we are a couple who wish to acquire a newbuild apartment in Aberdare with a residential mortgage from Barclays Direct.We use our Aberdare conveyancing lawyer but Barclays Direct informed us her practice is not listed on their "panel". It seems we have little choice but to instruct a Barclays Direct panel lawyer or keep our local solicitor and fork out for a Barclays Direct panel lawyer to represent them. This seems very unfair; Can we not simply insist that Barclays Direct use our lawyer?

Unfortunately,no. The home loan issued to you is subject to its various provisions, one of which will be that conveyancers must be on the Barclays Direct approved list. in the past, most banks had large numbers of law firms on their panels: a borrower could find one for themselves, as long as it was on the lender's panel. The lender would then simply instruct the borrower's lawyers to act for the lender, too. You can use your lender's panel lawyers or you could borrow from another lender which does not restrict your choice. A further alternative is for your lawyer to apply to be on the conveyancing panel for Barclays Direct

    If there are lifts in the building, please confirm that the owners of flats on the ground and basement floors will not be required to contribute towards the cost of maintenance and renewal. Has the Lease plan been approved by the Land Registry and if not when will they be lodged for this purpose? Where service of notices and proceedings can be at the property demised please confirm that this can be amended to include simultaneous services at the Lessees’ solicitors’ offices where the Lessee from time to time is not resident in the UK - such solicitors may be varied by notice in writing to the Landlord from time to time but otherwise will be as previously specified.

My wife and I purchased a leasehold flat in Aberdare. Conveyancing and Santander mortgage organised. I have received a letter from someone saying they have taken over the reversionary interest in the property. Attached was a demand for arrears of ground rent dating back to 1994. The conveyancing solicitor in Aberdare who acted for me is not around. What should I do?

The first thing you should do is contact HMLR to make sure that the individual claiming to own the freehold is in fact the new freeholder. You do not need to instruct a Aberdare conveyancing firm to do this as it can be done on-line for a few pound. You should note that in any event, even if this is the rightful landlord, under the Limitation Act 1980 no more than 6 years of rent can be collected.

    What is the name of the managing agents? Is there a share of the freehold? You should be aware if it is less than eighty years it will have adverse implications on the salability of the flat. Check with your lender that they are content with residual term of the lease. A short lease means that you will almost definitely have to extend the lease sooner rather than later and you need to have some idea of how much this would cost. For most Aberdarelease extensions you would need to own the property for 24 months in order to be entitled to carry out a lease extension.
