Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Bridgnorth

My partner and I are planning to purchase a house in Bridgnorth and are in fact using a Bridgnorth conveyancing practice. Within the past 48 hours our solicitor has sent a preliminary report and documents to look through with a view to exchanging next week. Alliance & Leicester have this evening contacted us to advise us that there is now an issue as our Bridgnorth solicitor is not on their approved list of lawyers. Please explain?

Where you are buying a property requiring a mortgage it is conventional for the purchasers' lawyers to also represent the purchaser's lender. In order to act for a bank or building society a law firm has to be on that lender's conveyancing panel. An application has to be made by the law firm to the lender to become a member of the lender's panel and there are increasingly strict criteria which the firm has to satisfy and indeed some lenders now require their panel members to be part of the Law Society’s Conveyancing Accreditation Scheme. Your property lawyer should contact your bank and see if they can apply for membership of their conveyancing panel, but if that is not viable they will instruct their own solicitors to act. You don't have to instruct a firm on the lender’s conveyancing panel as you are at liberty to use your preferred Bridgnorth lawyers, in which case it will likely add costs, and it may delay matters as you are adding another lawyer into the mix.

Having spent time reading mumsnet.com for a conveyancing lawyer in Bridgnorth, many say that I should look for a CQS accredited lawyer. Can you explain what CQS is?

The Law Society's Conveyancing Quality Scheme is the recognised kitemark for legal experts in the legal transfer of properties, trusted by some of the UK's major mortgage companies. Four years ago the Conveyancing Quality Scheme was officially recognised by the Legal Ombudsman. CQS is not a scheme offered by the Society for Licensed Conveyancers. Bridgnorth is one of the many areas in England and Wales where there are Accredited lawyers.

We are selling our home in Bridgnorth and according to the buyers it appears that there is a risk of it being built on contaminated land. A high street Bridgnorth lawyer would know that there is no such problem. For the life of me I don't know why the buyers instructed a national conveyancing firm as opposed to a conveyancing solicitor in Bridgnorth. We have lived in Bridgnorth for many years we know of no issue. Do we get in touch with our local Authority to seek clarification that the buyers are looking for.

It sounds as though you may have a conveyancing lawyer currently acting for you. Are they able to advise? You must enquire of your lawyer before you do anything. It is very possible that once the local authority has been informed of a potential issue it cannot be insured against (a bit like being diagnosed with a serious illness and then taking out life insurance to cover that same illness)

The deeds to my home are lost. The solicitors who handled the conveyancing in Bridgnorth 4 years ago are no longer around. What are my next steps?

These day there are copies made of almost everything, and your conveyancer will be aware precisely where to find all the relevant documentation so you may buy or sell your house without a hitch. If duplicates are not available, your conveyancer can arrange cover in the form of insurance or indemnities against possible claims on the property.

I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold element on a house I have offered on last month in what was supposed to be a straight forward, no chain conveyancing. Bridgnorth is the location of the property. What do you suggest?

Flying freeholds in Bridgnorth are rare but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Bridgnorth you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds very carefully. Your bank may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Bridgnorth may ascertain that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. 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.
