Me and my husband are acquiring a maisonette in Banwell. My property lawyer has never been on on the bank conveyancing panel. Am I still permitted to continue with my Banwell conveyancing solicitor even though they are not on the lender approved list?
One must use a solicitor to deal with the formalities if you take out a loan to purchase your home. The conveyancer will carry out all the necessary legal checks on the property, ensuring that you will be registered as proprietor and ensure that all the required mortgage documentation is in place. You may select a Banwell property lawyer of your choice. Nevertheless, where the solicitor appointed is not on the mortgage company solicitor panel supplemental fees will be levied as separate legal representation will be required by them. Lender panel applications can be submitted, so provided your lawyer has not historically sought membership they should take the chance to apply.

If the lease is recorded at the land registry - and almost all are in Banwell - then the leasehold title will always include the basic details of the lease, namely the date; the term; and the original parties. From a conveyancing perspective such details then enable any prospective buyer and lender to confirm that any lease they are looking at is the one relevant to that title. For any other purpose, such as confirming how long the term was granted for and calculating what is left, then the register should be sufficient on it's own.

My husband and I intend to purchase our 1st property in Banwell. Conveyancing solicitor already selected. The broker advised that a survey is not necessary as the house is only 17 years old.
At the very least you should order a Home Buyer's Report. Given the premises is more than ten years old the property will be without a warranty, so you would be well advised not to take a risk. Where a property of this age shows no signs of defects a Home Buyer's report could suffice. They will highlight any obvious issues and recommend additional investigation if appropriate. If there are any indications of material issues obtain a full Building Survey from the beginning.
