My mortgage broker says he needs my Fradley law firm’s panel member for the Lloyds conveyancing panel. Can you suggest how I discover this. I have e-mailed my local Fradley office but they have not got back to me yet.
The sensible thing to do is ask for this information from your Fradley conveyancer . Most Fradley conveyancing firms will keep a file or database of lender panel information which would include, if applicable, their conveyancing panel details for each mortgage company.
Do all mortgage companies provide you with an approved list of Fradley conveyancing solicitors? How do you know who is on the Yorkshire BS conveyancing panel?
Fradley conveyancing firms themselves provide us confirmation that they are on the Yorkshire BS conveyancing panel as opposed to being supplied with a list from Yorkshire BS directly.

I had an offer accepted on an apartment in Fradley on 18/12/2025, valuation was booked 2 days after, received a clean bill of health. Conveyancer retained, so all that was missing was my mortgage offer. Having made daily calls to Bank of Ireland and chasing them on my offer, I have now been told that my offer will not be issued unless the lawyer is on the Bank of Ireland conveyancing panel. Can the lender hold off the offer?
Mortgage companies tend not to not issue a mortgage until they have details of a lawyer on their panel. It can take a few weeks for Bank of Ireland to deal with your lawyer's application to be on the Bank of Ireland conveyancing panel. There's no guarantee that your solicitor will be accepted.

Do use our search tool on this site to check that the lawyers are approved by both lenders. On the basis that they are the solicitor will be able to connect the two conveyancing matters but you should talk with you solicitor and make clear your desired outcome and needs.
We own a leasehold flat in Fradley. Conveyancing was finalised in five years ago. I have heard that I should not allow the the remaining lease term to get too short. What is the reasoning?
Fradley domestic long term leases are for a fixed term - usually just under one hundred years when they are first granted. However many appartments in Fradley were constructed or converted 35 or more years ago and so such leases now have less than 80 years unexpired. That may sound like a long time however Banks, Building Societies and other mortgage institutions tend to require leases to have a minimum of 75 years remaining to adequate security. Accordingly when you come to sell the property you will need to extend the term of your lease if you are getting close to 75 years. To enhance the marketability of your property you should be thinking about whether or not to extend your lease long before you come to sell it. Please note that there are strong financial reasons to taking action before the lease hits 80 years as when the lease is below eighty years the amount to be paid to extend starts to get a lot more expensive.
