We instructed a Bilborough based firm for our conveyancing in Bilborough today. Upon checking the Ts and Cs I notewe are on the hook for fees even if the sale doesn't happen. Would I be best advised to use an on-line firm advertising no completion no cost conveyancing in Bilborough?

Generally there is a compromise along the lines that if "No Sale No Fee" is available then the conveyancing charges will generally be more expensive to cover those cases that abort. You should be mindful that such promotions tend not to protect you from outlay by way of example Bilborough conveyancing search fees.

At what point will exchange of contracts occur in domestic conveyancing in Bilborough and am I required to be at the conveyancers branch?

If you are near to one of the conveyancing solicitors in Bilborough you are invited in to sign the paperwork. However, the lender approved solicitors we work with supply a countrywide conveyancing service and provide as equally detailed and professional a job for you when communicating with you by post or email. The executing of the contract is not the point of no return. Signing on the dotted line is necessary for the solicitor to address the formalities when the time is right, which will usually be very shortly after signing. The exchange process is nowadays normally dealt with by telephone and can be very rapid, although where an extended "chain" is in play, since the process requires the relevant party's solicitor (not necessarily a conveyancing solicitor in Bilborough)to be in the office available at the end of the phone to exchange contracts.

I decided to have a survey done on a property in Bilborough in advance of appointing conveyancers. I have been told that there is a flying freehold element to the property. Our surveyor has said that some mortgage companies may not give a mortgage on this type of house.

It varies from the lender to lender. Bank of Scotland has different instructions for example to Halifax. Should you wish to call us we can check via the relevant mortgage company. If you lender is happy to lend one our lawyers can assist as they are used to dealing with flying freeholds in Bilborough. Conveyancing can be more complicated and therefore you should check with your conveyancing solicitor in Bilborough to see if the conveyancing will be more expensive.

I purchased a split level flat in Bilborough, conveyancing was carried out June 2012. Can you give me give me an indication of the likely cost of a lease extension? Similar properties in Bilborough with an extended lease are worth £181,000. The average or mid-range amount of ground rent is £55 invoiced annually. The lease runs out on 21st October 2075

With just 50 years left to run the likely cost is going to be between £32,300 and £37,400 as well as professional fees.

The figure above a general guide to costs for extending a lease, but we cannot give you a more accurate figure in the absence of detailed investigations.

There are no doubt other concerns that need to be taken into account and clearly you should be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. Neither should you move forward placing reliance on this information before getting professional advice.
