It has come to my attention via my IFA that my Borrowash property lawyer is not on the bank Conveyancing panel. What can I do to check?
The best course of action for you to take is to contact your Borrowash conveyancer. You lawyer should advise you what has happened. Where they are not on the panel they could put your in touch with solicitors on the conveyancing panel for your lender.
Are the Borrowash conveyancing solicitors identified as being on the RBS conveyancing panel, together with their details provided by RBS?
Borrowash conveyancing firms themselves provide us confirmation that they are on the RBS conveyancing panel as opposed to being supplied with a list from RBS directly.
I am considering applying for a Clydesdale mortgage for purchase of a new build (under development) in Borrowash with 60% loan to value. Is it compulsory to choose a solicitor on the conveyancing panel for Clydesdale ?
In theory, you could use a solicitor that is not on the Clydesdale conveyancing panel, but Clydesdale would require one of their panel solicitors to be instructed to act in their interests, and you'd have to pay for this - so most people instruct a panel solicitor. It's also easier, as otherwise you'd have to deal with two solicitors for the same conveyancing matter.
I am looking for a flat up to £235,500 and found one round the corner in Borrowash I like with a park and transport links nearby, however it's only got 49 years unexpired on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Borrowash for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake purchasing a lease with such few years left?
Should you require a home loan the remaining unexpired lease term will likely be problematic. Discount the price by the amount the lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the existing owner has owned the property for at least twenty four months you could request that they commence the lease extension formalities and pass it to you. You can add 90 years to the existing lease with a zero ground rent applied. You should speak to your conveyancing solicitor regarding this matter.
