I can't travel far from Bromham. Is there a reason why all Bromham property lawyers are not on all lender panels?
Pre- 2008 most mortgage companies exhibited an approach to risk which differs from the current day. The Financial Services Authority in 2010 instigated a thematic review into property fraud which in summary warned lenders: know the property lawyers on your panel. Consequently, lenders have subsequently soughtmore information from law firms regarding their operations and the staff employed by them and set certain criteria such as completing a minimum volume of transactions. Hundreds of law practices have been excluded from lender panels even though they had 100% healthy disciplinary record, no complaints and zero claims and didn't just 'dabble' in conveyancing. Many firms were never going to satisfy the minimum volume of transactions the lenders insisted on.

I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold issue on a house I have offered on last month in what was supposed to be a straight forward, no chain conveyancing. Bromham is the location of the property. What do you suggest?
Flying freeholds in Bromham are rare but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Bromham 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. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Bromham may determine 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 residence.
