I am aiming to move house in November. Does my conveyancing solicitor communicate with the removal company on the completion day. Incidentally, can you put forward a removal company in Marylebone. Conveyancing firm was found before I stumbled across your website.

I have been on the look out for a ground for flat up to £235,500 and found one round the corner in Marylebone I like with amenity areas and railway links in the vicinity, the downside is that it's only got 51 years on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Marylebone for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error acquiring a short lease?

If you need a mortgage that many years will be a potential deal breaker. Discount the offer by the expected lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the current proprietor has owned the property for at least twenty four months you can request that they commence the lease extension formalities and pass it to you. You can add 90 years to the current lease with a zero ground rent applied. You should speak to your conveyancing solicitor concerning this matter.

Our conveyancer has advised that he intends to complete and exchange simultaneously on the disposal of our £350,000 flat in Marylebone on Wednesday in a week. The management company has quoted £348 for Certificate of Compliance, building insurance schedule and 3 years service charge statements. Is the landlord entitled to charge such fees for a leasehold conveyance in Marylebone?

Marylebone conveyancing on leasehold flats usually involves the purchaser’s lawyer sending questions for the landlord to address. Although the landlord is under no legal obligation to address these enquiries most will be content to do so. They may charge a reasonable administration fee for responding to enquiries or supplying documentation. There is no upper cap for such fees. The average fee for the paperwork that you are referring to is over three hundred pounds, in some transactions it exceeds £800. The management information fee demanded by the landlord must be accompanied by a synopsis of entitlements and obligations in respect of administration fees, otherwise the charge is not strictly payable. Reality however dictates that you have no option but to pay whatever is demanded if you want to sell the property.
