Much to our surprise we have been told by our broker that my Williton solicitor is not on the lender Solicitor panel. How can I be sure whether this is correct?
The best course of action for you to take is to contact your Williton lawyer directly. It is reasonable to expect your lawyer to notify you of the situation. Where they are not on the panel they may be able to suggest a Williton conveyancing firm that is on the conveyancing panel for your lender.

2 months have gone by since my purchase conveyancing in Williton completed. I have checked the Land Registry site which shows that I paid £200,000 when infact I paid £180,000. Why the discrepancy?
The price paid figure is taken from the application to register the purchase. It is the figure included in the Transfer (the legal deed which transfers the residence from one person to the other) and referred to as the 'consideration' or purchase price. You can report an error in the price paid figure using the LR online form. In most cases errors result from typos so at first glance the figure. Do report it so they can double check and advise.
I have been on the look out for a ground for flat up to £305k and found one close by in Williton I like with a park and transport links nearby, however it only has 52 years on the lease. There is not much else in Williton in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error buying a lease with such few years left?
Should you require a mortgage the remaining unexpired lease term will be problematic. Reduce the price by the amount the lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the existing proprietor has owned the premises for at least twenty four months you could request that they commence the lease extension formalities and then assign it to you. You can add 90 years to the existing lease term with a zero ground rent applied. You should speak to your conveyancing lawyer concerning this matter.
