four months have elapsed following my purchase conveyancing in Boldon Colliery completed. I have checked the Land Registry website which shows that I paid £175,000 when infact I paid £170,000. Why the discrepancy?

It is the figure included in the Transfer (the legal deed which transfers the premises from one person to the other) and referred to as the 'consideration' or purchase price. You can report an error in the price paid figure using the LR online form. In most cases errors result from typos so at first glance the figure. Do report it so they can double check and advise.
Yesterday I discovered that there is a flying freehold issue on a property I put an offer in a fortnight ago in what should have been a straight forward, chain free conveyancing. Boldon Colliery is where the house is located. Can you shed any light on this issue?

Even where you use a solicitor outside Boldon Colliery you would need to get your solicitor to go through the deeds very carefully. Your mortgage company may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy.

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.
My wife and I are acquiring a studio flat in Boldon Colliery. When we first instructed lawyer, they said that they were on all major UK lender panels. The mortgage broker contacted us yesterday to advise that they don't appear to be on the UBS approved list. Were it to be true, what should we do? Do we just find a new solicitor that is on their approved list or should we pay for dual representation, with UBS appointing their own preferred lawyer.
When buying a property with the benefit of a mortgage it is normal for the purchaser’s lawyers to also act for the mortgage company. In order to act for a bank or building society a conveyancer has to be on that lender's conveyancing panel. An application has to be made by the lawyer to the lender to become a member of the lender's panel and there are increasingly strict criteria which the lawyer has to satisfy. Some building societies now insist their panel members to be part of the Law Society’s Conveyancing Accreditation Scheme. Your property lawyer should call UBS to discover if they can apply for membership of their conveyancing panel, but if that is not viable they will instruct their own lawyers to represent them. You are not legally obliged to appoint a law firm on UBS's conveyancing panel as you are at liberty to use your preferred Boldon Colliery lawyers, in which case it will likely add costs, and it will likely delay the transaction as you are adding another lawyer into the equation.
