We are expecting a mortgage offer soon. The lender mentioned the mortgage came with free conveyancing. Does this mean I have to appoint their panel solicitor as I would prefer to instruct a high street conveyancing solicitor in Bloomsbury?
Do check but the the likelihood is that appoint one of their panel solicitors where you want the "fee-free" offer. Contact the mortgage company to determine if they allow a cash alternative. Some lenders have previously offered a £250 cashback as an alternative in which case you could put that amount towards the cost for your conveyancing solicitor in Bloomsbury.
Will commercial conveyancing searches reveal proposed roadworks that could impact a commercial estate in Bloomsbury?
Many commercial conveyancing solicitors in Bloomsbury will order a SiteSolutions Highways report as it reduces the time that conveyancers spend in looking into accurate data on highways that impact buildings and development assets in Bloomsbury. The search result provides definitive data on the adoption status of roads, footpaths and verges, as well as the implication of traffic schemes and the rights of way surrounding a commercial development sites in Bloomsbury.
For each commercial conveyancing transaction in Bloomsbury it is critical to investigate the adoption status of roads surrounding a site.

I have justbecome aware that Stirling Law have closed. They carried out my conveyancing in Bloomsbury for a purchase of a freehold house 12 months ago. How can I check that my home is not still registered in the name of the former proprietor?
The easiest method to check if the premises is in your name, you can make a search of the land registry (£3.00). You can either do this yourself or ask a law firm to do this for you. If you are not registered you can seek help from one of a number of Bloomsbury conveyancing specialists.
How does conveyancing in Bloomsbury differ for newly converted properties?
Most buyers of new build or newly converted property in Bloomsbury approach us having been asked by the developer to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the residence is finished. This is because new home sellers in Bloomsbury usually acquire the site, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct conveyancers as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are accustomed to new build conveyancing in Bloomsbury or who has acted in the same development.

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.
