We are a fortnight into a leasehold purchase having been recommend to conveyancers by the high street agent to carry out the conveyancing in Boston. I am am starting to be dissatisfied with the level of service. Could you help me find new lawyers?
A conveyancer would need to be really poor to suggest diss instructing them. Has your loan offer been issued? If so you need to make them aware of the new contact details and get the loan are issued to the new lawyers. The conveyancer needs to be on the lenders panel to avoid added charges and delays.

Helen (my wife) and I may need to let out our Boston basement flat temporarily due to taking a sabbatical. We instructed a Boston conveyancing practice in 2002 but they have since shut and we did not have the foresight to get any guidance as to whether the lease permits subletting. How do we find out?
Some leases for properties in Boston do contain a provision to say that subletting is only allowed with permission. The landlord cannot unreasonably refuse 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 permission.
I inherited a 1 bedroom flat in Boston, conveyancing having been completed 9 years ago. Can you let me have an estimated range of the fair premium for a lease extension? Equivalent properties in Boston with over 90 years remaining are worth £176,000. The average or mid-range amount of ground rent is £50 per annum. The lease runs out on 21st October 2104
With just 80 years left to run we estimate the price of your lease extension to be between £7,600 and £8,800 plus professional fees.
The suggested premium range above a general guide to costs for extending a lease, but we are not able to provide a more accurate figure without more detailed due diligence. You should not use the figures in a Notice of Claim or as an informal offer. There are no doubt additional concerns that need to be considered and clearly you want to be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. Please do not move forward placing reliance on this information without first getting professional advice.
What should I expect to pay for conveyancing in Boston?
Almost all Boston conveyancing practices will charge a fixed fee. If extra work arise during the conveyancing your solicitor should disclose to you in writing of such supplemental charges for any work immediately it becomes obvious. Some work on a no move no fee principle, others will charge a fraction of the set costs, depending on the point at which the conveyancing does not go ahead.
It may be helpful for you to ask various conveyancers to supply you a quotation.
