Can you help? My Bridlington conveyancer is advising me that he has toorder Bridlington conveyancing searches resulting from the fact thatthe firm are on the Nat Westapproved lawyer panel. Is my lawyer right?

You have limited options available to you. As you are obtaining a mortgage with a lender your conveyancer has to comply with their conditions as set out in their version of the CML Conveyancing Handbook.

It is a dozen years since I purchased my house in Bridlington. Conveyancing solicitors have just been appointed on the sale but I am unable to find the title deeds. Will this cause complications?

You need not be too concerned. Firstly there is a chance that the deeds will be with your mortgage company or they may be in the possession of the lawyers who oversaw the purchase. Secondly the likelihood is that the property will be recorded at the land registry and you will be able to prove you own the property by your conveyancing solicitors procuring current official copies of the land registers. Almost all conveyancing in Bridlington involves registered property but in the unlikely event that your home is unregistered it is more of a problem but is not insurmountable.

I am about to put an offer on a leasehold apartment in Bridlington. The estate agents tell me that it is the norm for flats in Bridlington to have less than 75 years left on the lease. I am obtaining a loan with Bank of Ireland. Is this going to be a problem if the lease has 72 years remaining.

Most leasehold conveyancing experts should be able to deal with a lease extension. if you are obtaining a mortgage then your lender may insist that the lease be extended before competition. Bank of Ireland have specific requirements as set out in the UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook in relation to minimum unexpired lease terms. As of 6/6/2025 the requirements read as follows :

Yes, subject to a minimum lease term of 85 years. The unexpired lease term must be at least the mortgage term plus 45 years. See also 5.14.9

You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold residence.
