I am under pressure from the executor of a property in Bruton to sign contracts within four weeks. What can I do to hasten the conveyancing process?
Where the seller is applying a tight deadline to exchange it is highly recommended that your lawyer is familiar with the area as they will make use of local relationships and knowledge. It is even conceivable that they would have transacted previoushomes in the same road. Therefore consider using a Bruton conveyancing solicitor. In addition, check that the lawyer is on the lender panel. It is believed that nearly one in five of Bruton conveyancing transactions are delayed or derailed after discovering a purchaser’s solicitor was not on their mortgage lender’s panel. This can often result in the legal transfer of property being frustrated by as much as 21 days. It is said that this issue affects approximately one hundred thousand home moves annually. Many Bruton conveyancing firms can not act for certain banks so do check as early as possible.

I am looking for a flat up to £305k and found one near me in Bruton I like with a park and transport links in the vicinity, however it's only got 52 remaining years left on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Bruton in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake purchasing a lease with such few years left?
Should you need a mortgage the shortness of the lease will be an issue. Reduce the price by the expected lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the existing owner has owned the property for at least twenty four months you could request that they start the process of the extension and pass it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the current lease with a zero ground rent applied. You should speak to your conveyancing solicitor about this.
