We are buying a 1 bedroom apartment in Llanfechain with a homeloan from Clydesdale.We use our Llanfechain conveyancing practitioner but Clydesdale says her practice is not listed on their approved list of member firms. It seems we are left with little choice but to instruct a Clydesdale panel firm or keep our preferred solicitor and pay for a Clydesdale panel lawyer to represent them. We feel as though this is unjust; is there anything we can do?
Unfortunately,no. The loan issued to you is subject to its terms and conditions, one of which will be that lawyers will be on the Clydesdale approved list. in the past, most banks had large numbers of solicitors 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 lawyer to apply to be on the conveyancing panel for Clydesdale

I work for a long established estate agent office in Llanfechain where we see a few flat sales derailed due to short leases. I have received contradictory information from local Llanfechain conveyancing solicitors. Please can you clarify whether the owner of a flat can instigate the lease extension formalities for the buyer?
Provided that the seller has owned the lease for at least 2 years it is possible, to serve a Section 42 notice to commence the lease extension process and assign the benefit of the notice to the purchaser. The benefit of this is that the buyer can avoid having to sit tight for 2 years to extend their lease. Both sets of lawyers will agree to form of assignment. The assignment has to be done prior to, or simultaneously with completion of the disposal of the property.
Alternatively, it may be possible to extend the lease informally by agreement with the landlord either before or after the sale. If you are informally negotiating there are no rules and so you cannot insist on the landlord agreeing to grant an extension or transferring the benefit of an agreement to the buyer.

Anti-terror and anti-money-laundering rules require Llanfechain conveyancing solicitors and licensed conveyancers to verify the identity of the person or body they are dealing with before they can accept their conveyancing business. The Terms and Conditions that you need to sign will no doubt confirm this. Your lawyer is right that the lender also require certain documents to be viewed.

Your lawyer also has obligations to obtain certain documents in accordance with the bank's UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook requirements
