I have given 2 months notice to my existing landlord and have to be out of my let out property in Reddish by the end of next month. Conveyancing on my purchase has just started. How realistic is it to complete in 5 weeks as don't want to have to find temporary accommodation?
The normal practice is not to serve notice on a rental unless your lawyer suggests that you should. If you have not previously done so, speak to your conveyancer and request that they seek the assistance the owners lawyers, try to an acceptable time-line that everyone will aim towards

After shopping around on the internet I have found a Reddish solicitor having made sure that they are on the Barclays conveyancing panel. Does my lawyer arrange the survey of the property?
Barclays will need an independent valuation of the property. Your lawyer will not arrange this. Usually Barclays will appoint their own surveyor to do this, and you will have to pay for it. Remember that this is a valuation for mortgage purposes and not a survey. Your conveyancing practitioner will not organise the survey but they may be able to put you in touch with a local one that they recommend. RICS offers a find a surveyor service (just google it) where you can search for a qualified surveyor by your Reddish postcode. As you are getting a mortgage with Barclays, you could contact them to see if they have a list of approved surveyors in Reddish.
Yesterday I discovered that there is a flying freehold issue on a house I have offered on a fortnight ago in what should have been a straight forward, no chain conveyancing. Reddish is where the house is located. Can you shed any light on this issue?
Flying freeholds in Reddish are unusual but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even though you don't necessarily need a conveyancing solicitor in Reddish you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds very carefully. Your mortgage company may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Reddish 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.
