I decided to go with a Moreton based solicitor for my conveyancing in Moreton last week. Upon checking the Terms it is apparent thatI am liable for fees even if the dealfalls through. Would I be best advised to choose a web based solicitor practice advertising no completion no cost conveyancing in Moreton?
It is usually ‘give and take’ in that if "No Completion No Fee" is available then the fee levels will generally be more expensive to cover those conveyances that do not proceed. You should be mindful that such promotions rarely cover disbursements by way of example Moreton conveyancing search expenses.
Our nephew is buying a new build apartment in Moreton with a mortgage from Santander. His conveyancer has said that there is a delay in receiving the ‘Disclosure of Incentive Form’. What is this document - I have never come across this before?
The form is intended to provide information to the main parties involved in the transaction. Therefore, it will be provided to your son’s lawyer who should be on the Santander conveyancing panel as a standard part of the process, and to the surveyor when requested. The developer will be required to start the process by downloading the form and completing it. The form will therefore need to be available for the valuer at the time of his or her site visit. The form should be sent to the Santander conveyancing panel solicitor as early as possible, in order to avoid any last minute delays, and no later than at exchange of contracts.
The estate agent has sent us the confirmation of our purchase of a new build flat in Moreton. Conveyancing is necessary evil 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 are examples of a few leasehold new build enquiries that you may expect your new-build leasehold conveyancing in Moreton
-
Forfeiture - bankruptcy or liquidation must not apply under this provision. Please supply evidence that the form of Lease proposed has been approved by the Land Registry.

I have been on the look out for a leasehold apartment up to £235,500 and found one near me in Moreton I like with a park and railway links in the vicinity, however it only has 49 remaining years left on the lease. There is not much else in Moreton for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake purchasing a lease with such few years left?
Should you require a mortgage the shortness of the lease will likely be problematic. Discount the offer by the anticipated lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the existing owner has owned the premises for at least 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 current lease with a zero ground rent applied. You should consult your conveyancing lawyer regarding this matter.

My wife and I may need to let out our Moreton garden flat for a while due to a new job. We instructed a Moreton conveyancing practice in 2002 but they have since shut and we did not think at the time seek any guidance as to whether the lease prohibits the subletting of the flat. How do we find out?
A small minority of properties in Moreton do contain a provision to say that subletting is only allowed with permission. The landlord is not entitled to unreasonably refuse but, in such cases, they would need to review references. Experience dictates that problems are usually caused by unsatisfactory tenants rather than owner-occupiers and for that reason you can expect the freeholder to take up the references and consider them carefully before granting permission.
I inherited a studio flat in Moreton, conveyancing formalities finalised half a dozen years ago. How much will my lease extension cost? Similar flats in Moreton with an extended lease are worth £185,000. The ground rent is £65 per annum. The lease expires on 21st October 2085
With only 61 years left to run we estimate the premium for your lease extension to be between £18,100 and £20,800 plus legals.
The suggested premium range that we have given is a general guide to costs for extending a lease, but we cannot give you the actual costs in the absence of detailed investigations. You should not use this information in tribunal or court proceedings. There are no doubt additional concerns that need to be considered and you obviously want to be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. You should not take any other action based on this information before getting professional advice.
