We're in Penryn, First time buyers purchasing with a mortgage (lender is Aldermore , and our lawyer is on the Aldermore conveyancing panel). How long should the conveyancing process take?
The fact that your lawyer is on the Aldermore conveyancing panel is a help. It would almost certainly delay matters if they were not. However, no conveyancer should guarantee a timeframe for your conveyancing, due to third parties outside of your control such as delays caused by lenders,conveyancing search providers or by the other side’s solicitors. The time taken is often determined by the number of parties in a chain.
Over the last few months I have been searching for a leasehold apartment up to £235,500 and identified one round the corner in Penryn I like with open areas and station in the vicinity, the downside is that it only has 51 years unexpired on the lease. There is not much else in Penryn suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error purchasing a lease with such few years left?
If you require a home loan that many years will likely be problematic. Reduce the offer by the anticipated lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the existing owner has owned the premises for at least 2 years you may request that they start the process of the extension and then assign it to you. You can add 90 years to the existing lease and have £0 ground rent by law. You should speak to your conveyancing solicitor regarding this.

Builders have recommended to me a solicitor and I've sought a quote from them. They are almost £300 cheaper than my own Penryn property lawyer. Should I use them?
Housebuilders normally have panels of property lawyers who are quick and who know the seller’s contract and lawyer. Plenty of developers offer an incentive to use a preferred property lawyer for this reason, any increased fees can be avoided and a builder won't suggest a conveyancing warehouse and run the risk of having the conveyancing stall when they want exchange inside a month. A counter-argument for not opting for the recommended conveyancer is that they may prove reluctant to fight for your interests for fear of upsetting the housebuilder. Where you have concerns that this may be the situation you should remain with your high street Penryn lawyer.
