Me and my fiance are planning to purchase a 2 bedroom flat in Longford with a mortgage. We have a Longford conveyancer, however the mortgage company says she’s not on their "panel". We have to appoint one of the bank panel solicitors or continue with our Longford solicitor as well as pay for one of their panel lawyers to represent them. We consider that this is unjust; is there anything we can do?
No, not really. 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. Another option that might be available is for your Longford conveyancing solicitor to apply to be on the conveyancing panel.

I am looking for a leasehold apartment up to £235,500 and found one near me in Longford I like with a park and railway links in the vicinity, the downside is that it's only got 51 remaining years left on the lease. There is not much else in Longford in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error purchasing a short lease?
If you require a home loan the shortness of the lease will be problematic. Discount the offer by the anticipated lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the current owner has owned the premises for a minimum of twenty four months you may request that they start the process of the extension and then assign it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the existing lease and have £0 ground rent by law. You should speak to your conveyancing lawyer about this.
