I am not well enough to travel far from Ferring. Please spell out why all Ferring lawyers aren't included on all bank panels?

As inequitable as it may seem for lenders to limit who can represent them, from the public’s or conveyancer’s viewpoint, the flip side is that lending institutions are becoming ever more anxious and regard it crucial to protect them against mortgage fraud. As a consequence of this concern mortgage companies are limiting their conveyancing panel to a size that they are happy to control.

It is 10 years ago since I acquired my house in Ferring. Conveyancing solicitors have now been retained on the sale but I am unable to locate my title documents. Is this a problem?

Don’t worry too much. First there is a possibility that the deeds will be kept by your mortgage company or they could be in the possession of the conveyancers who oversaw the purchase. Secondly the likelihood is that the title will be registered at the land registry and you will be able to prove you are the registered owner by your conveyancing solicitors procuring current official copies of the land registers. Almost all conveyancing in Ferring involves registered property but in the rare situation where your property is not registered it is more problematic but is resolvable.

Its becoming the norm that commercial conveyancing solicitors in Ferring will conduct a SiteSolutions Highways report as it reduces the time that conveyancers invest in sourcing accurate data on highways that impact buildings and development assets in Ferring.

I have been on the look out for a flat up to £195,000 and identified one close by in Ferring I like with open areas and transport links in the vicinity, the downside is that it only has 49 years unexpired on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Ferring for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error purchasing a lease with such few years left?

If you need a mortgage that many years will likely be problematic. Reduce the offer by the amount the lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the current owner has owned the premises for at least twenty four months you can request that they commence the lease extension formalities and then assign it to you. You can add 90 years to the existing lease term with a zero ground rent applied. You should speak to your conveyancing lawyer about this.
