Is it necessary during the course of the conveyancing process to attend the offices of the solicitor to execute the legal charge? If so, I will choose one who does conveyancing in Tynemouth so that I can pop in to their offices if required.

Most conveyancing panel lawyers for banks undertake all of the communications through Royal Mail, internet or over phone calls.

I am looking for a flat up to £235,500 and identified one near me in Tynemouth I like with open areas and railway links in the vicinity, the downside is that it's only got 51 remaining years left on the lease. There is not much else in Tynemouth in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error acquiring a lease with such few years left?

Should you require a mortgage that many years may be a potential deal breaker. Reduce the price by the amount the lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the current owner has owned the premises for a minimum of twenty four months you may ask them to commence the lease extension formalities and then assign it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the current lease term with a zero ground rent applied. You should speak to your conveyancing solicitor concerning this.

I am tempted by the attractive purchase price for a two apartments in Tynemouth both have about 50 years unexpired on the lease term. Do I need to be concerned?

There are plenty of short leases in Tynemouth. The lease is a right to use the premises for a prescribed time frame. As the lease gets shorter the saleability of the lease decreases and results in it becoming more expensive to acquire a lease extension. For this reason it is advisable to increase the term of the lease. It is often difficult to sell a property with a short lease because mortgage companies may be unwilling to lend money on properties of this type. Lease extension can be a difficult process. We advise that you get professional assistance from a conveyancer and surveyor with experience in this field.

I invested in buying a leasehold flat in Tynemouth, conveyancing was carried out half a dozen years ago. Can you let me have an estimated range of the fair premium for a lease extension? Corresponding properties in Tynemouth with over 90 years remaining are worth £180,000. The average or mid-range amount of ground rent is £65 invoiced every year. The lease finishes on 21st October 2083

With 59 years left to run we estimate the price of your lease extension to span between £20,900 and £24,200 as well as plus your own and the landlord's "reasonable" professional fees.

The suggested premium range that we have given is a general guide to costs for renewing a lease, but we are not able to supply the actual costs in the absence of detailed investigations. Do not use the figures in a Notice of Claim or as an informal offer. There may be other issues that need to be considered and you obviously want to be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. Neither should you move forward placing reliance on this information without first seeking the advice of a professional.
