We'd like to build a roof garden on a flat roof outside our bedroom window, which we would access by changing the windows into doors. What do we need to do legally to ensure this passes?

Our new neighbours keep leaving their dirty bikes in the entrance hall of our building. How can we tell them to stop without it causing a problem between us?

I've owned my flat from new and want to make some small structural changes. Does the freeholder need to sign off on these changes and why do I have to pay for this?

Our solicitor has discovered that the house we're buying has no building completion certificate for the third bedroom, which is in the attic, and our lenders won't help us out. How should we proceed?

When buying a home, make sure you know what to expect from the seller during the buying process

We're buying a leasehold flat and need a certificate of compliance. What is this and why do we have to meet the cost of it?

My friend needs a copy of her lease for a property she is selling. How can she get a copy of it?

Get the rules in place and the legals sorted before you jointly buy a home.

I've inherited my mother's house but have already exchanged contracts on a flat I was due to purchase. How do I now get out of buying it?

We have a right of way that goes through our neighbour's garden to access our own, but our neighbour doesn't like it. If we sell our flat do we have to disclose our issues with next door?
