Recently contacted my conveyancing lawyer in Kempshott who completed the legal work two years ago requesting a conveyancing estimate based on the same type of house sale & purchase (a leasehold property and a freehold premises) of similar values with a loan from Skipton Building Society. I am now being charged double. Should I look for an alternative property lawyer?

Remember to enquire the conveyancer can also act for Skipton Building Society.

About to purchase a new build flat in Kempshott. Conveyancing is a frightening process at the best of times but I have never purchased a new build flat before. What sort of enquires would be asked in new build conveyancing.
Here is a sample of a few leasehold new build questions that you may expect your new-build leasehold conveyancing in Kempshott
-
If there are lifts in the building, please confirm that the owners of flats on the ground and basement floors will not be required to contribute towards the cost of maintenance and renewal. Please confirm the Lease plans are architect prepared. Forfeiture - bankruptcy or liquidation must not apply under this provision. There must be mutual enforceability of lessee’s covenants. The Vendor must covenant to keep unoccupied units in good repair until long leases are granted therefore.
Over the last few months I have been searching for a ground for flat up to £235,500 and found one round the corner in Kempshott I like with amenity areas and station in the vicinity, the downside is that it only has 49 years on the lease. There is not much else in Kempshott in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake purchasing a lease with such few years left?
If you require a home loan that many years will likely be an issue. Reduce the offer by the anticipated lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the current owner has owned the property for a minimum of twenty four months you can ask them to commence the lease extension formalities and pass it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the existing lease and have £0 ground rent by law. You should speak to your conveyancing lawyer about this.
