I am expecting a offer of a home loan from Lloyds. I hope to instruct a Licensed Conveyancer in Acle. Does the Lloyds Conveyancing panel allow for conveyancers regulated by the CLC?
The Lloyds approved solicitor list is, like many other lenders, associated to the CML or Building Society Association, open to Licensed Conveyancers regulated by the Council of Licensed Conveyancers.
I am buying a property and the solicitor has raised the issue of Chancel Repair to which the house may be liable as it falls into the area of such a church. He has suggested insurance. Is this strictly warranted for conveyancing in Acle
Unless a prior purchase of the house completed post 12 October 2013 you could expect lawyers carrying out conveyancing in Acle to continue to advocate a chancel search and or insurance against a claim.
I am looking for a ground for flat up to £235,500 and found one near me in Acle I like with open areas and station nearby, however it only has 49 remaining years left on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Acle in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake purchasing a short lease?
If you require a home loan that many years will likely be problematic. Reduce the offer by the expected lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the existing owner has owned the property for at least 2 years you may ask them to start the process of the extension and pass it to you. You can add 90 years to the current lease with a zero ground rent applied. You should speak to your conveyancing lawyer about this.
How can the Landlord & Tenant Act 1954 impact my commercial property in Acle and how can you help?
The particular law that you refer to gives protection to commercial tenants, granting the a statutory right to apply to court for a new tenancy and remain in occupation when the lease reaches an end. There are certain specified grounds where a landlord can refuse a lease renewal and the rules are complex. Fees are different for commercial conveyancing.

My father-in-law has suggested that I appoint his conveyancing solicitors in Acle. Do I take his advice?
There are no two ways about it the ideal way to find a conveyancing practitioner is to get feedback from friends or relatives who have experience in using the firm that you are considering.
The conveyancing solicitors handling our conveyancing in Acle has forwarded papers to review that show the property is unregistered with epitome documents. How can it be that the property not registred at the Land Registry?
Whilst most properties in Acle are now registered with HMLR there are still some that are unregistered. Any property in Acle that has been transferred since the late 1980’s will have been registered at the HM Land Registry under the compulsory ‘first registration’ scheme. However, if a Acle property has not changed hands in that time then it’s likely the old fashioned title deeds will be the only evidence of ownership.Many Acle conveyancing lawyers will be capable of dealing with such matters but in the event that uncertainty prevails the conventional recommendation presently is for the vendor’s solicitor to register it first and thereafter sell - this can though naturally result in a drawn-out home move.
