We expect to receive a AIP from Barclays this week so we can work out what to offer on a property we like as otherwise we are dependent on web based calculators (which aren't taking into account credit checks etc). Do Barclays recommend any Chiswick solicitors on the Barclays conveyancing panel, or is it better to find our own lawyer?
You will need to appoint Chiswick solicitors independently although you'll need to choose one on the Barclays conveyancing panel. The solicitor represents both you and Barclays through the process.
I am selling my apartment. I had a double glazing fitted in May 2006, but did not receive a FENSA certificate or Building Regulation Certificate. My purchaser’s lender, Virgin Money are being difficult. The Chiswick solicitor who is on the Virgin Money conveyancing panel is happy to accept ‘lack of building regulation’ insurance but Virgin Money are requiring a building regulation certificate. Why do Virgin Money have a conveyancing panel if they don't accept advice from them?
It is probably the case that Virgin Money have referred the matter to their valuer. The reason why Virgin Money 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.

My husband and I are first time buyers - had an offer accepted, yet the agent informed us that the vendor will only issue a contract if we appoint their preferred lawyers as they want a ‘quick sale’. We would rather use a family solicitor accustomed to conveyancing in Chiswick
It is unlikely the vendors are behind this. If they require ‘a quick sale', turning down a motivated buyer is is going to put the whole deal at risk. Bypass the agents and go straight to the owners and make sure they comprehend that (a)you are genuine buyers (b)you are excited to move forward, with mortgage lined up © you have nothing to sell (d) you intend to proceed fast (e)but you are going to appoint your preferred Chiswick conveyancing solicitors - not the ones that will give their negotiator at the agency a commission or achieve conveyancing targets demanded by senior management.
Can you offer any advice when it comes to appointing a Chiswick conveyancing firm to carry out our lease extension conveyancing?
If you are instructing a property lawyer for lease extension works (regardless if they are a Chiswick conveyancing practice) it is essential that they be familiar with the legislation and specialises in this area of conveyancing. We suggest that you make enquires with several firms including non Chiswick conveyancing practices before you instructing a firm. If the firm is ALEP accredited then so much the better. The following questions could be useful:
-
Can they put you in touch with clients in Chiswick who can give a testimonial? What are the charges for lease extension conveyancing?
I have tried to negotiate informally with with my landlord for a lease extension without any joy. Can the Leasehold Valuation Tribunal decide on such issues? Can you recommend a Chiswick conveyancing firm to act on my behalf?
Most certainly. We are happy to put you in touch with a Chiswick conveyancing firm who can help.
