I can not work out if my lender requires a lease extension. I have called my Cann Hall building society branch on a couple of occasions and was informed it wasn't a problem and they will lend. My Cann Hall conveyancing solicitor - who is on the bank conveyancing panel- called and was told they refuse to lend based on their UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook minimum lease term requirements. I simply don't know who is right.

As long as the solicitor is on the bank approved list, she or he must follow the Council of Mortgage Lenders’ Handbook requirements for the lender.
