My apartment in Dawlish is up for sale and I have a purchaser. Will my conveyancing practitioner have to be required to be on the Lloyds conveyancing panel in order to deal with paying off my mortgage?
Ordinarily, even if your lawyer is not on the Lloyds conveyancing panel they can still act for you on your sale. It might be that the lender will not release the original deeds (if applicable and increasingly irrelevant) until after the mortgage is paid off. You should speak to your lawyer directly before you start the process though to ensure that there is no problem as lenders are changing their panel criteria fairly frequently currently.
I have been on the look out for a leasehold apartment up to £195,000 and identified one round the corner in Dawlish I like with a park and station in the vicinity, however it only has 51 years unexpired on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Dawlish suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake acquiring a lease with such few years left?
Should you need a mortgage the shortness of the lease will likely be problematic. Reduce the offer by the anticipated lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the existing owner has owned the premises for a minimum of 2 years you could request that they start the process of the extension and then assign it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the current lease term and have £0 ground rent by law. You should speak to your conveyancing lawyer about this matter.

It is not impossible in leasehold conveyancing in Dawlish to find Conveyancing in Dawlish in a minority of cases reveals that the lease obliges the leasehold owners to insure their individual flats rather than the landlord insuring the complete block - which is clearly preferable.

Insuring your flat is no help when it comes to rebuilding after a fire if the 1st floor cannot be reconstructed for lack of insurance cover.
