We went with a high street solicitor for my conveyancing in Lostwithiel today. Reviewing the Ts and Cs it is apparent thatI am liable for costs even where the transaction does not complete. Should I go with them or instruct an internet lawyer promoting no-sale-no-fee conveyancing in Lostwithiel?
Generally there is a compromise along the lines that if "No Sale No Fee" is advertised then the fee levels will generally be more expensive to counteract the transactions that abort. Do bear in mind that these promotions rarely cover expenses by way of example Lostwithiel conveyancing search expenses.
I have 71 years unexpired on my lease and require a lease extension for my apartment in Lostwithiel. Conveyancing solicitors on the Bank of Ireland panel can deal with such extensions right?

Bank of Ireland have specific requirements as set out in the UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook in relation to minimum unexpired lease terms. As of 23/7/2026 the requirements read as follows :
Are all Lostwithiel Conveyancing Quality Solicitors on the TSB conveyancing panel?
A selection of banks and building societies now use the accreditation scheme as the starting point for Panel membership such as HSBC and Santander.

Nevertheless,the CML have indicated that it is likely to become a pre-requisite for solicitors wishing to join their panels.
Completion of my purchase has taken place for my property in Lostwithiel. Conveyancing was a necessary evil but I would like to complain about the lender. How do I make a complaint?
Almost all lenders have complaints procedures. Your first port of call should be one of the lender’s branches or the Customer Care Department at head office. Ordinarily complaints to a lender are resolved very quickly. If you feel the matter is not resolved you can write to Financial Ombudsman Service, South Quay Plaza, 183 Marsh Wall, London E14 9SR with full details of your complaint.
It is not clear whether my mortgage offer obliges me to make sure the lease term for the flat is extended prior to the completion date. I have called my Lostwithiel bank branch on a couple of occasions and was advised it wasn't a problem and they would lend. My Lostwithiel conveyancing solicitor - who is on the bank conveyancing panel- called to say that they refuse to lend in accordance with their specific requirements. Who do I believe?
The solicitor must comply with the CML Handbook Part 2 conditions for your bank. Unless your lawyer obtains specific confirmation in writing that the mortgage company will go ahead, your lawyer has no choice but to refrain from exchanging contract and committing you to the purchase. We would suggest that you ask the bank to contact your lawyer in writing confirming that they will accept the number of years left on the lease.
Just had an offer accepted on a new build apartment in Lostwithiel. Conveyancing is a frightening process at the best of times but I have never purchased a new build flat before. Can you give me some examples of some of the questions asked in new build legal work.
