Can you help - my lawyer advises that lack of right of way insurance is necessary on my purchase. What is the level of cover for Chirk conveyancing?
The right level of lack of right of way indemnity insurance should be dictated by who who your lender is. It would differ for example between Santander and Norwich and Peterborough Building Society. Conveyancing practitioners as opposed to members of the public take out such insurances.
How can we tell if a Chirk conveyancing solicitor on the Leeds Building Society panel is any good?
When it comes to conveyancing in Chirk seeking recommendations is a sensible starting point. Before you go ahead, check if they offer a no sale no fee offer. Also, you often get what you pay for - a firm which quotes more, will often provide a better service than one advertising the lowest fees.

I was told three weeks ago that my mortgage has been agreed to by Barclays. Is it usual for Barclays to only issue the offer once my solicitor in Chirk is approved on their conveyancing panel? Barclays have asked my solicitor to see a copy of their PI Insurance.
A lender would not issue a mortgage until they have details of a lawyer on their panel. It can take a few weeks for Barclays to deal with your lawyer's application to be on the Barclays conveyancing panel. There's no guarantee that your solicitor will be accepted.
Should my conveyancer be raising questions concerning flooding during the conveyancing in Chirk.
Flooding is a growing risk for lawyers carrying out conveyancing in Chirk. There are those who buy a property in Chirk, fully expectant that at some time, it may suffer from flooding. However, leaving to one side the physical destruction, where a property is at risk of flooding, it may be difficult to get a mortgage, suitable building insurance, or dispose of the property. There are steps that can be taken as part of the conveyancing process to forewarn the buyer.
Solicitors are not best placed to give advice on flood risk, but there are a various checks that can be carried out by the purchaser or on a buyer’s behalf which will figure out the risks in Chirk. The standard property information forms supplied to a purchaser’s solicitor (where the solicitors are adopting what is known as the Conveyancing Protocol) contains a standard question of the owner to find out if the premises has suffered from flooding. If flooding has previously occurred which is not disclosed by the seller, then a buyer could issue a compensation claim resulting from an misleading answer. The purchaser’s solicitors should also conduct an environmental search. This should reveal whether there is any known flood risk. If so, more detailed investigations will need to be made.
