Last month we had a mortgage agreed in principle with HSBC. Rothbury conveyancing lawyers have been selected. How long does it take for HSBC to send the offer to the conveyancing practitioner?

After much negotiation I have agreed a price on a house in Rothbury. My financial adviser recommended their conveyancers. I paid an upfront payment of £225. A few days later, the lawyer contacted me to say that they were not on the Lloyds 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 Lloyds 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.
Intending to buy a maisonette in Rothbury. I have received an online quote from a licenced conveyancer, which states: "There will be no charge for dealing with the Building Society if you are obtaining a mortgage". I take this to mean that there will be no additional fee if the solicitor is on the Nottingham conveyancing panel. I wanted to make sure it means there will be no additional fees for dealing with the mortgage.

Having lived in Rothbury for 4 years we know that this is a non issue. Is it a good idea to get in touch with our local Authority to get confirmation need.
It would appear that you have a conveyancing solicitor already. What do they say? You need to check with your lawyer before you do anything. It is very possible that once the local authority has been informed of a potential issue it cannot be insured against (a bit like being diagnosed with a serious illness and then taking out health insurance to cover that same ailment)
I am looking for a ground for flat up to £245,000 and found one near me in Rothbury I like with a park and station nearby, however it only has 61 remaining years left on the lease. There is not much else in Rothbury suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error purchasing a lease with such few years left?
Should you require a mortgage that many years will be an issue. Discount the price by the anticipated lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted.
