Me and my fiance are buying a 1 bedroom flat in Lampeter with a mortgage. We have a Lampeter lawyer, however the mortgage company advise he's not on their "panel". It appears that we have no option but to use one of the lender panel solicitors or continue with our Lampeter lawyer as well as pay for one of their panel lawyers to represent them. This seems very unfair; are we not able to insist that the mortgage company use our Lampeter conveyancer ?

No, not really. The mortgage offered to you is subject to its terms and conditions, one of which will be that lawyers will on the bank’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 Lampeter conveyancing lawyer to apply to be on the conveyancing panel.

Provided that you do not need a home loan, then all but one or two of the Lampeter conveyancing searches are non-obligatory. Your conveyancer will 'advise', perhaps strongly, that you should have searches carried out, but she has a professional duty to do this. One thing to bear in mind; if you are intend to dispose of the house one day, it could be of relevance to your future buyer what the searches reveal. Sometimes properties with no practical issues can still reveal detrimental search results. A good conveyancing solicitor in Lampeter will provide you some helpful guidance in this regard.

I have been on the look out for a leasehold apartment up to £245,000 and identified one close by in Lampeter I like with amenity areas and station nearby, however it's only got 52 years on the lease. There is not much else in Lampeter in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error buying a lease with such few years left?

If you require a home loan the remaining unexpired lease term will likely be a potential deal breaker. Reduce the offer by the anticipated lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the current proprietor has owned the property for a minimum of 2 years you may ask them to commence the lease extension formalities and pass it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the existing lease with a zero ground rent applied. You should speak to your conveyancing solicitor concerning this matter.

We refuse to make any referral fee for directing people in our direction. We thought it would be too underhand a fee because members of the public would think, ‘Why is the agent getting a kickback? Why aren’t I receiving any benefit too?’ So we decided to step away from that.

I am using a search engine for the words on line conveyancing in Lampeter it reveals numerous property lawyerslocally. How do I determine which is the suitable property lawyer for my move?
