Am I correct in assuming that the fact that my conveyancer in Y Felinheli is not identified on my bank's solicitor panel that there is a problem with the quality of the firm’s conveyancing?
It would be unwise to jump to that conclusion. There are plenty of reasonable explanations. A recent report by the solicitors regulator indicated that over three quarters of law firms surveyed had been removed from at least one lender panel. The most common reasons for removal are: (1) low volume of transactions (2) the lawyer is a sole practitioner (3) as part of the HSBC panel reduction (4) regulatory contact by SRA (5) accidental removal. Should you be concerned you should simply call the Y Felinheli conveyancing firm and enquire why they are no longer on the approved list for your lender.

When it comes to lenders such as Santander, do Y Felinheli lawyers have to pay a fee to be on the list of approved solicitors?
We are unaware of any mortgage company fees to register on their list of approved firms, although some do levy an administration fee to deal with the processing of the conveyancing panel submission.

I have been on the look out for a leasehold apartment up to £235,500 and found one round the corner in Y Felinheli I like with amenity areas and railway links in the vicinity, the downside is that it's only got 61 remaining years left on the lease. There is not much else in Y Felinheli for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake purchasing a short lease?
If you need a home loan the shortness of the lease will likely be an issue. Discount the offer 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 may ask them to start the process of the extension and pass it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the existing lease and have £0 ground rent by law. You should consult your conveyancing solicitor regarding this matter.

Where a Y Felinheli lease has less than eighty years it will have adverse implications on the salability of the flat. Check with your lender that they are willing to go ahead with the loan given the lease term. Leases with less than 80 years remaining means that you will almost definitely have to extend the lease sooner rather than later and it is worth discovering how much this would cost. For most Y Felinhelilease extensions you will be be obliged to have been the owner of the premises for a couple of years in order to be legally able to extend the lease. It is important to be aware if redecorating or some other major work is coming up that will be shared by the tenants and could well materially impact the level of the service costs or necessitate a specific invoice.
