I can't travel far from Thornaby. What is the rationale as to why all Thornaby conveyancers aren't included on all lender panels?
As unjust as it may appear for banks to limit who can represent them, from the public’s or lawyer’s standpoint, the the contrary view is that mortgage companies are increasingly anxious and feel it vital to shield themselves against illegal activities. As a result of this concern lenders are limiting their panel of approved conveyancing lawyers to a size that they are happy to control.

I have been on the look out for a ground for flat up to £305k and found one round the corner in Thornaby I like with open areas and station nearby, the downside is that it's only got 61 years unexpired on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Thornaby in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake purchasing a lease with such few years left?
Should you require a mortgage the shortness of the lease will likely be an issue. 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 twenty four months you can ask them to start the process of the extension and pass it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the current lease term and have £0 ground rent by law. You should consult your conveyancing solicitor about this matter.
