Can you clarify what the consequences are if my solicitor is expelled from the Nottingham Solicitor panel ahead of completing my conveyancing in Caerwys?
The first thing to point out is that, this is very unlikely to happen. In most cases even where a law firm is removed off of a panel the lender would allow the completion to go ahead as the lender would appreciate the difficulties that they would place you in if you have to instruct a new solicitor days before completion. In a worst case scenario where the lender insists that you instruct a new firm then it is possible for a very good lawyer to expedite the conveyancing albeit that you may pay a significant premium for this. The analogous situation is where a buyer instructs a lawyer, exchanges contracts and the law firm is shut down by a regulator such as the SRA. Again, in this situation you can find lawyers who can troubleshoot their way to bring the conveyancing to a satisfactory conclusion - albeit for a fee.
I am due to move home in November. Does my conveyancing solicitor call the removal company on the day of completion. On a separate note, can you recommend a removal company in Caerwys. Conveyancing lawyer was chosen before I stumbled across this site.
On the afternoon of completion you can pick up the house keys from your estate agent but this can only take place after the previous owners lawyers advise the agent that they acknowledge receipt of the completion payment and the keys can be passed over. After that you can inform the removal men that you are ready to move in. We are not in a position to recommend a particular removal organisation but can help you locate a conveyancing in Caerwys or a solicitor with expertise in conveyancing in Caerwys.
I have decided to exercise my right to buy my property in Caerwys off the council. I have a mortgage offer with Santander. Conveyancing is not something I have any knowledge of. Can I proceed without a solicitor easily? I think we can but we keep being told I should have one. Any advice?
It is not advisable to proceed with a house purchase without a solicitor. The council's solicitor are not acting for you. You need a solicitor for a number reasons. One of which is to verify what plans the Council have for repairs and refurbishment for the next five years. Many leaseholders have been stung for contributions of thousands of pounds. In any event, if you are getting a mortgage with Santander, you will need to appoint a solicitor on the Santander conveyancing panel.
I recently had an offer accepted on a house in Caerwys. My mortgage broker suggested a conveyancing practitioner. I paid an on account payment of £175. Not long after, the conveyancer called me to say that they were not on the UBS conveyancing panel. Am I right in thinking that I should be due a refund?
You should be able to recover this from the law firm if they were not on the UBS panel. They should have asked at the outset which lender you were obtaining a mortgage with. An important lesson to readers of this site is to check that the lawyers are on the appropriate lender panel.
I need some quick conveyancing in Caerwys as I am under pressure to complete within one month. Luckily I do not need a mortgage. Is it possible to decline from having conveyancing searches to save fees and time?

I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold issue on a house I have offered on a fortnight ago in what should have been a simple, chain free conveyancing. Caerwys is the location of the property. What do you suggest?
Flying freeholds in Caerwys are rare but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Caerwys you would need to get your solicitor to go through the deeds diligently. Your bank may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Caerwys 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 premises.
