If you had a top tip for choosing a conveyancing solicitor in Enderby what would it be?
We would encourage you not to base your choice on the lowest Enderby conveyancing fees. You really do get what you pay for when it comes to conveyancing solicitors.

It is unclear whether my bank requires a lease extension. I have called into my local Enderby bank branch on numerous occasions and was told it does not impact the mortgage offer and they will lend. My Enderby conveyancing solicitor - who is on the bank conveyancing panel- telephoned to say that they will not lend based on their UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook minimum lease term requirements. I have no idea who is right.
The solicitor must comply with the CML Handbook Part 2 provisions for your bank. Unless your lawyer obtains specific confirmation in writing that the mortgage company 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 lender to contact your lawyer in writing confirming that they will accept the number of years remaining.

It is the figure included in the Transfer (the legal deed which transfers the premises from one person to the other) and referred to as the 'consideration' or purchase price. You can report an error in the price paid figure using the LR online form. In most cases errors result from typos so at first glance the figure. Do report it so they can double check and advise.
