Am I correct in assuming that the fact that my conveyancer in Cannock is not identified on my bank's solicitor panel that there is a problem with the standard of her conveyancing?

It would be unwise to jump to that conclusion. There are all sorts of perfectly reasonable explanations. A recent report by the solicitors regulator indicated 76% of law firms surveyed had been removed from at least one lender panel. The top 5 reasons are as follows: (1) lack of transactions (2) the lawyer is a sole practitioner (3) as part of the HSBC panel reduction (4) regulatory contact by SRA (5) accidental removal. If you are concerned you should contact the Cannock conveyancing firm and ask them why they are no longer on the approved list for your bank.

Please help - my lawyer says that flying freehold insurance is necessary on my purchase. What is the typical level of cover needed for conveyancing in Cannock?

The appropriate level of flying freehold indemnity insurance should be dictated by who who your lender is. It would differ for example between Accord Mortgages Ltd and Leeds Building Society. Conveyancing practitioners as opposed to members of the public take out such policies.

I am selling my house. I had a double glazing fitted in June 2006, but did not receive a FENSA certificate or Building Regulation Certificate. My buyer's mortgage company, RBS are being difficult. The Cannock solicitor who is on the RBS conveyancing panel is saying indemnity insurance will be fine but RBS are requiring a building regulation certificate. Why do RBS have a conveyancing panel if they don't accept advice from them?

It is probably the case that RBS have referred the matter to their valuer. The reason why RBS may not want to accept indemnity insurance is because it does not give them any reassurance that the double glazing was correctly and safely installed. The indemnity insurance merely protects against enforcement action which is very unlikely anyway.

Just acquired a detached house in Cannock , What is the estimated time for the Land Registry to record my title? My Cannock conveyancing solicitor has been very slow, so I want to be certain the land registry aspects are addressed.

There is nothing unique about conveyancing in Cannock registration formalities. As opposed to being determined by geographic area, timeframes can vary depending on who lodges the application, whether it is in order and whether the Land registry communicate with any interested parties. At present roughly three quarters of submission are fully dealt with within 12 days but occasionally there can be extensive hold-ups. Registration occurs after the buyer has moved in to the property thus post completion formalities is not usually top priority but where there is a degree of urgency associated with the registration then you or your conveyancer can communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for an expedited registration.
