The North Cave conveyancing firm that I recently instructed on my purchase in North Cave have suddenly shut down. I chose them because I needed a solicitor on the RBS conveyancing panel and my family North Cave lawyer was not. I wrote them a cheque for £250 in advance. What are my options?
Assuming that you have an Estate Agent in the equation then let them know straight away so that they advise the vendors that there may be a slight delay due to the problems encountered. Most sellers would be sympathetic and urge their lawyer to send a new set of papers to your new solicitors. You will need to appoint new lawyers that are on the RBS conveyancing panel and notify the lender. If you have paid over any money, it will hopefully be held by the SRA as money in an intervened firm's bank accounts is transferred to the SRA. Then, the SRA or the intervention agent looks at the intervened firm's accounts to work out who the money belongs to. To claim your money you will need to contact the SRA. If the SRA cannot return money you are owed from the firm's bank accounts, or if they can only return part of the money, you can apply to the Compensation Fund for a grant. Your new solicitors should be in a position to help.

You should be aware if it is less than eighty years it will affect the marketability of the flat. Check with your mortgage company that they are content with residual term of the lease. A short lease means that you will probably have to extend the lease at some point and you need to have some idea of how much this would cost. For most North Cavelease extensions you would need to own the property for two years in order to be legally able to extend the lease. The best form of lease structure is if the freehold reversion is owned by the leaseholders. In this scenario the leaseholders enjoy being in charge if their destiny and notwithstanding that a managing agent is often employed if the building is bigger than a house conversion, the managing agent acts for the leaseholders themselves. In the main the outlay for major works tend not to be incorporated into the maintenance charges, although a few managing agents in North Cave obliged leaseholders to pay into a reserve fund created for the specific purpose of building a fund for major works.
