When will exchange of contracts happen for purchase conveyancing in Nag's Head and do I need to be at the lawyers office?

If you are local to one of the conveyancing solicitors in Nag's Head you are welcome to attend to sign the paperwork. However, the firms we recommend supply countrywide coverage for conveyancing and give just as diligent and professional a job for you when communicating with you digitally. The signing of the purchase agreement is not the important part. A signed contract is just a prerequisite for the solicitor to exchange contracts at the appropriate time, which is ordinarily shortly after signing. The exchange process is nowadays normally dealt with by telephone and can be very rapid, although where a long "chain" is involved, since the process requires the relevant party's solicitor (not necessarily a conveyancing solicitor in Nag's Head)to be in the office at the appropriate time.

Yesterday I discovered that there is a flying freehold element on a house I put an offer in two weeks back in what was supposed to be a quick, no chain conveyancing. Nag's Head is the location of the property. Can you shed any light on this issue?

Flying freeholds in Nag's Head are rare but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even though you don't necessarily need a conveyancing solicitor in Nag's Head you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds diligently. Your mortgage company may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Nag's Head may ascertain that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold property.

My husband and I are 14 days into a freehold purchase having been directed to a firm by the estate agent to do our conveyancing in Nag's Head. We are not happy. Could you you assist me in finding new lawyers?

A lawyer would have to be really poor to suggest changing them. Has the loan offer been issued? If so you will need to inform them of the new contact details and have the loan are re-issued. Your new conveyancer needs to be on the lenders approved list to avoid added costs and frustration. So that should be your starting point.

I want to rent out my leasehold flat in Nag's Head. Conveyancing solicitor who did the purchase is retired - so can't ask him. Is permission from the freeholder required?

A small minority of properties in Nag's Head do contain a provision to say that subletting is only permitted with prior consent from the landlord. The landlord cannot unreasonably withhold but, in such cases, they would need to review references. Experience dictates that problems are usually caused by unsatisfactory tenants rather than owner-occupiers and for that reason you can expect the freeholder to take up the references and consider them carefully before granting consent.

I have attempted and failed to negotiate with my landlord to extend my lease without success. Can I make an application to the Leasehold Valuation Tribunal? Can you recommend a Nag's Head conveyancing firm to help?

in cases where there is a absentee landlord or where there is disagreement about what the lease extension should cost, under the relevant statutes it is possible to make an application to the First-tier Tribunal (Property Chamber) to arrive at the sum to be paid.

An example of a Freehold Enfranchisement case for a Nag's Head flat is 51 Lorne Road in November 2009. The price Payable as decided by the tribunal for the freehold reversion was £27,000. The valuation follows the order of the County Court made on 3 April 2008 granting a vesting order. This case related to 1 flat. The remaining number of years on the lease was 71 years.
