Your property lawyer will check the registered title as conveyancing in Heanor will occasionally reveal restrictions in the title documents which prevent categories of alterations or need the consent of another owner.

I can not fathom if my mortgage offer obliges me to make sure the lease term for the flat is extended prior to the completion date. I have called into my local Heanor building society branch on various occasions and was told they are content with the situation and they will lend. My Heanor conveyancing solicitor - who is on the mortgage company conveyancing panel- called and was told they would not lend based on their UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook minimum lease term requirements. Who do I believe?
Your has to follow the CML Handbook Part 2 specifications for your lender. Unless your lawyer obtains specific confirmation in writing that the lender will go ahead, your lawyer has no choice but to refrain from exchanging contract and committing you to the purchase. We would suggest that you ask the bank to contact your lawyer in writing confirming that they will accept the number of years remaining.

Do I need this when purchasing a house in Heanor? or I am told that there is an ancient law that could mean that owners of property residing in a parish church boundary will be compelled to contribute towards maintenance towards the chancel within the church.

Unless a prior purchase of the house took place post 12 October 2013 you could assume that solicitors carrying out conveyancing in Heanor to continue to suggest a chancel search and or chancel repair liability policy.
I am looking for a flat up to £245,000 and found one close by in Heanor I like with a park and transport links in the vicinity, the downside is that it only has 51 years unexpired on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Heanor for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake purchasing a short lease?
If you need a mortgage the shortness of the lease will be an issue. Reduce the offer by the expected lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the existing owner has owned the property for at least twenty four months you could request that they start the process of the extension and pass it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the current lease term with a zero ground rent applied. You should speak to your conveyancing solicitor concerning this matter.
