AssumingI was to buy a freehold housein Little Bromwich for cash and have no survey and no local authority searches how much could I expect to to save on my conveyancing in Little Bromwich?

Any savings you would gain will be limited to the Little Bromwich conveyancing searches.

Is there a reason why leasehold purchase conveyancing in Little Bromwich costs more?

In short, leasehold conveyancing in Little Bromwich and elsewhere usually involve additional due diligence compared to freehold conveyancing. This includes lease investigation, liaising with the landlord concerning serving applicable notices, securing up-to-date service charge and management information, procuring the freeholder’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 – regardless of the fact the lease has passed through many different property solicitors hands since it was first granted.

Is it the case that all Little Bromwich conveyancing solicitors on the UBS conveyancing panel are overseen by the SRA?

As a firm of solicitors, in order to be on the UBS approved list of solicitors they would need to be governed by the Solicitors Regulatory Authority. Some banks do list licenced conveyancers on their panel in which case such organisation would be governed by the CLC.

Where there is an Undertaking being granted there is the risk of forfeiture of the Headlease subject to relief if one or more of the Underlessees are willing to accept the original Head Lessee’s obligations as otherwise relief will be denied to the Underlessees. The only alternatives are the Head Lessor agreeing not to forfeit the Headlease or the Head Lessee guaranteeing to the Underlessees that it will not be in breach of the Headlease. Please confirm the Lease plans are surveyor prepared. Where service of notices and proceedings can be at the property demised please confirm that this can be amended to include simultaneous services at the Lessees’ solicitors’ offices where the Lessee from time to time is not resident in the UK - such solicitors may be varied by notice in writing to the Landlord from time to time but otherwise will be as previously specified. There must be mutual enforceability of lessee’s covenants. Will control of the Management Company (if any) be handed over to purchasers on completion of the last sale or earlier?
