What happens if my lawyer’s firm is removed from the Coventry BS Conveyancing panel ahead of completing my conveyancing in Newport Pagnell?
First, this is a very rare occurrence. In most cases even where a law firm is removed off of a panel the lender would allow the completion to go ahead as the lender would appreciate the difficulties that they would place you in if you have to instruct a new solicitor days before completion. In a worst case scenario where the lender insists that you instruct a new firm then it is possible for a very good lawyer to expedite the conveyancing albeit that you may pay a significant premium for this. The analogous situation is where a buyer instructs a lawyer, exchanges contracts and the law firm is shut down by a regulator such as the SRA. Again, in this situation you can find lawyers who can troubleshoot their way to bring the conveyancing to a satisfactory conclusion - albeit at a cost.

I am buying my first flat in Newport Pagnell with a mortgage from Britannia. The builders would not move on the price so I negotiated 6k of extras instead. The sale representative told me not to tell my conveyancer about this side-deal as it will adversely affect my mortgage with the bank. Is this normal?.

I have been on the look out for a leasehold apartment up to £305k and identified one round the corner in Newport Pagnell I like with open areas and railway links nearby, the downside is that it's only got 52 years on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Newport Pagnell suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake buying a lease with such few years left?
Should you need a home loan the remaining unexpired lease term will likely be a potential deal breaker. Discount the price by the amount the lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the existing owner has owned the premises for a minimum of 2 years 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 existing lease term and have £0 ground rent by law. You should speak to your conveyancing lawyer regarding this matter.
