We are intent on selling our house in Mudeford and according to the buyers it appears that there is a risk of it being constructed on contaminated land. A high street Mudeford lawyer would know that there is no such problem. It does beg the question why the buyers instructed a national conveyancing practice as opposed to a conveyancing solicitor in Mudeford. Having lived in Mudeford for 4 years we know that this is a non issue. Should we contact our local Authority to seek clarification need.
It sounds as though you may have a conveyancing firm currently acting for you. What do they say? You must 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 health insurance to cover that same illness)

What makes a Mudeford lease unmortgageable?
Leasehold conveyancing in Mudeford is not unique. Most leases are unique and drafting errors can sometimes mean that certain sections are erroneous. For example, if your lease is missing any of the following, it could be defective:
-
A provision for the recovery of money spent for the benefit of another party.
A defective lease will likely cause issues when trying to sell a property primarily because it impacts on the ability to obtain a mortgage on the property. HSBC Bank, Skipton Building Society, and Aldermore all have express conveyancing instructions when it comes to what is expected in a lease. If a mortgage lender believes that the lease does not cover certain provisions they may refuse to provide security, forcing the purchaser to withdraw.
