I can't travel far from Caerwys. Is there a reason why all Caerwys solicitors aren't included on all bank panels?

Pre- 2008 most mortgage companies had an approach to risk which is different from today. The FSA in 2010 carried out a thematic review into fraud which in summary warned lenders: know the conveyancers on your panel. Consequently, banks have since looked to extract more data from law firms concerning their operations and the staff who work for them and set certain criteria such as completing a minimum number of transactions. Thousands of law practices have been removed from lender panels even though they had 100% healthy track record, no complaints and zero claims and didn't just 'dabble' in conveyancing. Such firms were never going to meet the criteria of volume of transactions the mortgage companies set.

Secondly in all probability the property will be recorded at the land registry and you will be able to prove you own the property by your conveyancing lawyers procuring up to date copy of the land registers. Most conveyancing in Caerwys involves registered property but in the rare situation where your property is unregistered it is more tricky but is resolvable.

The 1954 Act gives a safeguard to commercial tenants, giving them the a statutory right to make a request to court for a renewal lease and remain in occupation at the end of an expired lease.

Having checked my lease I have discovered that there are only Fifty years remaining on my flat in Caerwys. I now want to extend my lease but my freeholder is absent. What options are available to me?

On the basis that you meet the appropriate requirements, under the Leasehold Reform, Housing and Urban Development Act 1993 you can apply to the County Court for an order to dispense with the service of the initial notice. This will enable the lease to be lengthened by the magistrate. You will be obliged to demonstrate that you or your lawyers have used your best endeavours to locate the landlord. On the whole a specialist may be useful to carry out a search and to produce a report to be accepted by the court as evidence that the freeholder is indeed missing. It is wise to seek advice from a solicitor in relation to devolving into the landlord’s absence and the vesting order request to the County Court overseeing Caerwys.

We are in the middle of buying a house in Caerwys. Conveyancing lawyer has phoned to say the property is "Leasehold". Will this likely make a difference on our Halifax valuation?

Caerwys conveyancing does not usually involve leasehold houses. The main consideration here is the length of lease and the ground rent. If there are hundred of years years remaining with a peppercorn rent, it's essentially freehold, so it’s unlikely to affect the value too much.

On the flip side, if it's, say, Sixty years it is bound to have a material effect on the value, and most likely wouldn't be acceptable to the bank. The remaining lease term and ground rent will be stated in the lease provided to your lawyer.
