Should I be suspicious about third parties that I am dealing with are suggesting a nationwide conveyancing firm as opposed to a local Tottenham Hale conveyancing practice?
As is the case with lots of service providers, often suggestions from connections can be extremely useful or valuable. But there are lots of people with a keen interest in a conveyancing matter; estate agents, mortgage brokers and mortgage companies might all put forward conveyancers to retain. On occasion the solicitors might be known to one of the organisations as one of the best in their field, but sometimes there exists a commercial relationship behind the recommendation. You have the right to appoint your own conveyancer. You need to be aware that the majority of mortgage providers operate an approved list of lawyers you have to use for the mortgage aspect of your home move.
I today plan to offer on a house that appears to tick a lot of boxes, at a reasonable figure which is making it all the more appealing. I have subsequently been informed that it's a leasehold as opposed to freehold. I am assuming that there are particular concerns buying a leasehold house in Tottenham Hale. Conveyancing advisers have not yet been appointed. Will my lawyers set out the implications of buying a leasehold house in Tottenham Hale ?
The majority of houses in Tottenham Hale are freehold and not leasehold. In this scenario it’s worth having a local solicitor used to dealing with such properties who can help the conveyancing process. It is clear that you are buying in Tottenham Hale so you should seriously consider looking for a Tottenham Hale conveyancing solicitor and check that they are used to transacting on leasehold houses. First you will need to check the unexpired lease term. As a leaseholder you will not be entirely free to do whatever you want to the property. The lease will likely included provisions such as requiring the landlord’sconsent to conduct changes to the property. You may also be required to pay a service charge towards the maintenance of the communal areas where the property is part of an estate. Your solicitor should report to you on the legal implications.

I acquired a house in Tottenham Hale last 31/12/2024 and to date it is still not registered with the Land Registry. It is part of a new estate and my lawyer told me that it can take over a year to register. I have spoken with HM Land Registry directly and they say that the initial application was cancelled due to questions not being addressed in time. Should I be concerned?
