My financial adviser requires my Stepney solicitor’s panel reference for the Nationwide conveyancing panel. How do I find this out. I have contacted my local Stepney branch but they have not responded to me.

I am looking for a leasehold apartment up to £235,500 and identified one near me in Stepney I like with amenity areas and transport links in the vicinity, the downside is that it's only got 51 remaining years left on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Stepney for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error buying a short lease?
Should you require a home loan the shortness of the lease may be a potential deal breaker. Discount the offer by the expected lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the current proprietor has owned the premises for a minimum of twenty four months you can ask them to commence the lease extension formalities and pass it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the existing lease with a zero ground rent applied. You should speak to your conveyancing solicitor about this matter.

Make use of our search tool on this page to be sure that the lawyers are on the appropriate lender panels. On the basis that they are the solicitor should be able to tie up the two deals but you should have a chat with you solicitor and communicate your expectations and requirements.
Developers have recommended to me a solicitor and I've sought an estimate from them. They are nearly two hundred pounds less expensive than my own Stepney conveyancer. Should I use them?
Developers normally have lists of lawyers who are quick and who know the seller’s contract and conveyancer. Plenty of developers offer an inducement to use their approved lawyer for this reason, any increased fees can be avoided and a developer will not recommend a conveyancing factory and run the risk of having the transaction stall when they demand an exchange within a tight time frame. A counter-argument for not opting for the recommended conveyancer is that they may be reluctant to 'push' your interests for fear of upsetting the developer. If you worry that this may be the case you should keep with your high street Stepney lawyer.
