We previously chose conveyancers locally in Stanford Le Hope on the Skipton solicitor panel. They have just billed me a further fee for the legal aspects of the Skipton mortgage. Is this an additional conveyancing fee specified by Skipton?
Provided it is contained in their Terms and Conditions or Quote then yes your property lawyer is entitled to charge a fee for this. The charge is not dictated by Skipton but by your Stanford Le Hope solicitor. Plenty of firms on the Skipton panel will charge ’dealing with mortgage’ fee but many practices include it on their overall fee.
Can I be sure that the Stanford Le Hope conveyancing solicitor on the TSB panel is any good?

Over the last few months I have been searching for a leasehold apartment up to £245,000 and identified one near me in Stanford Le Hope I like with amenity areas and station in the vicinity, the downside is that it only has 49 remaining years left on the lease. There is not much else in Stanford Le Hope in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error buying a lease with such few years left?
If you need a mortgage the remaining unexpired lease term will be an issue. Reduce the offer by the expected lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the current proprietor has owned the property for a minimum of twenty four months you can ask them to commence the lease extension formalities and then assign 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 speak to your conveyancing solicitor regarding this.
We are a couple of weeks into a residential purchase having been directed to conveyancers by the high street agent to handle our conveyancing in Stanford Le Hope. I am am very frustrated with the level of service. Could you help me find new lawyers?

I only have 62 years left on my lease in Stanford Le Hope. I now want to get lease extension but my freeholder is missing. What are my options?
On the basis that you qualify, under the Leasehold Reform, Housing and Urban Development Act 1993 you can apply to the County Court for an order to dispense with the service of the initial notice. This will enable the lease to be extended by the Court. You will be obliged to prove that you or your lawyers have made all reasonable attempts to locate the freeholder. On the whole an enquiry agent should be useful to conduct investigations and to produce an expert document to be accepted by the court as proof that the landlord can not be located. It is wise to seek advice from a property lawyer in relation to devolving into the landlord’s absence and the vesting order request to the County Court overseeing Stanford Le Hope.
I bought a split level flat in Stanford Le Hope, conveyancing was carried out in 2006. Can you let me have an estimate of the premium that my landlord can legally expect in return for granting a renewal of my lease? Corresponding flats in Stanford Le Hope with an extended lease are worth £255,000. The ground rent is £45 invoiced every year. The lease finishes on 21st October 2100
You have 74 years unexpired we estimate the price of your lease extension to be between £8,600 and £9,800 plus plus your own and the landlord's "reasonable" professional fees.
The suggested premium range above a general guide to costs for renewing a lease, but we cannot give you the actual costs in the absence of comprehensive investigations. Do not use this information in tribunal or court proceedings. There are no doubt other concerns that need to be taken into account and you obviously should be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. Please do not take any other action based on this information without first seeking the advice of a professional.
