Unfortunately I am unable to travel far from Bovey Tracey. Can you please spell out why all Bovey Tracey conveyancers are not on all mortgage company panels?
Pre- 2008 most mortgage companies displayed an approach to risk which is different from today. The financial regulator in 2010 conducted a thematic review into fraud which concluded: know the property lawyers on your panel. As a result, banks have since looked to extract more data from law firms regarding their processes and the individuals who work for them and set certain criteria such as completing a minimum number of transactions. Many law practices have found themselves removed from lender panels even though they had an exemplary track record, no complaints and zero claims and didn't just 'dabble' in conveyancing. Many firms found it impossible meet the criteria of amount of transactions the mortgage companies set.
As a novice what is the most important number one tip you can give me about purchase conveyancing in Bovey Tracey?
You may not hear this from too many lawyers but conveyancing in Bovey Tracey and elsewhere in England and Wales is an adversarial experience. Put another way, when it comes to conveyancing there is an abundance of room for conflict between you and other parties involved in the legal transfer of property. E.g., the seller, selling agent and even potentially a bank. Appointing a solicitor for your conveyancing in Bovey Tracey is a critical decision as your conveyancer is your adviser, and is the ONLY person in the legal process whose responsibility is to protect your legal interests and to protect you.
We are witnessing a distinct ongoing adversarial element to conveyancing- someone must be at fault for the process being so protracted. We recommend that you should always trust your conveyancer ahead of the other parties when it comes to the legal assignment of property.

I am on look out for some leasehold conveyancing in Bovey Tracey. Before I get started I want to be sure as to the unexpired term of the lease.
Assuming the lease is recorded at the land registry - and most are in Bovey Tracey - then the leasehold title will always include the basic details of the lease, namely the date; the term; and the original parties. From a conveyancing perspective such details then enable any prospective buyer and lender to confirm that any lease they are looking at is the one relevant to that title. For any other purpose, such as confirming how long the term was granted for and calculating what is left, then the register should be sufficient on it's own.

It would be wise to find out as much as you can about the company managing the building as they can either make life much simpler or problematic.
