I had a mortgage agreed in principle with Nationwide. Liphook conveyancing practitioners are chosen. How long does it take for Nationwide to issue the offer to the conveyancer?

I can not fathom if my lender obliges me to make sure the lease term for the flat is extended prior to the completion date. I have called into my local Liphook bank branch on numerous occasions and was reassured it wasn't an issue and they will lend. My Liphook conveyancing solicitor - who is on the mortgage company conveyancing panel- called to say that they will not lend in accordance with their UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook minimum lease term requirements. Who do I believe?

Your conveyancing practitioner must follow the CML Handbook section two requirements for your bank. Unless your lawyer obtains specific confirmation in writing that the mortgage company 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 mortgage company to contact your lawyer in writing confirming that they will accept the number of years remaining.
