We were just about to sign contracts for a freehold house in Edmonton. We have hit a problem. Our mortgage offer with Norwich and Peterborough Building Society runs out on 11/1/2027 but the sellers are suggesting a completion date of 13/1/2027. Is it possible to extend the mortgage expiry date?
The best person to deal with your concern is your conveyancer who should assess whether he or she is corresponding with the mortgage broker, owner’s solicitors, selling agents or possibly all three given what has happend in your transaction to date.

How can we know in advance if a Edmonton conveyancing solicitor on the Santander panel is any good?
When it comes to conveyancing in Edmonton getting recommendations is a sensible start. Before you go ahead, check if they offer a no sale no fee offer. Also, you often get what you pay for - a firm which quotes more, will often provide a better service than one advertising the lowest fees. We would always advocate that you speak with the solicitor conducting your transaction.
I am selling my apartment. I had a double glazing fitted in June 2007, but did not receive a FENSA certificate or Building Regulation Certificate. My purchaser’s lender, Clydesdale are being difficult. The Edmonton solicitor who is on the Clydesdale conveyancing panel is recommending indemnity insurance as a solution but Clydesdale are requiring a building regulation certificate. Why do Clydesdale have a conveyancing panel if they don't accept advice from them?
It is probably the case that Clydesdale have referred the matter to their valuer. The reason why Clydesdale may not want to accept indemnity insurance is because it does not give them any reassurance that the double glazing was correctly and safely installed. The indemnity insurance merely protects against enforcement action which is very unlikely anyway.
I have instructed a Edmonton solicitor having made sure that they are on the Leeds Building Society conveyancing panel. Does my lawyer arrange the survey of the property?
Leeds Building Society will need an independent valuation of the property. Your lawyer will not arrange this. Usually Leeds Building Society will appoint their own surveyor to do this, and you will have to pay for it. Remember that this is a valuation for mortgage purposes and not a survey. Your property lawyer will not organise the survey but they may be able to put you in touch with a local one that they recommend. RICS offers a find a surveyor service (just google it) where you can search for a qualified surveyor by your Edmonton postcode. As you are getting a mortgage with Leeds Building Society, you could contact them to see if they have a list of approved surveyors in Edmonton.

If.Given you are not taking a mortgage you have the choice not to have searches conducted although no law firm would advise that you don't. With plenty of history conveyancing in Edmonton the following are instances of issues that can be revealed and therefore affect market value: Refused Planning Applications, Overdue Charges, Outstanding Grants, Unadopted Roads,...
