I am acquiring a maisonette in Gosforth. My Solicitor has never been on on the bank solicitor list. Is it possible for me to use my Gosforth conveyancing solicitor even though they are excluded from the mortgage company panel?
One will need to have a property lawyer to complete the legal work required if you need a loan to purchase your home. They will conduct all the relevant legal checks on the property, ensuring that you’re properly registered as the owner and ensure that all the necessary mortgage documentation is dealt with. One can select a Gosforth conveyancer of your choosing. However, where the conveyancer selected is not a member of the mortgage company approved list supplemental fees will arise as separate legal representation will be need by the lender. Conveyancing panel applications can be submitted, so where your conveyancer has not historically sought membership they should take the opportunity to apply.
I am considering remortgaging my home in Gosforth, does my lawyer need to be on the Nottingham Solicitor panel?
In theory, you could use a solicitor that is not on the Nottingham conveyancing panel, but Nottingham would require one of their panel solicitors to be instructed to act in their interests, and you'd have to pay for this - so most people instruct a panel solicitor. It's also easier, as otherwise you'd have to deal with two solicitors for the same conveyancing matter.

Having checked my lease I have discovered that there are only Sixty One years remaining on my flat in Gosforth. I am keen to get lease extension but my landlord is missing. What are my options?
If you meet the appropriate requirements, under the Leasehold Reform, Housing and Urban Development Act 1993 you can submit an application to the County Court for an order to dispense with the service of the initial notice. This will mean that your lease can be lengthened by the Court. You will be obliged to prove that you or your lawyers have done all that could be expected to find the landlord. On the whole an enquiry agent should be useful to try and locate and to produce an expert document which can be accepted by the court as proof that the freeholder can not be located. It is advisable to get professional help from a solicitor both on investigating the landlord’s absence and the vesting order request to the County Court covering Gosforth.

My mum and dad are experiencing difficulties in finding their Gosforth property on the HMLR site. They recall that back in the 70’s when they purchased the property there were complications concerning the post code not being identified on some systems.
The vast majority of premises in Gosforth should show up. Have you tried a search to simply the postcode. Ordinarily it should reveal all the residences inside the postcode. Where recorded it will be there with a title number. Where they bought back in the 70’s it's conceivable it may be unrecorded. The address could still be revealed but with the title number shown 'na'. In this scenario you will need to locate the original title documentation which might be with your parent’s bank.
