Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Anston

My wife and I are planning to buy a house in Anston and are in fact using a Anston conveyancing firm. Within the past 48 hours our conveyancer has forwarded the sale agreement to be signed with a detailed report in anticipation of exchanging contracts shortly. Aldermore have this afternoon contacted us to advise us that they have now hit a problem as our Anston conveyancer is not on their conveyancing panel. What do we do from here?

Where you are buying a property with the assistance of a mortgage it is standard for the purchasers' solicitors to also act for the mortgage company. In order to act for a bank or building society a law firm has to be on that lender's conveyancing panel. An application has to be made by the law firm to the lender to become a member of the lender's panel and there are increasingly strict criteria which the firm has to satisfy and indeed some lenders now require their panel members to be part of the Law Society’s Conveyancing Quality Scheme. Your solicitor should contact your bank and see if they can apply for membership of their conveyancing panel, but if that is not viable they will instruct their own solicitors to act. You are not legally obliged to appoint a law firm on the bank's conveyancing panel and you may continue to use your own Anston solicitors, in which case it will likely add costs, and it may delay matters as you have another set of people involved.

My wife and I have recently appointed a conveyancing solicitor in Anston. I I would like to check whether they are on the The Royal Bank of Scotland conveyancing panel. Could you or the lender confirm if they are on the panel?

The first thing you should do is call the solicitor and enquire if they are on the lender panel. Alternatively please get in touch with The Royal Bank of Scotland who may be able to help.

My relative advised me that where I am buying in Anston I should carry out a Neighbourhood, Planning and Local Amenity Search. Can you explain what the purpose of this search is?

This is a search is usually included in the estimate for your Anston conveyancing searches. It is a large report of about 40 pages, listing and detailing significant information about Anston around the property and the people living there. It includes an Aerial Photograph, Planning Applications, Land Use, Mobile Phone Masts, Rights of Way, the local Housing Market, Council Tax Banding, the demographics of People living in the area, the dominant type of Housing, the Average House Prices, Crime details, Local Education with maps and statistics, Local Amenities and other useful information regarding Anston.

Me and my brother purchased a 4 bedroom Edwardian house in Anston. Conveyancing practitioner represented me and Barclays Direct. I did a free Land Registry search last week and there are two entries: the first freehold, another for leasehold with the matching property. If a house is not a freehold shouldn't I have been informed?

You should read the Freehold register you have again and check the Charges Register as there may be mention of a lease. The best way to be sure that you are also the registered owner of the leasehold and freehold title as well is to check (£3). It is not completely unheard of in Anston and other areas of the country and poses no real issues for owners other than when they sell they have to account for both freehold and leasehold interests when dealing with mortgage companies. You can also enquire as to the situation with your conveyancing lawyer who conducted the conveyancing.
