I have been advised by my solicitor that defective lease insurance is necessary on my purchase. What is the typical level of cover needed for conveyancing in Maxton?

We are getting the release of further monies on our home loan from Aldermore as we intend to carry out alterations to our property in Maxton. Are we obliged to choose a bricks and mortar Maxton solicitor on the Aldermore conveyancing panel to handle the legals?
Aldermore would not normally instruct firms on their conveyancing panel to deal with such a matter. If they do require any legal work then you would need to ensure that such a lawyer was on the Aldermore conveyancing panel.
It is unclear whether my bank requires a lease extension. I have called into my local Maxton building society branch on various occasions and was told it does not affect the mortgage offer and they will lend. My Maxton conveyancing solicitor - who is on the mortgage company conveyancing panel- called and was told they refuse to lend based on their published requirements. I simply don't know who is right.
Provided that the conveyancing practitioner is on the lender panel, she or he must comply with the CML Handbook provisions for the lender. Unless your lawyer obtains specific confirmation in writing that the bank 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.
How does conveyancing in Maxton differ for new build properties?
Most buyers of new build premises in Maxton come to us having been asked by the builder to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the property is ready to move into. This is because house builders in Maxton tend to acquire the real estate, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct conveyancing solicitors as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are accustomed to new build conveyancing in Maxton or who has acted in the same development.
