I can not fathom if my lender requires a lease extension. I have called into my local Chadderton building society branch on numerous occasions and was told it does not affect the mortgage offer and they would lend. My Chadderton conveyancing solicitor - who is on the lender conveyancing panel- telephoned and was told they refuse to lend based on their specific requirements. Who do I believe?

As long as the property lawyer is on the bank panel, they must follow the CML Handbook requirements for the bank. Unless your lawyer obtains specific confirmation in writing that the mortgage company 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 lender to contact your lawyer in writing confirming that they will accept the number of years left on the lease.

I am downsizing from our house in Chadderton and according to the buyers it appears that there is a possibility that the property was built land that was not decontaminated.

For the life of me I don't know why the buyers instructed a web based conveyancing outfit rather than a conveyancing solicitor in Chadderton. Having lived in Chadderton for 5 years we know of no issue. Do we get in touch with our local Authority to seek clarification that the buyers are looking for.

It sounds as though you may have a conveyancing solicitor currently acting for you. What do they say? You must enquire of your lawyer before you do anything. It is very possible that once the local authority has been informed of a potential issue it cannot be insured against (a bit like being diagnosed with a serious illness and then taking out health insurance to cover that same sickness)

My husband and I are four weeks into a leasehold purchase having been recommend to conveyancers by the high street agent to do our conveyancing in Chadderton. I am am very frustrated with the level of service. Could you help me find new lawyers?

They would have to be very bad to suggest changing them. Has your mortgage offer been generated? If so you need to make them aware of the new contact details and have the mortgage documents are issued to the new lawyers. Your new conveyancer needs to be on the mortgage company panel to avoid supplemental expenses and complications. That should be your first question of the new conveyancers. Our search tool should help you find a lender approved lawyer for your home move in Chadderton
