My husband and I have organised the release of further funds on our mortgage from Nottingham as we wish to carry out a loft conversion to our home in Aldborough Hatch. Do we need to appoint a bricks and mortar Aldborough Hatch solicitor on the Nottingham conveyancing panel to deal with the legals?

Nottingham do not ordinarily instruct firms on their conveyancing panel to handle such a matter. If they do require any legal work then you would need to ensure that such a lawyer was on the Nottingham conveyancing panel.

I can not work out 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 Aldborough Hatch building society branch on various occasions and was told it wasn't an issue and they would lend. My Aldborough Hatch conveyancing solicitor - who is on the bank conveyancing panel- telephoned to say that they refuse to lend in accordance with their specific requirements. Who do I believe?

As long as the property lawyer is on the lender panel, she or he must follow the CML Handbook conditions 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 mortgage company to contact your lawyer in writing confirming that they will accept the number of years left on the lease.

My offer was accepted on a house in Aldborough Hatch on 17/1/2025, valuation was booked 2 days later, all came back fine. Conveyancer retained, so the only thing outstanding was my mortgage offer. Having made daily calls to Yorkshire BS and chasing them on my offer, I have now been told that my offer will not be issued unless the lawyer is on the Yorkshire BS conveyancing panel. Can the lender hold off the offer?

Mortgage companies tend not to not issue an offer until they have details of a lawyer on their panel. It can take a few weeks for Yorkshire BS to deal with your lawyer's application to be on the Yorkshire BS conveyancing panel. There's no guarantee that your solicitor will be accepted.
