I have called my Burwell bank branch on various occasions and was told it does not impact the mortgage offer and they would lend. My Burwell conveyancing solicitor - who is on the bank conveyancing panel- called to say that they refuse to lend based on their published requirements. I simply don't know who is right.

Your conveyancing practitioner has to follow the Council of Mortgage Lenders’ Handbook Part 2 provisions for your 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 bank to contact your lawyer in writing confirming that they will accept the number of years remaining.
