My apartment in Broughton is up for sale and I have a purchaser. Does my have to be required to be on the conveyancing panel in order to deal with paying off my mortgage?

Ordinarily, even if your lawyer is not on the conveyancing panel they can still act for you on your sale.

I am looking for a flat up to £195,000 and found one near me in Broughton I like with amenity areas and station nearby, however it's only got 51 remaining years left on the lease.

Should you require a mortgage the shortness of the lease will likely be a potential deal breaker. Reduce the price by the amount the lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the existing proprietor has owned the premises for a minimum of twenty four months you could request that they commence the lease extension formalities and pass it to you. You can add 90 years to the existing lease term with a zero ground rent applied. You should speak to your conveyancing solicitor concerning this matter.

Should one remove a deceased person's details from the title register for a house in Broughton?

If a Broughton property is co-owned and one of the proprietors dies, the name will not automatically be removed from the Land Registry title. It is not necessary to amend the title as when it comes to a sale you would just be asked to supply proof as to the reason the other owner is missing from the conveyance, usually this is in the form of a grant of probate.

With a view to making things smoother for the sale of the property you can apply to have the deceased party removed from the title entries by submitting an application to HMLR with evidence of the death. There is no land registry fee payable.
