Unfortunately I am unable to travel far from Cholsey. I would like to know the logic why all Cholsey property lawyers are not on all mortgage company panels?
Lenders point to the fact that solicitor-led fraud is thought to be responsible for millions of pounds of fraud annually.The removal of law firms off of lender panels started with the rise in mortgage fraud, which prompted a thematic review by the Financial Services Authority in 2011. Its conclusions included recommendations for mortgage companies to review their conveyancing panels, which triggered a major policy change in the sector. This resulted in mortgage companies culling less reputable firms off their books of approved conveyancers .
It is is a decade since I bought my property in Cholsey. Conveyancing lawyers have now been appointed on the sale but I am unable to track down the title documents. Is this a major issue?
Don’t worry too much. First there is a chance that the deeds will be with your lender or they may be in the possession of the lawyers who acted in your purchase. Secondly the likelihood is that the title will be recorded at the land registry and you will be able to prove you own the property by your conveyancing lawyers acquiring current official copies of the land registers. The vast majority of conveyancing in Cholsey involves registered property but in the unlikely event that your home is not registered it adds to the complexity but is not insurmountable.

I am looking for a ground for flat up to £195,000 and identified one close by in Cholsey I like with open areas and station nearby, however it only has 51 years unexpired on the lease. There is not much else in Cholsey in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error purchasing a short lease?
Should you need a mortgage the remaining unexpired lease term will likely be an issue. 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 can ask them to commence the lease extension formalities and then assign it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the current lease term with a zero ground rent applied. You should speak to your conveyancing solicitor concerning this matter.
