Me and my partner are about to complete buying a property in East Yorkshire but as a consequence of wreckage from a small fire at the property I have was able negotiate recompense from the seller in the sum of six thousand pounds in the form of a adjustment in the price. I had intended this to be addressed as part of the conveyancing process however Co-operative are not allowing this. Why were they informed?
The conveyancer that is on the Co-operative conveyancing panel is duty bound to inform Co-operative of any variations to the purchase price. If you were to refuse your conveyancer to report the price change to Co-operative then they would have to discontinue acting for you. In addition, Co-operative and you would have to appoint a new conveyancing practitioner for your conveyancing in East Yorkshire.

Estate agents have just been given the go-ahead to market my basement apartment in East Yorkshire. Conveyancing has not commenced, but I have just received a yearly service charge invoice – what should I do?
The sensible thing to do is pay the maintenance contribution as usual as all ground rent and service charges will be apportioned on completion, so you should recover the relevant percentage by the buyer for the period running from after the completion date to the subsequent invoice date. Most managing agents will not acknowledge the buyer until the service charges have been paid and are up to date, so it is important for both buyer and seller for the seller to show that they are up to date. Having a clear account will assist your cause and will leave you no worse off financially.
I acquired a 2 bed flat in East Yorkshire, conveyancing was carried out half a dozen years ago. Can you please calculate a probable premium for a statutory lease extension?

Do not use this information in tribunal or court proceedings. There may be other concerns that need to be considered and clearly you should be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. Neither should you move forward based on this information before getting professional advice.
