When it comes to conveyancing in Tetbury obtaining recommendations is a sensible starting point. Before you go ahead, check if they offer a no sale no fee offer.

I can not fathom if my mortgage offer obliges me to make sure the lease term for the flat is extended prior to the completion date. I have called into my local Tetbury building society branch on a couple of occasions and was told they are content with the situation and they will lend. My Tetbury conveyancing solicitor - who is on the mortgage company conveyancing panel- called and was told they will not lend based on their specific requirements. Who do I believe?
As long as the property lawyer is on the mortgage company approved list, they must adhere to the Council of Mortgage Lenders’ Handbook provisions for the bank. Unless your lawyer obtains specific confirmation in writing that the bank will go ahead, your lawyer has no choice but to refrain from exchanging contract and committing you to the purchase. We would suggest that you ask the lender to contact your lawyer in writing confirming that they will accept the number of years remaining.
I have justbecome aware that Action Conveyancing have closed. They conducted my conveyancing in Tetbury for a purchase of a freehold house 12 months ago. How can I be sure that the property is not still registered in the name of the previous owner?

Yesterday I discovered that there is a flying freehold issue on a house I have offered on two weeks back in what should have been a straight forward, chain free conveyancing. Tetbury is where the house is located. Can you offer any opinion?

You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold premises.
