The developer will be required to start the process by downloading the form and completing it. The form will therefore need to be available for the valuer at the time of his or her site visit. The form should be sent to the Skipton conveyancing panel solicitor as early as possible, in order to avoid any last minute delays, and no later than at exchange of contracts.

No doubt the best way to choose a conveyancing solicitor is to seek guidance from friends or relatives who have used the solicitor you're considering.

I have just appointed agents to market my ground floor flat in Uttoxeter. Conveyancing solicitors are to be appointed soon, however I have just received a yearly service charge demand – Do I pay up?

The sensible thing to do is clear the invoice as you normally would because all rents and service invoices should be allotted on completion, so you will be reimbursed by the buyer for the period running from after the completion date to the next payment date. Most managing agents 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. This will smooth the conveyancing process.

You have 59 years unexpired we estimate the premium for your lease extension to range between £20,900 and £24,200 plus professional fees.
