I just acquired a flat at auction in Leyland. Conveyancing is needed. What are my next steps?

Now that you are exchanged you must choose a conveyancing practitioner soon as you are faced with a pending deadline in which to complete the transaction. Every auction property will ordinarily have a corresponding legal pack. This will likely include evidence of title and search results. Where you are dealing with leasehold property the conveyancing papers should contain a copy of the lease, management information and a sellers leasehold information form and other conveyancing documentation specific to a leasehold property. You need to hand this to your appointed conveyancing solicitor ASAP. You also need to ensure that your finances are organised to complete on the date specified in the contract.

We have agreed to purchase a house in Leyland. An unusual aspect is that the roof has a solar panel. Nottingham have issued a mortgage offer so presumably this is not a concern to them. Why is my solicitor raising questions about the panel?

Given that your lender is Nottingham your lawyer must check the formal requirements set out in Section two of UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook for Nottingham. The CML Handbook includes minimum specifications for solar panel roof-space leases, and property lawyers are required to report to Nottingham where a lease fails to satisfy these specifications. The conditions relate to the installation of panels on properties in England and Wales and is not limited to Leyland.

The estate agent has sent us the confirmation of our purchase of a new build apartment in Leyland. Conveyancing is daunting at the best of times but I have never purchased a new build flat before. Can you give me some examples of some of the questions asked in new build conveyancing.

    Has the Lease plan been approved by the Land Registry and if not when will they be lodged for this purpose? Where service of notices and proceedings can be at the property demised please confirm that this can be amended to include simultaneous services at the Lessees’ solicitors’ offices where the Lessee from time to time is not resident in the UK - such solicitors may be varied by notice in writing to the Landlord from time to time but otherwise will be as previously specified.

Yesterday I discovered that there is a flying freehold element on a house I put an offer in last month in what was supposed to be a quick, no chain conveyancing. Leyland is the location of the property. Can you offer any guidance?

Flying freeholds in Leyland are unusual but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even though you don't necessarily need a conveyancing solicitor in Leyland you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds diligently. Your mortgage company may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Leyland may ascertain that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold residence.

I am looking into buying my first house which is in Leyland and I am already nervous. I couldn't find anything specific about Leyland. Conveyancing will be needed in due course but do you know about the Leyland area? or perhaps some other tips you can share?
