Your solicitor should check the deeds as conveyancing in Clun will on occasion reveal restrictions in the title documents which restrict certain works or need the permission of a 3rd party.

I can not fathom if my bank obliges me to make sure the lease term for the flat is extended prior to the completion date. I have called my Clun bank branch on numerous occasions and was reassured it wasn't an issue and they will lend. My Clun conveyancing solicitor - who is on the lender conveyancing panel- telephoned and was told they will not lend based on their UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook minimum lease term requirements. Who do I believe?
As long as the conveyancing practitioner is on the bank panel, she or he must follow the Council of Mortgage Lenders’ Handbook specifications for the bank. 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 lender to contact your lawyer in writing confirming that they will accept the number of years left on the lease.
