We are purchasing a 1 bedroom flat in Lansbury with a mortgage. We have a Lansbury lawyer, but the bank advise he's not on their "panel". It appears that we have no option but to use one of the mortgage company panel solicitors or retain our Lansbury property lawyer as well as pay for one of their panel ones to represent them. We regard this is inequitable; can we not require that the bank use our Lansbury conveyancing practitioner ?
Unfortunately,no. 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. Another option that might be available is for your Lansbury conveyancing lawyer to apply to be on the conveyancing panel.

I have todaydiscovered that Wolstenholmes have closed. They carried out my conveyancing in Lansbury for a purchase of a freehold house 10 months ago. How can I check that the property is registered correctly in the name of the previous owner?

I have been on the look out for a flat up to £245,000 and found one near me in Lansbury I like with open areas and transport links in the vicinity, the downside is that it's only got 51 years on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Lansbury suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake buying a short lease?
Should you require a mortgage that many years will be a potential deal breaker. Reduce the offer by the anticipated lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the existing owner has owned the premises for at least twenty four months you may request that they start the process of the extension and pass it to you. You can add 90 years to the existing lease and have £0 ground rent by law. You should consult your conveyancing solicitor concerning this.

I have been informed by numerous family members to expect up to two months for Lansbury conveyancing to complete.This was 3 ago. The draft contract was only received to my lawyer last week so does the clock start running now?
Don't bank on counting down a two month period. Answering exactly how how many weeks Lansbury conveyancing will take is virtually impossible. Without fail every conveyance has it’s own unique set of complexities. Accordingly your conveyancer should be unwilling to predict the a precise timeframe to conclude your conveyancing in Lansbury.
