Please explain the implications if my lawyer’s firm is suspended from the UBS Conveyancing panel ahead of completing my conveyancing in Birchington?

The first thing to point out is that, this is very unlikely to happen. In most cases even where a law firm is removed off of a panel the lender would allow the completion to go ahead as the lender would appreciate the difficulties that they would place you in if you have to instruct a new solicitor days before completion. In a worst case scenario where the lender insists that you instruct a new firm then it is possible for a very good lawyer to expedite the conveyancing albeit that you may pay a significant premium for this. The analogous situation is where a buyer instructs a lawyer, exchanges contracts and the law firm is shut down by a regulator such as the SRA. Again, in this situation you can find lawyers who can troubleshoot their way to bring the conveyancing to a satisfactory conclusion - albeit at a cost.

Flying freeholds in Birchington are rare but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Birchington you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds very carefully. Your bank may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Birchington may decide 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 property.

Can you please explain what options are open to me where my Birchington conveyancing searches shows negative entries?

Normally, most problems revealed in Birchington conveyancing search results can be addressed ahead of completion or indemnity insurance can be taken. You should note that regardless of the fact that you intend on purchasing the property and may be willing to accept the search results, your mortgage lender may not, and when all said and done the decision rests with them.
