After much negotiation I have agreed a price on an apartment in Oakleigh Park. My mortgage broker pressured me to appoint their lawyer. I paid an on account payment of £150. A couple of days later, the lawyer contacted me embarrassingly acknowledging that they were not on the Aldermore 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 Aldermore 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.

Despite weeks of looking the Title Certificate and documents to our home are lost. The solicitors who dealt with the conveyancing in Oakleigh Park 10 years ago have long since closed. What are my options?

As long as the title is registered the details of your proprietorship will be evidenced by the Land Registry under a Title Number. It is possible to carry out a search at the Land Registry, locate your house and order up to date copies of the Registered Entries for a small fee. If the title is Leasehold then the Land Registry will in most cases hold a file duplicate of the Registered Lease and again, a copy can be ordered for twenty pounds.

Over the last few months I have been searching for a ground for flat up to £195,000 and identified one close by in Oakleigh Park I like with amenity areas and railway links nearby, the downside is that it only has 52 remaining years left on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Oakleigh Park suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake purchasing a lease with such few years left?

If you require a mortgage the remaining unexpired lease term may be problematic. Discount the offer by the anticipated lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the current proprietor has owned the premises for a minimum of twenty four months you may request that they commence the lease extension formalities and then assign it to you. You can add 90 years to the existing lease term with a zero ground rent applied. You should speak to your conveyancing lawyer regarding this.
