Having had my offer accepted I require leasehold conveyancing in Wadhurst. Before I set the wheels in motion I would like to find out the unexpired term of the lease.
Assuming the lease is recorded at the land registry - and almost all are in Wadhurst - then the leasehold title will always include the short particulars of the lease, namely the date; the term; and the original parties. From a conveyancing perspective such details then enable any prospective buyer and lender to confirm that any lease they are looking at is the one relevant to that title. For any other purpose, such as confirming how long the term was granted for and calculating what is left, then the register should be sufficient on it's own.
Wadhurst Conveyancing for Leasehold Flats - Examples of Questions you should consider Prior to buying

The answer will be helpful as a) areas could cause problems in the block as the common areas may start to deteriorate where services remain unpaid b) if the tenants have an issue with the managing agents you will want to have all the details It would be wise to find out as much as you can regarding the managing agents as they will either make life much simpler or problematic. Being a leasehold owner you will be at the mercy of the managing agents from a financial perspective and when it comes to every day matters such as the upkeep of the communal areas. You should not be shy to ask other people if they are happy with them. Finally, investigate as to the dates that the service charges are due to the managing agents and specifically what it includes. What is the the remaining lease term?
My wife and I are purchasing a garden flat in Wadhurst. At the point of instructing our conveyancing practitioner, they told us that they were on all mainstream bank panels. Our mortgage broker emailed yesterday to say that they don't appear to be on the HSBC approved list. Should that be true, what should we do? Should we simply pick a different conveyancing practitioner that is on their approved list or do we pay for dual representation, with HSBC appointing their own approved lawyer.
When buying a property with the benefit of a mortgage it is usual for the purchaser’s lawyers to also represent the purchaser's lender. In order to act for a bank or building society a conveyancing practitioner has to be on that lender's conveyancing panel. An application has to be made by the lawyer to the lender to become a member of the lender's panel and there are increasingly strict conditions which the conveyancer has to meet. Some lenders now require their panel members to be part of the Law Society’s Conveyancing Quality Scheme. Your solicitor should contact HSBC and see if they can apply for membership of their conveyancing panel, but if that is not viable they will instruct their own lawyers to represent them. You don't have to instruct a firm on HSBC's conveyancing panel and you may continue to use your own Wadhurst solicitors, in which case it will likely add costs, and it may delay matters as you have another set of people involved.
