My mortgage broker requires my Blakedown solicitor’s panel member for the Nationwide conveyancing panel. How do I find this out. I have tried my local Blakedown office but they have not responded to me.
The sensible thing to do is ask for this information from your Blakedown lawyer . Most Blakedown law firms will keep a file or database of lender panel information which would include, if applicable, their conveyancing panel details for each lender.
The owners have rather pushy sellers who has recommended a exclusivity agreement with a deposit 10k. Are such agreements recommended for Blakedown conveyancing transactions?
This form of arrangement is not the norm in Blakedown, conveyancers are not keen on them as they detract from focusing on the primary focus, namely conveyancing and if you end up having your deposit forfeited then the lawyer at best left with an upset client and at worst a litigious one. Secondly, there is no assurance that just because the vendor has signed a lock out agreement they will sell to you. They may breach the contract if they receive sufficient financial inducement to do so because an aggrieved claimant with the benefit of a exclusivity agreement will still have to show losses as a consequence of the breach and these may not equalise the financial benefit that your vendor may secure by breaching the agreement, however morally unworthy that may be.
Me and my brother purchased a 4 bedroom Victorian property in Blakedown. Conveyancing solicitor acted for me and Nationwide Building Society. I did a free Land Registry search last week and there are two entries: one for freehold, another for leasehold with the matching property. If a house is not a freehold shouldn't I have been informed?
You should review the Freehold register you have again and check the Charges Register for 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 Blakedown 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 purchasers. You can also check the situation with your conveyancing solicitor who conducted the work.
In what way can the Landlord & Tenant Act 1954 impact my commercial offices in Blakedown and how can your lawyers assist?
The particular law that you refer to affords protection to commercial tenants, granting the a statutory right to make a request to court for a renewal lease and remain in occupation when the lease comes to an end. There are limited grounds where a landlord can refuse a lease renewal and the rules are complex. Fees are different for commercial conveyancing.

In surfing the world wide web for the term conveyancing in Blakedown it brings up many property lawyersin the vicinity. With so much choice what is the best way to find the right conveyancer for purchase transaction?
The preferential way of choosing a suitable conveyancer is via personal testimonial, so enquire of colleagues and those you trust who have acquired a property in Blakedown or the reputable estate agent or financial adviser. Fees for conveyancing in Blakedown differ, so it's a good idea to secure at least four quotes from different solicitors. Make sure that you clarify that the charges are assured not to increase.
I am intending to rent out my leasehold apartment in Blakedown. Conveyancing solicitor who did the purchase is retired - so can't ask her. Is permission from the freeholder required?
Notwithstanding that your previous Blakedown conveyancing lawyer is no longer available you can review your lease to check if it allows you to sublet the property. The rule is that if the deeds are non-specific, subletting is allowed. There may be a precondition that you need to seek consent from your landlord or some other party before subletting. The net result is you not allowed to sublet in the absence of first obtaining permission. The consent must not not be unreasonably turned down. If your lease does not allow you to sublet you will need to ask your landlord if they are willing to waive this restriction.
