I have given 8 weeks notice to my existing landlord and have to be out of my let out apartment in Sydenham Hill by the end of next month. Conveyancing on my purchase is underway. How realistic is it to complete in 5 weeks as I wish to avoid having to find short term accommodation?

There is no definitive answer here. Have Nationwide done the survey? Have you informed Nationwide as to your lawyers' details and checked that your lawyers are on the Nationwide conveyancing panel? It is not unusual for a mortgage offer to take a month to come through.

I am expecting a OIP from Principality this week so we know how much we could potentially offer as otherwise we are dependent on web based calculators (which aren't taking into account credit checks etc). Do Principality recommend any Sydenham Hill solicitors on the Principality conveyancing panel, or is it better to find our own lawyer?

You will need to appoint Sydenham Hill solicitors independently although you'll need to choose one on the Principality conveyancing panel. The solicitor represents both you and Principality through the process.

I had an offer accepted on a property in Sydenham Hill on 10/1/2025, valuation was booked 2 days after, received a clean bill of health. Property lawyer appointed, so the only thing outstanding was my mortgage offer. Having made daily calls to Nottingham and chasing them on my offer, I have now been told that my offer will not be issued unless the lawyer is on the Nottingham conveyancing panel. Are Nottingham entitled to hold back the Mortgage pending the lawyer being on the approved list?

A lender would not issue a mortgage until they have details of a lawyer on their panel. It can take a few weeks for Nottingham to deal with your lawyer's application to be on the Nottingham conveyancing panel. There's no guarantee that your solicitor will be accepted.
