As someone with no idea as to conveyancing in Norwood what is the number one tip you can give me concerning the legal transfer of property in Norwood
You may not hear this from too many lawyers but conveyancing in Norwood and elsewhere in is often a confrontational experience. Put another way, when it comes to conveyancing there exists plenty of room for friction between you and others involved in the transaction. For instance, the vendor, selling agent and on occasion your mortgage company. Selecting a solicitor for your conveyancing in Norwood is a critical decision as your conveyancer is your adviser, and is the SOLE person in the transaction whose role it is to act in your legal interests and to keep you safe.
Every so often a third party with a vested interest may try and persuade you that you should follow their advice. For example, the selling agent may claim to be assisting by claiming that your lawyer is dragging his heels. Or your financial adviser may advise you to do something that is contrary to your conveyancers advice. You should always trust your lawyer above all other parties in the conveyancing process.

I am looking for a leasehold apartment up to £195,000 and identified one round the corner in Norwood I like with open areas and station nearby, the downside is that it's only got 61 years on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Norwood suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake buying a lease with such few years left?
If you need a home loan the remaining unexpired lease term may be problematic. Discount the offer by the anticipated lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the current owner has owned the premises for a minimum of 2 years you can request that they start the process of the extension and then assign it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the current lease with a zero ground rent applied. You should consult your conveyancing lawyer about this.
