I am in the market for a reasonably priced conveyancer. Should I go for for a national conveyancer rather than a local Framlingham conveyancing lawyer?

Do lenders provide you with an approved list of Framlingham conveyancing solicitors? How do you know who is on the Coventry BS conveyancing panel?
Framlingham conveyancing firms themselves provide us confirmation that they are on the Coventry BS conveyancing panel as opposed to being supplied with a list from Coventry BS directly.
My Conveyancer in Framlingham is not on the Barclays Direct Conveyancing Panel. Is it possible for me to continue with my prefered solicitor even though they are not on the Barclays Direct panel of approved conveyancing solicitors?
Your options are as follows:
- Complete the purchase with your existing Framlingham lawyers but Barclays Direct will need to use a lawyer on their panel. This will inevitably rack up the total conveyancing fees and result in delays.
- Get an alternative solicitor to act in the purchase, obviously checking they are Convince your solicitor to use their best endeavours to join the Barclays Direct conveyancing panel
I have been told that property searches are the number one cause of stalling in Framlingham conveyancing transactions. Is there any truth in this?

Searches are not likely to be the root cause of holding up conveyancing in Framlingham.
I am looking for a leasehold apartment up to £305k and identified one close by in Framlingham I like with a park and transport links nearby, however it's only got 49 years on the lease. There is not much else in Framlingham for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error acquiring a lease with such few years left?
Should you need a mortgage the shortness of the lease will be a potential deal breaker. Reduce the price by the expected lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the current owner has owned the property for a minimum of twenty four months you could request that they commence the lease extension formalities and pass it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the current lease and have £0 ground rent by law. You should speak to your conveyancing lawyer regarding this matter.
