I am purchasing residence in Walton on the Naze. My property lawyer is not listed on the mortgage company solicitor list. Am I still permitted to appoint my Walton on the Naze conveyancing solicitor even though they are not on the mortgage company panel of approved conveyancing solicitors?

You will need to instruct a conveyancing practitioner to deal with the legal work required if you require a loan to purchase your property. They will conduct all the relevant investigations on the property, make sure that you’re registered as proprietor and ensure that all the required mortgage documentation is in place. You can instruct a Walton on the Naze conveyancing practitioner of your choice. Nevertheless, where the conveyancer appointed is not a member of the lender approved list additional costs will be levied as separate legal representation will be required by them. Conveyancing panel applications may be submitted, so where your conveyancer has not previously applied for membership they should do so.

It may be that Clydesdale will allow you to rent out your former home without needing to switch to a buy-to-let mortgage but some lenders will add a surcharge to your mortgage rate to reflect the higher risk. You should contact Clydesdale directly. It should not be necessary to do this via a Clydesdale conveyancing panel lawyer.

I am a negotiator for a busy estate agent office in Walton on the Naze where we have witnessed a few flat sales put at risk due to short leases. I have received inconsistent advice from local Walton on the Naze conveyancing solicitors. Could you clarify whether the seller of a flat can initiate the lease extension process for the purchaser on completion of the sale?

As long as the seller has been the owner for at least 2 years it is possible, to serve a Section 42 notice to commence the lease extension process and assign the benefit of the notice to the purchaser. The benefit of this is that the proposed purchaser need not have to wait 2 years to extend their lease. Both sets of lawyers will agree to form of assignment. The assignment has to be done before, or simultaneously with completion of the disposal of the property.

Alternatively, it may be possible to agree the lease extension with the freeholder either before or after the sale. If you are informally negotiating there are no rules and so you cannot insist on the landlord agreeing to grant an extension or transferring the benefit of an agreement to the buyer.
