We are getting the release of further funds on our mortgage from Principality as we want to carry out renovations to our property in Lutterworth. Do we need to select a bricks and mortar Lutterworth solicitor on the Principality conveyancing panel to deal with the legals?

I am downsizing from our property in Lutterworth and the buyers lawyers are claiming that there is a risk of it being constructed on contaminated land. A local lawyer would know this is not the case.

We have lived in Lutterworth for 5 years we know of no issue. Should we contact our local Authority to seek confirmation that the buyers are looking for.

It sounds as though you may have a conveyancing firm currently acting for you. Are they able to advise? You need to enquire of your lawyer before you do anything. It is very possible that once the local authority has been informed of a potential issue it cannot be insured against (a bit like being diagnosed with a serious illness and then taking out life insurance to cover that same illness)

Over the last few months I have been searching for a leasehold apartment up to £235,500 and found one close by in Lutterworth I like with open areas and railway links in the vicinity, however it's only got 52 years unexpired on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Lutterworth for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake purchasing a lease with such few years left?

If you require a home loan the remaining unexpired lease term will be a potential deal breaker. Discount the price by the expected lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the existing owner has owned the premises for at least 2 years you can request that they start the process of the extension and pass it to you. You can add 90 years to the current lease with a zero ground rent applied. You should consult your conveyancing solicitor regarding this.

I've found a house that appears to tick a lot of boxes, at a great figure which is making it all the more appealing. I have just found out that it's a leasehold as opposed to freehold. I am assuming that there are particular concerns buying a leasehold house in Lutterworth. Conveyancing lawyers have are soon to be appointed. Will they explain the issues?

Most houses in Lutterworth are freehold rather than leasehold. In this scenario it’s worth having a local solicitor who is familiar with the area who can assist with the conveyancing process. We note that you are buying in Lutterworth in which case you should be looking for a Lutterworth conveyancing solicitor and check that they are used to transacting on leasehold houses. First you will need to check the unexpired lease term. Being a lessee you will not be entirely free to do whatever you want to the property. The lease comes with conditions such as requiring the freeholder’sconsent to carry out alterations. You may also be required to pay a maintenance charge towards the upkeep of the communal areas where the property is located on an estate. Your solicitor should appraise you on the various issues.

I am the registered owner of a 1 bedroom flat in Lutterworth, conveyancing having been completed May 1997. Can you please calculate a probable premium for a statutory lease extension? Comparable properties in Lutterworth with over 90 years remaining are worth £185,000. The ground rent is £65 yearly. The lease ceases on 21st October 2086

You have 60 years left to run we estimate the price of your lease extension to span between £20,000 and £23,000 as well as professional fees.

The suggested premium range that we have given is a general guide to costs for extending a lease, but we are not able to advice on a more accurate figure without more detailed due diligence. Do not use the figures in tribunal or court proceedings. There may be other issues that need to be considered and clearly you should be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. Neither should you take any other action based on this information without first getting professional advice.
