I am attracted to a couple of apartments in Fenny Stratford which have approximately fifty years left on the lease term. Should I regard a short lease as a deal breaker?

There are plenty of short leases in Fenny Stratford. The lease is a legal document that entitles you to use the property for a period of time. As the lease shortens the marketability of the lease decreases and it becomes more expensive to extend the lease. For this reason it is generally wise to extend the lease term. It is often difficulties arise selling premises with a short lease because mortgage lenders may be unwilling to lend money on such properties. Lease enfranchisement can be a protracted process. We advise that you seek professional assistance from a conveyancer and surveyor with experience in this area.

My partner and I have just had an offer accepted on a house and had meeting on Wednesday with HSBC for the mortgage. They warned me that when it comes to choosing a property lawyer that unless they are on their approved panel of lawyers then we will incur an extra charge of £200. This is is due to the fact that they will then have to instruct a conveyancer to act for them in addition to the one we appoint for ourselves and we are liable for their fees. I have requested HSBC to provide me with a list so I can request estimates only from their approved lawyers but was told they dont have such a list to hand over. What would be the best way of going about this?

Ask HSBC what their criteria for panel membership is for a solicitor.Then ask the lawyer of your choice whether they meet the criteria and have they acted on mortgages for HSBC before. If the answer to those is yes, then just clarify this with HSBC. Another option is to use our search tool and we should be able to identify a solicitor in Fenny Stratford on the approved list for HSBC.
