I can't travel far from Tenbury Wells. What is the rationale as to why all Tenbury Wells solicitors aren't automatically on all mortgage company panels?
Even though it may seem unfair for banks to restrict who can act for them, from the public’s or lawyer’s perspective, the flip side is that mortgage companies are becoming ever more anxious and feel it essential to defend themselves against illegal activities. As a consequence of this concern banks have consolidated their panel of approved conveyancing lawyers to a manageable size.
I have given 8 weeks notice to my current landlord and have to leave my rented flat in Tenbury Wells by the end of next month. Conveyancing on my purchase is progressing. How realistic is it to complete in three weeks as don't want to have to move into temporary accommodation?
The normal practice is not to provide notice on a rental unless exchange of contracts has taken place. Assuming that you have not previously done so, update to your conveyancer and request that they apply pressure on the owners solicitors, try to get a realistic time scale from them that everyone will look towards
My father informed me that in purchasing a property in Tenbury Wells there may be various restrictions affecting the ability to carry out external changes to a property. Is this right?

I am the single beneficiary of my late mum's estate with all property in now in my sole name, including the house in Tenbury Wells. The Tenbury Wells property was put into my name in June. I want to move. I do know about the Mortgage Lenders six month 'rule', which means that my property ownership may be regarded the same way as though I had purchased the house in June. Do I have to wait 6 months to sell?
The Council of Mortgage Lenders’ handbook obliges conveyancers to: "report to us immediately if the owner or registered proprietor has been registered for less than six months." By the strict wording you may be impacted by that. Some banks would take a pragmatic view as this obligation is chiefly there to identify the purchase and immediately sell or the flipping of property.

I am looking at a couple of apartments in Tenbury Wells both have in the region of fifty years remaining on the leases. should I be concerned?
There are plenty of short leases in Tenbury Wells. The lease is a legal document that entitles you to use the premises for a period of time. As a lease shortens the value of the lease decreases and it becomes more expensive to extend the lease. This is why it is advisable to increase the term of the lease. Sometimes it is difficult to sell a property with a short lease as mortgage lenders may be reluctant to lend money on such properties. Lease enfranchisement can be a difficult process. We recommend you get professional assistance from a conveyancer and surveyor with experience in this area.
