As someone unfamiliar with conveyancing in Hackenthorpe what is your top tip you can impart for the ownership transfer in Hackenthorpe

Not many law firms or advisers will tell you this but conveyancing in Hackenthorpe and elsewhere in South Yorkshire is an adversarial process. Put another way, when it comes to conveyancing there exists lots of room for confrontation between you and others involved in the transaction. E.g., the vendor, estate agent and on occasion your bank. Choosing a solicitor for your conveyancing in Hackenthorpe should not be taken lightly as your conveyancer is your adviser, and is the ONLY person in the legal process whose responsibility is to look after your best interests and to keep you safe.

Sometimes a third party with a vested interest will attempt to persuade you that it is in your interests to do things their way. For instance, the estate agent may claim to be assisting by suggesting your solicitor is wrong. Or your financial adviser may try to convince you to do take action that is contrary to your lawyers guidance. You should always trust your lawyer above all other parties in the conveyancing process.

I only have Seventy years unexpired on my lease in Hackenthorpe. I am keen to get lease extension but my landlord is missing. What options are available to me?

On the basis that you qualify, under the Leasehold Reform, Housing and Urban Development Act 1993 you can submit an application to the County Court for an order to dispense with the service of the initial notice. This will mean that your lease can be extended by the Court. However, you will be required to prove that you have used your best endeavours to track down the freeholder. For most situations a specialist may be useful to carry out a search and to produce an expert document which can be accepted by the court as evidence that the freeholder is indeed missing. It is wise to seek advice from a solicitor both on devolving into the landlord’s disappearance and the vesting order request to the County Court covering Hackenthorpe.
