It is true that some banks and building societies now utilise CQS as the kick off point for Panel membership such as HSBC and Santander.

Over the last few months I have been searching for a leasehold apartment up to £195,000 and identified one near me in Cinderford I like with a park and railway links in the vicinity, however it only has 61 remaining years left on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Cinderford for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake acquiring a lease with such few years left?
Should you require a mortgage that many years will likely be a potential deal breaker. Reduce the offer by the expected lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the current proprietor has owned the premises for a minimum of 2 years you could ask them to start the process of the extension and pass it to you. You can add 90 years to the existing lease and have £0 ground rent by law. You should consult your conveyancing lawyer regarding this matter.

My mother and father are unable to locate their Cinderford property on the HM Land Registry site. They have a vague memory fifty years ago when they purchased the bungalow there were complications concerning the post code not being recognised in some systems.
The vast majority of properties in Cinderford should appear. Have you limited your search to simply the postcode. Usually it should reveal all the premises within that postcode. Where registered it will show up with a title number. Where they bought back in the 70’s it's conceivable it may be unregistered. The address may still be revealed but with the title number identified as 'na'. In this scenario you will need to locate the original title documentation which may be with your parent’s bank.
