Mortgage offer extension

Is such a thing possible? I know I have six months but the solicitors have only just now sent a letter across, months late. I’m trying to purchase a share of a property I live in, after being left a share from my late mum. We haven’t yet completed confirmation of her will so we are waiting for that too. I have until January and the other party is being very difficult. I’m getting worried!

    It varies from lender to lender. Nationwide you have to reapply. Halifax it's a valuation refresh after six months and a simple choice of a new product.
