The Lloyds approved solicitor list is, like many other lenders, associated to the Council or Mortgage Lenders or Building Society Association, open to Licensed Conveyancers regulated by the CLC.

Here are examples of a few leasehold new build questions that you can expect your new-build leasehold conveyancing in Creigiau
-
If there are lifts in the building, please confirm that the owners of flats on the ground and basement floors will not be required to contribute towards the cost of maintenance and renewal. The Vendor must covenant to keep unsold units in good repair until long leases are granted therefore. Please supply a car parking plan.

I am looking for a leasehold apartment up to £235,500 and identified one close by in Creigiau I like with amenity areas and railway links nearby, the downside is that it's only got 52 remaining years left on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Creigiau in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake purchasing a short lease?
Should you need a mortgage the remaining unexpired lease term will likely be a potential deal breaker. Discount the offer by the anticipated lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the current owner has owned the property for at least twenty four months you may ask them to commence the lease extension formalities and pass it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the existing lease term with a zero ground rent applied. You should consult your conveyancing solicitor about this.
My partner and I have AIP from Barclays who have advised that they will loan up to £400k. At what point do we need to instruct a lawyer for conveyancing? Creigiau is where we are purchasing.
It would be wise to instruct a lawyer now so that the property lawyer can open the ledger so they can conduct the ID checks etc. Once you wish them to start work you will be asked for a deposit normally approximately £175. That would normally be after you have the mortgage offer and survey back, however if you want to expedite the process you can get going sooner albeit risking some expense.
