My husband and I are hoping to buy a newly converted flat in St Annes with a loan from Norwich and Peterborough Building Society.We would like to retain our St Annes conveyancing solicitor but Norwich and Peterborough Building Society informed us he's not listed on their approved list of firms. we are left little option but to use a Norwich and Peterborough Building Society panel firm or retain our high street solicitor and pay for one of their panel ones to act for them. This seems very unfair; is there anything we can do?

No, not really. The home loan issued to you contains terms and conditions, one of which will be that solicitors needs to be on the Norwich and Peterborough Building Society solicitor panel. 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. Another option that might be available is for your lawyer to apply to be on the conveyancing panel for Norwich and Peterborough Building Society

I am close to exchanging contracts on the sale of our house in St Annes and the buyers lawyers are claiming that there is a possibility that the property was built land that was not decontaminated. A high street St Annes conveyancer would know this is not the case. It does beg the question why the buyers used a nationwide conveyancing practice as opposed to a conveyancing solicitor in St Annes. Having lived in St Annes for three years we know that this is a non issue. Should we contact our local Authority to get confirmation that there is no issue.

It would appear that you have a conveyancing lawyer already. Are they able to advise? You need to enquire of 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 illness)

Over the last few months I have been searching for a ground for flat up to £305k and identified one near me in St Annes I like with open areas and railway links in the vicinity, the downside is that it's only got 51 years unexpired on the lease. There is not much else in St Annes for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake acquiring a lease with such few years left?

If you need a home loan the remaining unexpired lease term will likely be an issue. Reduce the offer by the amount the lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the existing proprietor has owned the property for at least twenty four months you may ask them to commence the lease extension formalities and then assign it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the existing lease with a zero ground rent applied. You should consult your conveyancing lawyer regarding this.

I need to instruct a conveyancing solicitor for sale conveyancing in St Annes. I happened to chance upon a site which looks to be the ideal answer If there is a chance to get all the legals done via phone that would be preferable. Should I be wary? What should out be looking out for?
