Unfortunately I am unable to travel far from Moor Row. Please clarify why all Moor Row lawyers are not on all bank panels?
Lenders normally impose restrictions on either the nature or the number of conveyancing firms on their panel. A common example of such restriction(s) being that the practice is required to have two or more partners. In addition to restricting the structure of firm, some lenders made a decision to restrict the number of conveyancers they permit to act for them. It is worth noting that banks have no liability for the quality of advice supplied by any Moor Row lawyer on their panel. Increases in mortgage fraud was the primary trigger for the reduction of conveyancing panels in the last decade even though there are contrary views concerning the extent of solicitor involvement in some of that fraud. Data published by HMLR reveal that thousands of law organisations only carry out one or two conveyances annually. Those advocating conveyancing panel cuts ask why law firms deserve any entitlement to be on a bank panel when clearly conveyancing is not their primary expertise?

I am looking at a two maisonettes in Moor Row which have in the region of forty five years unexpired on the lease term. Will this present a problem?
A lease is a legal document that entitles you to use the premises for a prescribed time frame. As the lease gets shorter the value of the lease decreases and it becomes more expensive to extend the lease. For this reason it is often a good idea to extend the lease term. It is often difficulties arise selling premises with a short lease as mortgage lenders may be reluctant to lend money on properties of this type. Lease extension can be a difficult process. We advise that you seek professional help from a solicitor and surveyor with experience in this field.

Please note that where the lease has less than 80 years it will impact the value of the property. It is worth checking with your bank that they are content with the length of the lease.
