It has come to my attention via my mortgage broker that my Clayton lawyer is not on the lender Solicitor panel. How can I check?
Your first step should be to call your Clayton conveyancer. It is reasonable to expect your lawyer to inform you of the situation. Where they are not on the panel they could put your in touch with solicitors on the approved list of lawyers for your lender.

Forgive me if this question is silly but I am unseasoned as a 1st time buyer of a garden flat in Clayton. Do I pick up the keys to the house on the completion date from my conveyancer? If so, I will instruct a local conveyancing solicitor in Clayton?
There is no need to visit the lawyers office on the day of completion. Your solicitors will arrange to send the completion advance to the vendor’s lawyers, and once they have received this, you will be able to receive the keys from the selling Agents and move into your new home. Usually this happens early afternoon.
We are due to move house in February. Does my conveyancing solicitor communicate with the removal company on the day of completion. On a separate note, can you put forward a removal company in Clayton. Conveyancing lawyer was organised before I stumbled across this site.
On the day of completion you can pick up the house keys from the estate agent however this can only take place after the sellers solicitors inform the agent that they have the completion monies and the keys can be collected. Subsequently you should advise the removal men that you are ready to move in. As a matter of policy we do not recommend a specific removal organisation but can help you locate a conveyancing in Clayton or a firm that specialises in conveyancing in Clayton.
is it true that all Clayton conveyancing solicitors on the TSB conveyancing panel are governed by the Solicitors Regulatory Authority?
As solicitors, in order to be on the TSB conveyancing panel they would need to be overseen by the SRA. Many banks do list licenced conveyancers on their panel in which case such firms would be overseen by the CLC.
Is it necessary to take out insurance to protect me from financial exposure to chancel repairs when purchasing a residence in Clayton?

Yesterday I discovered that there is a flying freehold issue on a house I put an offer in last month in what should have been a simple, chain free conveyancing. Clayton is where the house is located. What do you suggest?
Flying freeholds in Clayton are not the norm but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Clayton you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds diligently. Your mortgage company may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Clayton 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 residence.
Your search tool is useful but there are many lawyers listed near Clayton being on the lender conveyancing panel. It would be a lot more helpful if you could recommend a specific firm on the mortgage company approved panel?
We do not recommend specific Clayton firms as the right Clayton conveyancing firm for you depends on where your priorities lie. For example you may require a local firm with Clayton knowledge or you might be looking for the low cost conveyancing. We recommend that you speak to 3 or 4 lawyers listed before you make your choice..
