I decided to go with a Warwickshire based firm for our conveyancing in Warwickshire recently. Reviewing the Ts and Cs I noteI am responsible for costs even if the dealdoes not happen. Would I be best advised to instruct an on-line firm promoting no-sale-no-fee conveyancing in Warwickshire?

It is usually ‘give and take’ in that if "No Completion No Fee" is advertised then the conveyancing charges will generally be uplifted to counteract the conveyances that do not go ahead. Do bear in mind that such schemes rarely protect you from expenses e.g. Warwickshire conveyancing search fees.

Should commercial conveyancing searches reveal proposed roadworks that could impact a commercial site in Warwickshire?

Many commercial conveyancing solicitors in Warwickshire will order a SiteSolutions Highways report as it dramatically cuts the time that conveyancers expend in researching accurate data on highways that impact buildings and development assets in Warwickshire. The search result provides definitive information on the adoption status of roads, footpaths and verges, as well as the implication of traffic schemes and the rights of way surrounding a commercial development sites in Warwickshire.

For each commercial conveyancing transaction in Warwickshire it is critical to investigate the adoption status of roads surrounding a site. The absence of identifying developments where adoption procedures have not been addressed adequately could result in delays to Warwickshire commercial conveyancing transactions as well as pose a risk to future plans for the site. These searches are not conducted for domestic conveyancing in Warwickshire.

I have recentlybecome aware that Action Conveyancing have closed. They carried out my conveyancing in Warwickshire for a purchase of a freehold house 9 months ago. How can I be sure that the property is not still registered in the name of the former proprietor?

The easiest method to see if the premises is registered to you, you can carry out a search of the land registry (£3.00). You can either do this yourself or ask a law firm to do this for you. If you are not registered you can seek help from one of a number of Warwickshire conveyancing specialists.

Over the last few months I have been searching for a flat up to £235,500 and identified one near me in Warwickshire I like with a park and transport links in the vicinity, however it only has 49 remaining years left on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Warwickshire in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error purchasing 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 amount the lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the existing owner has owned the property for a minimum of 2 years 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 term and have £0 ground rent by law. You should consult your conveyancing solicitor about this.

My folks are unable to locate their Warwickshire land registry title on the website. They recall that fifty years ago when they bought the property there were complications concerning Warwickshire not being identified on some systems.

The vast majority of properties in Warwickshire should appear. Have you limited your search with simply the postcode. Normally it should disclose all the properties inside the postcode. Where registered it will be there with a title number. If they bought back in the 60’s it's conceivable it may be unrecorded. The address could still be revealed but with the title number shown 'na'. In this scenario you will need to locate the original title documentation which might be with your parent’s lender.
