There is nothing unique when it comes to conveyancing in Market Deeping registration formalities.

I am attracted to a couple of apartments in Market Deeping which have about fifty years unexpired on the leases. Should I regard a short lease as a deal breaker?

A lease is a right to use the premises for a prescribed time frame. As a lease shortens the marketability of the lease reduces and results in it becoming more costly to acquire a lease extension. This is why it is often a good idea to increase the term of the lease. More often than not it is difficult to sell a property with a short lease because mortgage lenders may be reluctant to lend money on such properties. Lease enfranchisement can be a protracted process. We recommend you get professional help from a solicitor and surveyor with experience in this area.

I invested in buying a 1st floor flat in Market Deeping, conveyancing was carried out February 1996. Can you work out an approximate cost of a lease extension? Corresponding properties in Market Deeping with an extended lease are worth £207,000. The ground rent is £60 invoiced annually. The lease comes to an end on 21st October 2082

With only 57 years remaining on your lease we estimate the price of your lease extension to be between £28,500 and £33,000 plus costs.

The suggested premium range that we have given is a general guide to costs for renewing a lease, but we are not able to supply the actual costs without more comprehensive due diligence. You should not use this information in a Notice of Claim or as an informal offer. There may be additional concerns that need to be considered and clearly you should be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. Neither should you move forward based on this information without first getting professional advice.

Why can I not complete our conveyancing in Market Deeping on May bank holiday?

Because on completion the money needs to pass between the banks of the buyer and seller's solicitor and at present this can only occur on a working day. It is not possible to complete on a weekend either.
