My financial adviser requires my Castleton lawyer’ panel member for the Nationwide conveyancing panel. What is the best way to discover this. I have tried my local Castleton branch but they cant find it on their system.
The sensible thing to do is ask for this information from your Castleton solicitor . They keep a central record lender panel numbers.
We are expecting a mortgage offer soon. The bank mentioned the mortgage came with free conveyancing. Is the implication that I have to appoint their panel solicitor as I would prefer to instruct a Castleton based conveyancing firm?
You should check but the chances are that appoint one of their panel solicitors should you take up the "fee-free" deal. Contact the lender and ask if they offer you a monetary alternative. It is not unheard for a lender to give a £250 cashback as an alternative in which case that money can go towards your preferred conveyancing solicitor in Castleton.

Over the last few months I have been searching for a ground for flat up to £195,000 and identified one round the corner in Castleton I like with amenity areas and transport links nearby, the downside is that it only has 61 years unexpired on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Castleton suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake buying a short lease?
If you need a mortgage the remaining unexpired lease term may be a potential deal breaker. Discount the price by the anticipated lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the current owner has owned the property for at least 2 years you can request that they start the process of the extension and then assign it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the current lease term and have £0 ground rent by law. You should consult your conveyancing lawyer regarding this.

Should the firm not be on the lender panel we can certainly arrange a specialist conveyancing solicitor in Castleton on the approved list for your lender.
