Unfortunately both you and your lawyer have little choice here. As you are taking a mortgage with a mortgage company your lawyer has to comply with their conditions as set out in their version of the UK Finance Conveyancing Handbook. Your property lawyer would have previously signed the Terms and Conditions of your lender’s conveyancing panel appointment which obliges them to comply with the Council of Mortgage Lenders’ Handbook provisions . Even if you were a cash buyer you would be ill advised not to carry out Pyle conveyancing searches.

I acquired my home on 12 June and the transaction details are still not on the land registry website. Any reason for this? My conveyancing solicitor in Pyle said it would be concluded in less than a month. Are titles in Pyle particularly slow to register?
As far as conveyancing in Pyle is concerned, registration is no faster or slower than anywhere else in the country. Rather than based on location, timeframes can differ depending on who lodges the application, whether there are errors and whether the Land registry communicate with any interested persons or bodies. At present in the region of 80% of such applications are fully addressed within two weeks but some can be subject to protracted delays. Registration takes place once the buyer is living at the premises so post completion formalities is not typically primary concern yet where there is a degree of urgency associated with the registration then you or your lawyers must contact the land registry and explain the circumstances.
Over the last few months I have been searching for a flat up to £235,500 and found one near me in Pyle I like with a park and transport links in the vicinity, however it only has 52 remaining years left on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Pyle in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake buying a lease with such few years left?
Should you need a mortgage the shortness of the lease will likely be a potential deal breaker. Discount the price by the anticipated lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the existing proprietor has owned the property for a minimum of 2 years you could 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 consult your conveyancing solicitor about this.
