I am acquiring an apartment in Birkenshaw. My Solicitor is not listed on the bank conveyancing panel. Is it possible for me to continue with my Birkenshaw conveyancing solicitor notwithstanding that they are not on the lender approved list?
You will need to have a property lawyer to complete the formalities if you require a loan to purchase your property. They will carry out all the appropriate legal checks on the property, ensuring that you will be properly registered as the owner and ensure that all the required mortgage paperwork is in order. One could instruct a Birkenshaw lawyer of your choice. Nevertheless, where the solicitor selected is not on the bank conveyancing panel supplemental costs will arise as separate legal representation will be required by them. Conveyancing panel applications may be submitted, so if your conveyancer has not previously sought membership they can do so.

We are purchasing a apartment in Birkenshaw. I might seem paranoid but how we can trust a solicitor? At some point we will need to put funds into their account. What protection do we have from them run away with our money?
Be assured that all money in a Solicitors client account is 100% safe, and even if your Solicitor ran off with it, the Law Society would reimburse you fully.
This question may be naive but I am wet behind the ears as FTB of a garden flat in Birkenshaw. Do I pick up the keys to the property on completion from my conveyancer? If this is the case, I will appoint a High Street conveyancing solicitor in Birkenshaw?
There is no need to visit the lawyers office on the day of completion. Conveyancing lawyers for you will transfer the completion advance to the vendor’s solicitors, and once they have received this, you should be called to receive the keys from the property Agents and move into your new home. Usually this occurs between 1 and 3pm.
We were going to get a AIP from Aldermore this week so we know how much we could potentially offer as otherwise we are dependent on web based calculators (which aren't taking into account credit checks etc). Do Aldermore recommend any Birkenshaw solicitors on the Aldermore conveyancing panel, or is it better to go independently?
You will need to appoint Birkenshaw solicitors independently although you'll need to choose one on the Aldermore conveyancing panel. The solicitor represents both you and Aldermore through the process.
Yesterday I discovered that there is a flying freehold element on a property I put an offer in two weeks back in what was supposed to be a straight forward, chain free conveyancing. Birkenshaw is the location of the property. Can you shed any light on this issue?
Flying freeholds in Birkenshaw are not the norm but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even though you don't necessarily need a conveyancing solicitor in Birkenshaw you would need to get your solicitor to go 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 Birkenshaw 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 property.
In what way can the Landlord & Tenant Act 1954 affect my commercial property in Birkenshaw and how can you help?
The 1954 Act gives a safeguard to commercial leaseholders, granting the a statutory right to make a request to court for a renewal lease and continue in occupation when the lease comes to an end. There are limited grounds that a landlord can refrain from granting a lease renewal and the rules are complicated. We are happy to direct you to commercial conveyancing firms who use the act for protection and help with commercial conveyancing in Birkenshaw
Why can't I complete my conveyancing in Birkenshaw on a public holiday?
Because on completion the funds needs to pass between the banks of the buyer and seller's property lawyer and at present this can only occur on a business day. So you can't complete on a saturday or sunday either.
