The Aughton conveyancing firm handling our Aughton conveyancing has discovered a discrepancy when comparing the information in the home valuation report and what is in the legal papers for the property. My solicitor has advised that he must check that the lender is OK with this discrepancy and is content to go ahead. Is my lawyer’s stance correct?
Your lawyer must comply with the UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook provisions which do require that your lawyer disclose any incorrect assumptions in the lender’s valuation report and the legal papers. Should you refuse to allow your lawyer to make the appropriate notification then your lawyer will have no choice but to discontinue acting for you.

Despite weeks of looking the Title Certificate and documents to our house can not be found. The lawyers who did the conveyancing in Aughton 10 years ago are no longer around. What do I do?
These day there are duplicates made of almost everything, and your solicitor should know exactly where to find all the relevant documentation so you may buy or dispose of your house without a hitch. Where copies can’t be located, your lawyer can put in place insurance or indemnities protecting you against possible claims on the property.
Yesterday I discovered that there is a flying freehold issue on a property I put an offer in two weeks back in what should have been a quick, chain free conveyancing. Aughton is the location of the property. What do you suggest?
Flying freeholds in Aughton are rare but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Aughton you would need to get your solicitor to go through the deeds very carefully. Your mortgage company may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Aughton may determine that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold residence.
How do I use the search facility to find a conveyancing solicitor in Aughton on the panel for my bank?

Should I appoint a Aughton conveyancing solicitor who is local to the property I am purchasing? We have a good friend who can deal with the legal work however her office is approximately 350miles away.
The primary upside of using a local Aughton conveyancing firm is that you can visit the firm to sign paperwork, hand in your identification documents and apply pressure on them if necessary. Having local Aughton know how is a benefit. However it's more important to get someone that will do a good and efficient job. If if people you trust used your friend and the majority were content that should surpass using an unknown Aughton conveyancing lawyer just because they are round the corner.
