At what point can the exchange of contracts occur in purchase conveyancing in Polperro and do I need to be at the solicitors branch?
If you are in close proximity to one of the conveyancing solicitors in Polperro you are welcome to attend to sign documents. That being said, the lender approved solicitors we work with provide a nationwide conveyancing service and provide just as diligent and professional a job for you when communicating with you digitally. The executing of the sale agreement is not the critical part. Signing on the dotted line is just a prerequisite for the firm to officially exchange when the time is right, which will usually be very shortly after signing. The exchange process is nowadays normally dealt with by telephone and can be very rapid, although where an extended "chain" is involved, since the process requires the relevant party's solicitor (not necessarily a conveyancing solicitor in Polperro)to be in the office available at the end of the phone to exchange contracts.
We are selling our home in Polperro. Will the lawyer have to be on the Leeds Building Society conveyancing panel in order to deal with paying off my mortgage?
Ordinarily, even if your lawyer is not on the Leeds Building Society conveyancing panel they can still act for you on your sale. It might be that the lender will not release the original deeds (if applicable and increasingly irrelevant) until after the mortgage is paid off. You should speak to your lawyer directly before you start the process though to ensure that there is no problem as lenders are changing their specifications fairly frequently currently.
I am looking for a flat up to £245,000 and identified one near me in Polperro I like with amenity areas and transport links in the vicinity, however it's only got 49 remaining years left on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Polperro suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake purchasing a short lease?
Should you require a home loan the remaining unexpired lease term may be a potential deal breaker. Discount the price by the amount the lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the current owner has owned the premises for a minimum of twenty four months you can ask them to start the process of the extension and then assign it to you. You can add 90 years to the current lease and have £0 ground rent by law. You should speak to your conveyancing solicitor concerning this.

Developers have suggested I use a property lawyer and I've received a quote from them. It's nearly £250 cheaper than my family Polperro lawyer. Should I use them?
Builders frequently have panels of solicitors who expedite matters and who know the builder's contract and lawyer. Plenty of developers offer an inducement to choose a preferred property lawyer for this reason, any increased fees can be avoided and a builder will not suggest a conveyancing warehouse and run the risk of having the conveyancing delayed when they demand an exchange within a tight deadline. The argument for not agreeing to use the recommended solicitor is that they may be hesitant to 'push' your interests at the risk of alienating the housebuilder. Where you have concerns that this may be the case you should remain with your local Polperro conveyancer.
