It is unclear whether my mortgage offer obliges me to make sure the lease term for the flat is extended prior to the completion date. I have telephoned my Denbigh building society branch on various occasions and was told they are content with the situation and they would lend. My Denbigh conveyancing solicitor - who is on the lender conveyancing panel- telephoned to say that they will not lend based on their specific requirements. Who do I believe?
As long as the property lawyer is on the bank approved list, they must follow the Council of Mortgage Lenders’ Handbook specifications for the bank. Unless your lawyer obtains specific confirmation in writing that the bank will go ahead, your lawyer has no choice but to refrain from exchanging contract and committing you to the purchase.
