we are a couple who are hoping to buy a newly converted apartment in Lake with a mortgage from Godiva Mortgages Ltd.We would like to retain our Lake conveyancing practitioner but Godiva Mortgages Ltd advised that his firm is not on their "panel". It seems we are left with no choice but to instruct a Godiva Mortgages Ltd panel firm or retain our high street solicitor and fork out for one of their panel ones to represent them. We feel as though this is unjust; is there anything we can do?

No, not really. The loan issued to you contains various provisions, a common one being that solicitors needs to be on the Godiva Mortgages Ltd approved list. Until recently, most banks had large numbers of law firms on their panels: a borrower could choose one for themselves, as long as it was on the lender's panel. The lender would then simply instruct the borrower's lawyers to act for the lender, too. You can use your lender's panel lawyers or you could borrow from another lender which does not restrict your choice. Another option that might be available is for your lawyer to apply to be on the conveyancing panel for Godiva Mortgages Ltd

Flying freeholds in Lake are not the norm but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Lake you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds very carefully. Your bank may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Lake may ascertain that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold premises.

I invested in buying a basement flat in Lake, conveyancing was carried out in 2010. Can you let me have an estimated range of the fair premium for a lease extension? Comparable properties in Lake with an extended lease are worth £165,000. The ground rent is £50 invoiced every year. The lease comes to an end on 21st October 2100

With 77 years left to run the likely cost is going to range between £7,600 and £8,800 as well as professional fees.

The suggested premium range above a general guide to costs for extending a lease, but we are not able to supply the actual costs without more detailed due diligence. You should not use this information in a Notice of Claim or as an informal offer. There are no doubt other concerns that need to be considered and you obviously should be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. Please do not move forward based on this information before getting professional advice.
