My fiance and I may need to rent out our Ombersley garden flat temporarily due to a career opportunity. We used a Ombersley conveyancing practice in 2002 but they have since shut and we did not think at the time seek any guidance as to whether the lease permits subletting. How do we find out?

Your lease governs relations between the landlord and you the leaseholder; specifically, it will say if subletting is not allowed, or permitted but only subject to certain conditions. The accepted inference is that if the lease contains no expres ban or restriction, subletting is allowed. The majority of leases in Ombersley do not contain an absolute prevention of subletting – such a provision would undoubtedly devalue the property. In most cases there is simply a requirement that the owner notifies the freeholder, possibly supplying a duplicate of the sublease.

Is anyone aware of any major works in the near future that could increase the maintenance charges? How long is the Lease?

Myself and my partner have just had an offer agreed on a apartment and had an appointment on Friday with Leeds Building Society for the mortgage. They warned me that when it comes to selecting a solicitor that unless they are on their approved panel of conveyancing practitioners then we will have to pay out a further fee of £200. This is because they will then have to instruct a conveyancer to act on their behalf in addition to the one we select for ourselves and we assume responsibility for their invoice. I have requested Leeds Building Society to furnish me with a list so I can seek quotes only from their approved solicitors but was told that I need to check with each individual solicitor to see if they are on the panel. What would be the best way of going about this?

You should ask Leeds Building Society what their criteria for panel membership is for a conveyancer.Thereafter ask the property lawyer of your choice whether they meet the criteria and have they acted on mortgages for Leeds Building Society in the past. If the answer to those is yes, then just double check with Leeds Building Society. Alternatively please use our search facility and we may be able to locate a solicitor in Ombersley on the approved list for Leeds Building Society.
