We went with a local firm for our conveyancing in Rushden recently. Reviewing the Ts and Cs I noteI am responsible for fees even if our purchase doesn't happen. Should I go with them or select a web based firm advertising no completion no cost conveyancing in Rushden?

I am due to exchange contracts on my flat. I had a double glazing fitted in November 2007, but did not receive a FENSA certificate or Building Regulation Certificate. My buyer's mortgage company, Leeds Building Society are being a right pain. The Rushden solicitor who is on the Leeds Building Society conveyancing panel is saying indemnity insurance will be fine but Leeds Building Society are insisting on a building regulation certificate. Why do Leeds Building Society have a conveyancing panel if they don't accept advice from them?

It is probably the case that Leeds Building Society have referred the matter to their valuer. The reason why Leeds Building Society may not want to accept indemnity insurance is because it does not give them any reassurance that the double glazing was correctly and safely installed. The indemnity insurance merely protects against enforcement action which is very unlikely anyway.

I have been on the look out for a ground for flat up to £235,500 and identified one near me in Rushden I like with open areas and railway links nearby, however it only has 51 years on the lease. There is not much else in Rushden in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error buying a lease with such few years left?

Should you need a home loan that many years may be problematic. Discount the offer by the anticipated lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the current owner has owned the premises for a minimum of 2 years you may request that they commence the lease extension formalities and pass it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the existing lease term and have £0 ground rent by law. You should consult your conveyancing solicitor about this matter.

My uncle has encouraged me to instruct his lawyers for conveyancing in Rushden. Do I follow his advice?

If all goes to plan we aim to complete our sale of a £375,000 maisonette in Rushden in 5 days. The management company has quoted £372 for Landlord’s certificate, insurance certificate and 3 years statements of service charge. Is it legal for a freeholder to charge an administration fee for a leasehold conveyance in Rushden?

For the majority of leasehold sales in Rushden conveyancing will involve, questions about the management of a building inevitably needing to be answered directly by the freeholder or its agent, this includes :

    Answering pre-contract enquiries Where consent is required before sale in Rushden Copies of the building insurance and schedule Deeds of covenant upon sale Registering of the assignment of the change of lessee after a sale
Your conveyancer will have no control over the level of the charges for this information but the average costs for the information for Rushden leasehold property is £350. For Rushden conveyancing transactions it is customary for the seller to pay for these costs. The landlord or their agents are under no legal obligation to answer such questions most will be willing to do so - albeit often at exorbitant prices where the fees bear little relation to the work involved. Unfortunately there is no law that requires fixed charges for administrative tasks. Neither is there any legal time frame by which they are required to provide the information.

Rushden Leasehold Conveyancing - Examples of Queries before buying

    Its a good idea to find out as much as possible about the managing agents as they will either make living at the property much simpler or problematic. Being a leasehold owner you are often at the mercy of the managing agents both financially and when it comes to every day matters like the cleanliness of the communal areas. You should not be afraid to ask prospective neighbours what they think of their management. On a final note, find out the dates that the service charges are due to the appropriate party and precisely what it includes. Generally speaking the outlay for major works are not included within service charges, although there some managing agents in Rushden ask tenants to pay into a sinking fund and this is used to offset against major works. Best to be warned whether window replacement or some other major work is pending that will be shared between the leasehold owners and could well dramatically increase the the service costs or result in a one time invoice.
