Me and my partner are intending to acquire a 1 bedroom flat in Moelfre with a mortgage. We have a Moelfre solicitor, but the lender advise he's not on their "panel". It seems we have little option but to appoint one of the mortgage company panel firms or keep our Moelfre and pay for one of their panel lawyers to act for them. We regard this is inequitable; is there anything we can do?

Unfortunately,no. Your mortgage offer is subject to its terms and conditions, one of which will be that lawyers will on the lender’s conveyancing panel. Until recently, most lenders had large numbers of law firms on their panels: a borrower could choose one for themselves, as long as it was on the lender's panel. The lender would then simply instruct the borrower's lawyers to act for the lender, too. You can use your lender's panel lawyers or you could borrow from another lender which does not restrict your choice. A further alternative is for your Moelfre conveyancing solicitor to apply to be on the conveyancing panel.

We note that you have a search directory identifying solicitors on the conveyancing panel. Do firms pay you a referral fee if I instruct them for our own conveyancing in Moelfre?

We are a listing service only for law firms wishing to communicate if they are on the conveyancing panel or other lender panels. We do not charge referral fees to any conveyancer that you subsequently appoint for your conveyancing in Moelfre.

Over the last few months I have been searching for a leasehold apartment up to £245,000 and identified one close by in Moelfre I like with amenity areas and transport links nearby, the downside is that it's only got 61 years unexpired on the lease. There is not much else in Moelfre in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake acquiring a short lease?

If you require a home loan the shortness of the lease will be a potential deal breaker. Discount the price by the amount the lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the current owner has owned the property for at least 2 years you can ask them to start the process of the extension and then assign it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the current lease term with a zero ground rent applied. You should consult your conveyancing solicitor about this.

How simple is it to use your search facility to get a fee calculation from a conveyancing practitioner in Moelfre on the approved list for my bank?
