My property lawyer in North Ferriby has never been on on the Halifax Solicitor Panel. Is it possible for me to continue with my family solicitor notwithstanding that they are excluded from the Halifax approved list?
Your options are as follows:
- Complete the purchase with your preferred North Ferriby lawyers but Halifax will need to retain a lawyer on their panel. This will inevitably rack up the overall legal fees and result in delays.
- Get a new lawyer to act in the purchase, remembering to check they are Halifax approved.
- Try to convince your Halifax solicitor to attempt to join the Halifax panel

I recently had an offer agreed on an apartment in North Ferriby. My mortgage broker recommended their conveyancers. I paid an advanced payment of £175. A couple of days later, the conveyancing practitioner contacted me sheepishly admitting that they were not on the Barclays conveyancing panel. Am I right in thinking that I should be due a refund?
You should be able to recover this from the law firm if they were not on the Barclays panel. They should have asked at the outset which lender you were obtaining a mortgage with. An important lesson to readers of this site is to check that the lawyers are on the appropriate lender panel.

Over the last few months I have been searching for a leasehold apartment up to £245,000 and identified one near me in North Ferriby I like with amenity areas and station in the vicinity, the downside is that it's only got 49 remaining years left on the lease. There is not much else in North Ferriby in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake buying a short lease?
Should you need a home loan the remaining unexpired lease term will likely be an issue. Discount the price by the anticipated lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the existing proprietor has owned the property for at least twenty four months you may ask them to start the process of the extension and pass it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the current lease term and have £0 ground rent by law. You should consult your conveyancing lawyer concerning this matter.
