My fiance and I are buying a purpose built flat in Meliden with a loan from Virgin Money.We use our Meliden conveyancing practitioner but Virgin Money advised that her practice is not on their approved list of firms. we are left little option but to use a Virgin Money panel lawyer or keep our preferred solicitor and fork out for one of their panel ones to represent them. This seems very unfair; is there anything we can do?
Unfortunately,no. The loan offered to you contains terms and conditions, a common one being that conveyancers needs to be on the Virgin Money approved list. Until recently, most mortgage companies had large numbers of solicitors on their panels: a borrower could find 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 Virgin Money

I am a negotiator for a reputable estate agent office in Meliden where we have witnessed a number of flat sales derailed due to short leases. I have been given conflicting advice from local Meliden conveyancing solicitors. Could you clarify whether the vendor of a flat can instigate the lease extension process 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 start the lease extension process and assign the benefit of the notice to the purchaser. This means that the buyer need not have to sit tight for 2 years for a lease extension. Both sets of lawyers will agree to form of assignment. The assignment has to be done before, or simultaneously with completion of the disposal of the property.
Alternatively, it may be possible to agree the lease extension with the freeholder 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 purchaser.
