I can not fathom if my bank requires a lease extension. I have telephoned my Penwortham bank branch on various occasions and was informed it wasn't a problem and they will lend. My Penwortham conveyancing solicitor - who is on the mortgage company conveyancing panel- telephoned and was told they will not lend in accordance with their UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook minimum lease term requirements. I simply don't know who is right.
Your conveyancing practitioner has to follow the CML Handbook section two requirements for your bank. Unless your lawyer obtains specific confirmation in writing that the mortgage company 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 mortgage company to contact your lawyer in writing confirming that they will accept the number of years left on the lease.

How does conveyancing in Penwortham differ for newly converted properties?
Most buyers of new build residence in Penwortham come to us having been asked by the seller to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the residence is constructed. This is because house builders in Penwortham tend to buy the land, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct conveyancers as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are accustomed to new build conveyancing in Penwortham or who has acted in the same development.

New build sellers have suggested I use a conveyancer and I've obtained an estimate from them. It's nearly £250 cheaper than my local Penwortham conveyancing practitioner. What's the catch?
Builders often have lists of property lawyers who expedite matters and who know the developer’s documentation and conveyancing practitioner. Plenty of developers offer an incentive to use their approved conveyancing practitioner for this reason, any increased fees can be avoided and a builder won't put forward a conveyancing warehouse and run the risk of having the transaction delayed when they need an exchange inside a month. The argument for not agreeing to use the recommended conveyancer is that they may be unwilling to 'push' your interests at the risk of alienating the developer. If you worry that this may be the situation you should keep with your high street Penwortham conveyancing practitioner.
