It is not clear whether my mortgage offer requires a lease extension. I have called my Dereham building society branch on various occasions and was advised it wasn't a problem and they would lend. My Dereham conveyancing solicitor - who is on the mortgage company conveyancing panel- called to say that they will not lend based on their specific requirements. Who do I believe?
Provided that the lawyer is on the mortgage company approved list, they must adhere to the CML Handbook requirements for the lender. Unless your lawyer obtains specific confirmation in writing that the bank will go ahead, your lawyer has no choice but to refrain from exchanging contract and committing you to the purchase. We would suggest that you ask the bank to contact your lawyer in writing confirming that they will accept the number of years left on the lease.

I was advised by numerous estate agents in Dereham to select a conveyancer using your seach tool. What’s the financial upside for Estate Agents to promote your services rather than a competitor’s?
We don’t make any financial incentive for directing people our way. We found it would be just too difficult a fee because members of the public would think, ‘Why is the agent getting a kickback? Why am I not getting any benefit too?’ So we decided to step away from that.
