It is not clear whether my bank obliges me to make sure the lease term for the flat is extended prior to the completion date. I have called into my local Tilbury building society branch on a couple of occasions and was reassured it wasn't a problem and they would lend. My Tilbury conveyancing solicitor - who is on the lender conveyancing panel- telephoned to say that they refuse to lend based on their UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook minimum lease term requirements. I simply don't know who is right.
Provided that the property lawyer is on the mortgage company panel, she or he must comply with the Council of Mortgage Lenders’ Handbook provisions for the lender. Unless your lawyer obtains specific confirmation in writing that the lender 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 bank to contact your lawyer in writing confirming that they will accept the number of years left on the lease.
I am selling our home in Tilbury and according to the buyers it appears that there is a risk of it being constructed land that was not decontaminated. Any high street Tilbury lawyer would know this is not the case. It does beg the question why the purchasers are using a national conveyancing outfit as opposed to a conveyancing solicitor in Tilbury. We have lived in Tilbury for 5 years we know of no issue. Do we get in touch with our local Authority to get clarification that the buyers are looking for.
It sounds as though you may have a conveyancing lawyer already. Are they able to advise? You must check with 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 sickness)

My husband and I may need to sub-let our Tilbury basement flat temporarily due to a new job. We used a Tilbury conveyancing firm in 2002 but they have since shut and we did not think at the time seek any guidance as to whether the lease permits subletting. How do we find out?
Notwithstanding that your last Tilbury conveyancing solicitor is not around you can review your lease to see if it allows you to sublet the apartment. The rule is that if the deeds are non-specific, subletting is permitted. Quite often there is a prerequisite that you must seek consent from your landlord or other appropriate person prior to subletting. This means you not allowed to sublet in the absence of prior permission. Such consent is not allowed to be unreasonably withheld. If your lease prohibits you from subletting the property you should ask your landlord for their consent.
