I am buying a property mortgage free in Rishton. I have been living for the previous 15 years in Rishton. Conveyancing searches are expensive. Given that I know the road and vicinity very well must I have all the conveyancing searches?
Provided that you do not need a mortgage, then almost all of the Rishton conveyancing searches are non-obligatory. Your solicitor will ’encourage you, no-doubt strongly, that you should have searches completed, but she is duty bound to do this. One thing to bear in mind; if you are going to sell the house one day, it will be of interest to your future buyer what the searches reveal. There are plenty of instances where properties with functional issues can still show up detrimental search results. A good conveyancing solicitor in Rishton will provide you some constructive guidance concerning this.
Should commercial conveyancing searches reveal proposed roadworks that may impact a commercial property in Rishton?
Its becoming the norm that commercial conveyancing solicitors in Rishton will order a SiteSolutions Highways report as it reduces the time that conveyancers invest in investigating accurate data on highways that impact buildings and development assets in Rishton. The search result provides definitive data on the adoption status of roads, footpaths and verges, as well as the implication of traffic schemes and the rights of way surrounding a commercial development sites in Rishton.

Failure to identify developments where adoption procedures have not been addressed adequately may cause delays to Rishton commercial conveyancing deals as well as present a risk to future intentions for the site. These searches are not carried out for domestic conveyancing in Rishton.

Our conveyancer has advised that he intends to complete and exchange simultaneously on the sale of our £350,000 maisonette in Rishton in 8 days. The management company has quoted £336 for Landlord’s certificate, insurance certificate and 3 years statements of service charge. Is it legal for a freeholder to charge exorbitant fees for a flat conveyance in Rishton?
Rishton conveyancing on leasehold flats normally involves the purchaser’s solicitor sending questions for the landlord to answer. Although the landlord is not legally bound to answer such questions most will be content to do so. They are entitled to invoice a reasonable charge 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 situations it exceeds £800. The administration charge required by the landlord must be sent together with a synopsis of rights and obligations in respect of administration fees, otherwise the charge is not strictly payable. Reality however dictates that you have little choice but to pay whatever is demanded should you wish to exchange contracts with the buyer.

With only 58 years left to run we estimate the price of your lease extension to span between £23,800 and £27,400 plus plus your own and the landlord's "reasonable" professional fees.
The figure that we have given is a general guide to costs for renewing a lease, but we are not able to supply a more accurate figure in the absence of comprehensive investigations. You should not use the figures in tribunal or court proceedings. There may be additional issues that need to be taken into account and you obviously want to be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. Neither should you take any other action based on this information before seeking the advice of a professional.
