We have to appoint a Birmingham Midshires panel firm or keep our high street solicitor and pay for a Birmingham Midshires panel lawyer to act for them. We feel as though this is unjust; Can we not simply insist that Birmingham Midshires use our lawyer?

No, not really. The loan offered to you contains various provisions, a common one being that lawyers needs to be on the Birmingham Midshires approved list. in the past, most lenders had large numbers of solicitors on their panels: a borrower could choose one for themselves, as long as it was on the lender's panel. The lender would then simply instruct the borrower's lawyers to act for the lender, too. You can use your lender's panel lawyers or you could borrow from another lender which does not restrict your choice. A further alternative is for your lawyer to apply to be on the conveyancing panel for Birmingham Midshires

Over the last few months I have been searching for a flat up to £305k and found one near me in Sneyd Park I like with a park and station in the vicinity, the downside is that it only has 61 years unexpired on the lease. There is not much else in Sneyd Park for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake purchasing a short lease?

Should you need a home loan the remaining unexpired lease term will be problematic. Discount the price by the amount the lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the existing owner has owned the property for at least 2 years you could request that they start the process of the extension and pass it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the current lease with a zero ground rent applied. You should consult your conveyancing lawyer concerning this matter.
