Me and my fiance are purchasing a flat in Edmonton. My lawyer is not listed on the lender solicitor panel. Can I still retain my Edmonton conveyancing solicitor even though they are excluded from the lender approved list?
You must use a conveyancing practitioner to deal with the formalities when you require a mortgage to purchase your property. They will conduct all the relevant due diligence on the property, ensuring that you will be properly registered as the owner and ensure that all the necessary mortgage paperwork is in order. You could select a Edmonton lawyer of your choosing. However, if the property lawyer selected is not on the bank approved list supplemental fees will be levied as separate legal representation will be required by them. Conveyancing panel applications may be submitted, so provided your lawyer has not historically applied for membership they should do so.
We were just about to sign contracts for a freehold house in Edmonton. We have hit a stumbling block. Our mortgage offer with Aldermore expires on 15/6/2026 but the sellers are putting forward a completion date of 17/6/2026. Is it possible to extend the mortgage expiry date?
The best person to address this question is your lawyer who will hopefully assess whether they better off negotiating with the bank, vendor’s conveyancers, selling agents or conceivably all three taking into account what has gone on in your transaction to date.

Investor purchasers must be able to freely grant unsecured tenancies at market rents without requiring any consents. The Lease must contain a provision on behalf of the Vendor to pay the service charges in respect of unoccupied units in order to ensure that all services can be provided.

Where service of notices and proceedings can be at the property demised please confirm that this can be amended to include simultaneous services at the Lessees’ solicitors’ offices where the Lessee from time to time is not resident in the UK - such solicitors may be varied by notice in writing to the Landlord from time to time but otherwise will be as previously specified.
Over the last few months I have been searching for a ground for flat up to £195,000 and found one near me in Edmonton I like with a park and transport links nearby, the downside is that it's only got 61 remaining years left on the lease. There is not much else in Edmonton for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error buying a short lease?
If you require a mortgage the shortness of the lease may be an issue. Discount the price by the amount the lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the existing owner has owned the premises for a minimum of twenty four months you can 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 consult your conveyancing lawyer regarding this matter.
