I have just been advised by my estate agent that my Longford solicitor is not on the lender Conveyancing panel. What can I do to be certain if this is indeed the case?

You need to call your Longford lawyer directly. It is reasonable to expect your lawyer to notify you what has happened. Where they are not on the panel they may recommend you to a Longford conveyancing practice that is on the approved list of lawyers for your lender.

    Has the Lease plan been approved by the Land Registry and if not when will they be lodged for this purpose? 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. If there are lifts in the building, please confirm that the owners of flats on the ground and basement floors will not be required to contribute towards the cost of maintenance and renewal. Please provide evidence that the form of Lease proposed has been approved by the Land Registry.

In what way can the Landlord & Tenant Act 1954 affect my commercial premises in Longford and how can you help?

The 1954 Act affords protection to business lessees, granting the dueness to apply to court for a continuation of occupancy at the end of the lease term. There are limited grounds where a landlord can refuse a lease renewal and the rules are complex. Fees are different for commercial conveyancing. Longford is one of the hundreds of areas of the UK in which our lawyers are based

My fiance and I yesterday become aware that one of the directors of the solicitors acting on the purchase conveyancing in Longford is an aunty of the owners that we are purchasing from. Is this allowed?

On the basis that no conflict arises this is permitted. Where you are obtaining mortgage finance then the bank may have a say as many lenders have specific instructions on this. For example for Yorkshire Building Society as of 23/3/2024, the requirements read as follows :

1.15- May your firm act if the person dealing with the transaction or a member of his immediate family is the borrower?

Yes, provided that:
* there is no conflict of interest and none arises during the transaction
* the firm is a partnership
* the conveyancer acting is not the borrower or a member of the borrower's immediate family
