Is there a reason why leasehold purchase conveyancing in Wembley is more expensive?
In short, leasehold conveyancing in Wembley and North West London usually warrants more work compared to freehold conveyancing. This includes checking the lease terms, corresponding with the landlord about serving appropriate notices, procuring up-to-date service charge and management information, obtaining the landlord’s consents and reviewing management accounts. The obligations on both the landlord and the tenant in the lease need to be studied by the buyer’s conveyancing team and read from beginning to end – no matter how many different leaseholders have owned the lease since it was first granted.
I am considering refinancing my apartment in Wembley, does my lawyer have to be on the Nationwide Solicitor panel?

Can you offer any advice when it comes to finding a Wembley conveyancing firm to carry out our lease extension conveyancing?

I pay a service charge for my appartment in Wembley. As a result of personal circumstances I slipped into arrears with payments. I negotiated a settlement schedule but there remains two remaining in arrears.
I want to sell and I am nervous that this will threaten to derail the sale if I have to settle the amount due in advance. I'd like to sell up and subsequently pay them back with the proceeds - is this achievable?
You should speak with the solicitor undertaking your Wembley conveyancing but it might be possible to arrange for the outstanding amount to be passed to the purchasers. The final price payable would be reduced to reflect the amount of debt they assume. They could then deal with the arrears following completion of the sale.
