I am considering applying for a Co-operative mortgage for purchase of a newly converted (under development) in Leominster with 70% LTV. Is it compulsory to choose a solicitor on the conveyancing panel for Co-operative ?

In theory, you could use a solicitor that is not on the Co-operative conveyancing panel, but Co-operative would require one of their panel solicitors to be instructed to act in their interests, and you'd have to pay for this - so most people instruct a panel solicitor. It's also easier, as otherwise you'd have to deal with two solicitors for the same transaction.

I bought my home on 2 June and my personal details are still not registered. Need I be worried? My conveyancing solicitor in Leominster said it would be recorded in a couple of weeks. Are properties in Leominster particularly slow to register?

As far as conveyancing in Leominster is concerned, registration is no faster or slower than anywhere else in England and Wales. As opposed to being determined by geographic area, timescales can differ subject to the party submitting the application, whether it is in order and whether the Land registry must send notices to any third parties. Currently roughly 80% of submission are completed in less than three weeks but some can be subject to protracted hold-ups. Historically registration is effected once the purchaser is living at the property thus registration formalities is not typically primary concern but if it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your solicitor could contact the land registry and explain the circumstances.

I opted to have a survey done on a property in Leominster before instructing solicitors. I have been told that there is a flying freehold overhang to the house. Our surveyor has said that some banks will refuse to give a loan on this type of home.

Clauses dealing with recovering service charges for expenditure on the building or common parts.

A defective lease will likely cause problems when trying to sell a property as they can affect a potential buyer’s ability to obtain a mortgage.

Please tell me if there are any major works anticipated that will likely add a premium to the maintenance costs?

Best to be warned if window replacement or some other significant cost is coming up to be shared amongst the leasehold owners and will dramatically impact the level of the maintenance charges or necessitate a one time payment.

You should be aware that where the lease has less than 80 years it will have adverse implications on the marketability of the flat.
