My partner and I are downsizing from our home in Edwinstowe and the buyers lawyers are claiming that there is a risk of it being constructed land that was not decontaminated. Any local lawyer would know that there is no such problem. It does beg the question why the buyers used a nationwide conveyancing firm as opposed to a conveyancing solicitor in Edwinstowe. We have lived in Edwinstowe for 4 years we know of no issue. Do we contact our local Authority to obtain confirmation that there is no issue.

It sounds as though you may have a conveyancing firm already. Are they able to advise? You need to check with your lawyer before you do anything.

I have been on the look out for a ground for flat up to £305k and found one close by in Edwinstowe I like with a park and transport links nearby, however it's only got 51 remaining years left on the lease. There is not much else in Edwinstowe for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake buying a lease with such few years left?

If you require a mortgage that many years will be problematic. Reduce the offer by the anticipated lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the existing proprietor has owned the premises for a minimum of twenty four months you may request that they commence the lease extension formalities and then assign it to you. You can add 90 years to the existing lease term with a zero ground rent applied. You should speak to your conveyancing lawyer concerning this matter.

My estate agent has recommended their property lawyer for our conveyancing in Edwinstowe - won’t it be better to just use them?
