My wife and I have organised the release of further monies on our home loan from Nottingham as we intend to carry out a loft conversion to our property in Brackla. Are we obliged to appoint a high street Brackla solicitor on the Nottingham conveyancing panel to handle the paperwork?
Nottingham would not normally instruct firms on their approved list of lawyers 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 list.
I had a mortgage agreed in principle with Nationwide. Brackla conveyancing practitioners have been instructed. What is the average time that one could expect to receive a mortgage offer from Nationwide?
There is no definitive answer here. Have Nationwide conducted the valuation? Have you informed Nationwide as to your lawyers' details and checked that your lawyers are on the Nationwide conveyancing panel? Sometimes it can take as long as six weeks for a mortgage offer to be issued.

I have been on the look out for a leasehold apartment up to £235,500 and found one near me in Brackla I like with amenity areas and station in the vicinity, the downside is that it only has 61 years on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Brackla suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake acquiring a short lease?
If you need a home loan the shortness of the lease will be problematic. Reduce the offer by the amount the lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the existing owner has owned the property for at least 2 years you could request that they commence the lease extension formalities and pass it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the existing lease and have £0 ground rent by law. You should speak to your conveyancing solicitor concerning this matter.

Jane (my partner) and I may need to rent out our Brackla garden flat temporarily due to a new job. We instructed a Brackla conveyancing firm in 2001 but they have since shut and we did not have the foresight to get any guidance as to whether the lease allows us to sublet. How do we find out?
The lease dictates relations between the landlord and you the leaseholder; in particular, it will say if subletting is not allowed, or permitted but only subject to certain conditions. The rule is that if the lease contains no expres ban or restriction, subletting is allowed. The majority of leases in Brackla do not prevent an absolute prevention of subletting – such a clause would undoubtedly devalue the flat. Instead, there is usually a basic requirement that the owner notifies the freeholder, possibly supplying a copy of the sublease.
