This question may be naive but I am new to the home moving as a first time buyer of a two bedroom flat in St Leonard Shoreditch. Do I pick up the keys to the house on completion from my solicitor? If this is the case, I will appoint a High Street conveyancing solicitor in St Leonard Shoreditch?

On the day of completion you do not need to attend the conveyancers office in St Leonard Shoreditch. Conveyancing lawyers for you will transfer the completion advance to the seller's lawyers, and shortly after the monies have arrived, you should be called to collect the keys from the property Agents and move into your new home. This tends to happen early afternoon.

I can not fathom if my bank obliges me to make sure the lease term for the flat is extended prior to the completion date. I have called my St Leonard Shoreditch bank branch on a couple of occasions and was told it does not impact the mortgage offer and they will lend. My St Leonard Shoreditch conveyancing solicitor - who is on the mortgage company conveyancing panel- telephoned to say that they would not lend based on their UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook minimum lease term requirements. I have no idea who is right.

The conveyancer has to comply with the CML Handbook section two conditions for your bank. Unless your lawyer obtains specific confirmation in writing that the mortgage company will go ahead, your lawyer has no choice but to refrain from exchanging contract and committing you to the purchase. We would suggest that you ask the lender to contact your lawyer in writing confirming that they will accept the number of years left on the lease.

If duplicates are not available, your lawyer can put in place insurance or indemnities against future claims on the premises.

My brother-in-law has suggested I instruct a conveyancing solicitor in St Leonard Shoreditch. I I would like to check if they are on the bank's approved list of lawyers. Can you help?
