I have given 8 weeks notice to my current landlord and must be out of my rented property in Upton Park by the end of next month. Conveyancing on my purchase is underway. How realistic is it to complete in 4 weeks as I wish to avoid having to move into temporary accommodation?
It is unwise to serve notice on a rental unless exchange of contracts has taken place. Assuming that you have not previously done so, update to your lawyer and urge them to they chase the sellers side, try to get a realistic time scale from them that everyone will aim towards
My conveyancer has informed me that absentee landlord insurance is necessary on my purchase. What is the level of cover for Upton Park conveyancing?
The appropriate level of absentee landlord indemnity insurance should be dictated by who your lender. It would differ for example between Santander and Skipton Building Society. Conveyancing lawyers as opposed to members of the public take out such insurances.
My wife and I have arranged the release of further funds on our mortgage from Santander as we wish to carry out improvements to our house in Upton Park. Are we obliged to select a nearby Upton Park solicitor on the Santander conveyancing panel to deal with the paperwork?
Santander don't usually appoint a member of their conveyancing panel to deal with such a matter. If they do require any legal work then you would need to ensure that such a lawyer was on the Santander panel.
About to purchase flat in Upton Park. I have received an online quote from a licenced conveyancer, which states: "There will be no charge for dealing with the Building Society if you are obtaining a mortgage". I take this to mean that there will be no additional fee if the solicitor is on the Co-operative conveyancing panel. I wanted to make sure it means there will be no additional fees for dealing with the mortgage.
They are simply saying that the cost for acting for the lender is included in the fee being quoted. It is worth you checking that the Upton Park property lawyer is on the Co-operative conveyancing panel.

Please supply a car parking plan. The Lease must contain a provision on behalf of the Vendor to pay the service charges in respect of unoccupied units in order to ensure that all services can be provided. Where there is an Undertaking being granted there is the risk of forfeiture of the Headlease subject to relief if one or more of the Underlessees are willing to accept the original Head Lessee’s obligations as otherwise relief will be denied to the Underlessees. The only alternatives are the Head Lessor agreeing not to forfeit the Headlease or the Head Lessee guaranteeing to the Underlessees that it will not be in breach of the Headlease. The Vendor must covenant to keep unoccupied units in good repair until long leases are granted therefore. Where service of notices and proceedings can be at the property demised please confirm that this can be amended to include simultaneous services at the Lessees’ solicitors’ offices where the Lessee from time to time is not resident in the UK - such solicitors may be varied by notice in writing to the Landlord from time to time but otherwise will be as previously specified.

The primary upside of using a high street Upton Park conveyancing practice is that you can visit the firm to execute documents, hand in your identification documents and apply pressure on them where appropriate. Having local Upton Park know how is a benefit. That being said nothing is more important than finding someone that will do a good and efficient job. If other friends have used your friend and the majority were content that must surpass using an unknown Upton Park conveyancing lawyer solely due to them being Upton Park based.
Estate agents have just been given the go-ahead to market my basement flat in Upton Park.Conveyancing solicitors are to be appointed soon however I have recently had a yearly service charge invoice – Do I pay up?
It best that you clear the maintenance contribution as normal because all rents and maintenance charges will be apportionedon completion, so you should recover the relevant percentage by the buyer for the period running from after the completion date to the next payment date. Most management companies will not acknowledge the buyer until the service charges have been paid and are up to date so it is important for both buyer and seller for the seller to show that they are up to date. Having a clear account will assist your cause and will leave you no worse off financially
