My partner’s dad is a conveyancer. I anticipate that I'll be able to get friends and family pricing for conveyancing, However if that does not come through, what level of costs should I be paying for conveyancing in Eden Park?
It’s wise to look for multiple conveyancing quotes. Do use our search tool on this page. You will notice that estimates will contrast greatly but service levels do are distinct between conveyancers as is the case with most professions
Forgive me if this question is silly but I am unexperienced as FTB of a two bedroom flat in Eden Park.Do I collect the keys to the property on the completion date from my lawyer? If this is the case, I will appoint a High Street conveyancing solicitor in Eden Park?
There is no need to visit the lawyers office on the day of completion. Conveyancing lawyers for you will electronically transfer the purchase money to the vendor’s solicitors, and shortly after the monies have arrived, you will be called to collect the keys from the selling Agents and move into your new home. Usually this occurs between 1 and 3pm.
I have been on the look out for a flat up to £235,500 and found one round the corner in Eden Park I like with open areas and transport links nearby, however it only has 51 remaining years left on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Eden Park in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake buying a short lease?
If you need a home loan the remaining unexpired lease term will likely be a potential deal breaker. Discount the price by the expected lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the existing proprietor has owned the property for at least twenty four months you can request that they start the process of the extension and then assign it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the current lease with a zero ground rent applied. You should consult your conveyancing lawyer regarding this matter.
