The extent of Bowes Park conveyancing searches depends primarily on the property, the location, the probability of any of these risks, your familiarity of the area and risks, your overall attitude to risk. What matters is that you properly appreciate what information each search could give you. Then you can make a decision if you personally think you need that search. Should you be uncertain, ask the property lawyer to provide guidance.

The deeds to my property can not be found. The lawyers who handled the conveyancing in Bowes Park 10 years ago have long since closed. What are my next steps?
You no longer need to hold title official documentation to establish that you own the land or premises, as the Land Registry hold details of all registered land or property electronically.
I decided to have a survey done on a property in Bowes Park ahead of appointing conveyancers. I have been advised that there is a flying freehold aspect to the property. The surveyor has said that some mortgage companies will not give a loan on this type of home.
It varies from the lender to lender. Lloyds has different instructions for example to Birmingham Midshires. If you contact us we can look into this further via the relevant bank. If you lender is happy to lend one our lawyers can help as they are accustomed to dealing with flying freeholds in Bowes Park. Conveyancing can be more complicated and therefore you should check with your conveyancing solicitor in Bowes Park to see if the conveyancing costs will increase in light of this.

My husband and I are hoping to buy a three bedroom bungalowin Bowes Park with a mortgage from a mortgage company. We like our solicitor in Bowes Park however our lender says she’s not approved on their "panel". Apparently we need to choose from the our lender panel solicitors or stay with our Bowes Park solicitor and incur the extra fees for one of their panel ones to represent them. We feel as though this is unjust; is there anything we can do?
No, not really. The mortgage company home loan offered to you is subject to its terms and conditions, one of which will be that solicitors will on the mortgage company's conveyancing panel. Until recently, most banks had open panels, including most conveyancing solicitors in Bowes Park : a borrower could choose one for themselves, as long as it was on the lender's panel. The lender would then simply instruct the borrower's lawyers to act for the lender, too. You can use your lender's panel lawyers or you could borrow from another lender which does not restrict your choice. A further alternative is for your lawyer to apply to be on the conveyancing panel for your bank.
