The owners have very brash vendors who has insisted on a lock out contract with a down payment 6,000. Are such contracts the norm for Birstall conveyancing transactions?
This type of arrangement is not the norm in Birstall, conveyancers will often try and steer clients away from them as they detract from the primary objective, namely conveyancing and if you end up having your deposit forfeited then the lawyer is left exposed. Secondly, there is no certainty that just because the seller has signed an exclusivity agreement they will complete the sale with you. They may breach the contract if they are offered a big enough financial inducement to do so because a wronged buyer with the benefit of a lockout agreement will still be obliged show losses as a consequence of the breach and these may not amount to the extra amount that your vendor may secure by reneging on the contract, however morally reprehensible the behaviour is.

I am purchasing a property in Birstall. A rare aspect is that the roof has a solar panel. Solicitors conducting should look into this right? Will my lender Clydesdale be concerned?
As your lender is Clydesdale your lawyer must check the formal requirements contained in Part two of UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook for Clydesdale. The CML Handbook contains minimum requirements for solar panel roof-space leases, and solicitors are required to report to Clydesdale where a lease does not comply with these provisions. The specifications relate to the installation of panels on properties countrywide and is not restricted to Birstall.
I am due to exchange contracts on my apartment. I had a double glazing fitted in October 2010, but did not receive a FENSA certificate or Building Regulation Certificate. My purchaser’s lender, Aldermore are being problematic. The Birstall solicitor who is on the Aldermore conveyancing panel is happy to accept ‘lack of building regulation’ insurance but Aldermore are requiring a building regulation certificate. Why do Aldermore have a conveyancing panel if they don't accept advice from them?
It is probably the case that Aldermore have referred the matter to their valuer. The reason why Aldermore may not want to accept indemnity insurance is because it does not give them any reassurance that the double glazing was correctly and safely installed. The indemnity insurance merely protects against enforcement action which is very unlikely anyway.
Will my lawyer be raising enquiries concerning flooding as part of the conveyancing in Birstall.
Flooding is a growing risk for solicitors conducting conveyancing in Birstall. Some people will buy a property in Birstall, completely expectant that at some time, it may suffer from flooding. However, aside from the physical destruction, where a property is at risk of flooding, it may be difficult to get a mortgage, suitable insurance cover, or sell the property. There are steps that can be taken as part of the conveyancing process to forewarn the buyer.
Lawyers are not best placed to impart advice on flood risk, but there are a various searches that may be undertaken by the purchaser or on a buyer’s behalf which should give them a better understanding of the risks in Birstall. The standard property information forms sent to a buyer’s conveyancer (where the solicitors are adopting what is known as the Conveyancing Protocol) includes a standard inquiry of the owner to discover whether the premises has ever been flooded. In the event that flooding has previously occurred and is not notified by the seller, then a buyer could commence a legal claim for losses stemming from an inaccurate answer. A buyer’s solicitors may also conduct an environmental report. This should disclose if there is any known flood risk. If so, further inquiries will need to be initiated.
