Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Haggerston

My wife and I are buying a 1 bedroom flat in Haggerston with a mortgage. We have a Haggerston lawyer, however the mortgage company says she’s not on their "panel". We have to appoint one of the mortgage company panel conveyancing practices or continue with our Haggerston conveyancing practitioner and pay for one of their panel ones to represent them. This seems very unfair; is there anything we can do?

Unfortunately,no. Your mortgage offer is subject to its terms and conditions, one of which will be that lawyers will on the lender’s conveyancing panel. Until recently, most lenders had large numbers of law firms on their panels: a borrower could choose one for themselves, as long as it was on the lender's panel. The lender would then simply instruct the borrower's lawyers to act for the lender, too. You can use your lender's panel lawyers or you could borrow from another lender which does not restrict your choice. A further alternative is for your Haggerston conveyancing solicitor to apply to be on the conveyancing panel.

I am looking for a ground for flat up to £245,000 and found one round the corner in Haggerston I like with open areas and railway links in the vicinity, the downside is that it only has 51 remaining years left on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Haggerston in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake purchasing a lease with such few years left?

If you need a home loan that many years will likely be an issue. Discount the offer by the expected lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the current owner has owned the property for at least twenty four months you may request that they commence the lease extension formalities and then assign it to you. You can add 90 years to the existing lease term and have £0 ground rent by law. You should speak to your conveyancing solicitor about this matter.
