I was advised today by my mortgage adviser that my Llanfyrnach the law firm I have appointed is not on the mortgage company Solicitor panel. What can I do to check?

About to purchase house in Llanfyrnach. I have received an online quote from a licenced conveyancer, which states: "There will be no charge for dealing with the Lender if you are obtaining a mortgage". I take this to mean that there will be no additional fee if the solicitor is on the Kent Reliance conveyancing panel. I wanted to make sure it means there will be no additional fees for dealing with the mortgage.
They are simply saying that the cost for acting for the lender is included in the fee being quoted. It is worth you checking that the Llanfyrnach lawyer is on the Kent Reliance conveyancing panel.

Will the freehold then be transferred for a nominal consideration (not exceeding £100) to the Management Company?

Over the last few months I have been searching for a flat up to £245,000 and identified one near me in Llanfyrnach I like with a park and railway links in the vicinity, the downside is that it's only got 51 years unexpired on the lease. There is not much else in Llanfyrnach suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake buying a lease with such few years left?
If you require a home loan the remaining unexpired lease term may 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 2 years you can 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 lawyer regarding this.
In what way can the Landlord & Tenant Act 1954 affect my business offices in Llanfyrnach and how can your lawyers assist?

There are limited grounds where a landlord can refuse a lease renewal and the rules are complex. We are happy to direct you to commercial conveyancing firms who use the act to your advantage and help with commercial conveyancing in Llanfyrnach
