Should I ditch them and instruct a web based solicitor practice promising no move no charge conveyancing in Catterick Garrison?

Generally there is a compromise along the lines that if "No Completion No Fee" is offered then the fee levels will tend to be be uplifted to offset the cases that do not go ahead.

In what way does my ID and proof of funds have anything to do with my conveyancing in Catterick Garrison? What am I being asked for?

Are all Catterick Garrison Conveyancing Quality Solicitors on the Bank of Ireland conveyancing panel?

A selection of banks and building societies now utilise the accreditation scheme as the kick off point for Panel membership such as HSBC and Santander.

Nevertheless,the Council of Mortgage Lenders have indicated that it is likely to become a pre-requisite for firms wishing to join their panels.

I am currently in the process of buying my council flat in Catterick Garrison. I have a mortgage agreed with Santander. Conveyancing is new to me. Can I proceed without a solicitor easily? I think we can but we keep being told I should use 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 am selling my house. I had a double glazing fitted in June 2007, but did not receive a FENSA certificate or Building Regulation Certificate. My purchaser’s mortgage company, Yorkshire BS are being difficult. The Catterick Garrison solicitor who is on the Yorkshire BS conveyancing panel is recommending indemnity insurance as a solution but Yorkshire BS are requiring a building regulation certificate. Why do Yorkshire BS have a conveyancing panel if they don't accept advice from them?

It is probably the case that Yorkshire BS have referred the matter to their valuer. The reason why Yorkshire BS 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.

We are close to exchanging contracts on the sale of our home in Catterick Garrison and according to the buyers it appears that there is a possibility that the property was constructed on contaminated land.

It does beg the question why the buyers used an internet conveyancing outfit as opposed to a conveyancing solicitor in Catterick Garrison. We have lived in Catterick Garrison for six years we know of no issue. Should we contact our local Authority to obtain confirmation that the buyers are looking for.

It sounds as though you may have a conveyancing solicitor currently acting for you. Are they able to advise? You should check with 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)
