I am considering applying for a Nationwide mortgage for purchase of a new build (under development) in Colney Hatch with 65 per cent LTV. Is it compulsory to choose a solicitor on the conveyancing panel for Nationwide ?

There is nothing to stop you using your solicitor, but Nationwide will insist on their interests being represented by a firm on their conveyancing panel. There is greater potential for delays and confusion with an additional lawyer added to the mix, and it will undoubtedly be more expensive too.

We are aiming to move property in May. Does my conveyancing solicitor communicate with the removal company on the completion day. On a separate note, can you recommend a removal company in Colney Hatch. Conveyancing firm was found before I stumbled across this page.

On the afternoon of completion you will need to collect the keys from the selling agent however this should only occur when the vendors solicitors inform the agent that the monies to complete are in and the keys can be given over. You should tell the removal company that they can start moving you in.

I am selling my apartment. I had a double glazing fitted in May 2010, but did not receive a FENSA certificate or Building Regulation Certificate. My purchaser’s lender, Lloyds are being difficult. The Colney Hatch solicitor who is on the Lloyds conveyancing panel is recommending indemnity insurance as a solution but Lloyds are insisting on a building regulation certificate. Why do Lloyds have a conveyancing panel if they don't accept advice from them?

It is probably the case that Lloyds have referred the matter to their valuer. The reason why Lloyds 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 offer was accepted on a house in Colney Hatch on 16/1/2025, valuation was booked 3 days after, all came back fine. Solicitor instructed, so all that was missing was my mortgage offer. Having made daily calls to Skipton and chasing them on my offer, I have now been told that my offer will not be issued unless the lawyer is on the Skipton conveyancing panel. Can the lender hold off the offer?

Mortgage companies tend not to not issue a mortgage until they have details of a lawyer on their panel. It can take a few weeks for Skipton to deal with your lawyer's application to be on the Skipton conveyancing panel. There's no guarantee that your solicitor will be accepted.

I am looking for a leasehold apartment up to £245,000 and found one round the corner in Colney Hatch I like with amenity areas and transport links nearby, the downside is that it only has 51 remaining years left on the lease. There is not much else in Colney Hatch for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake buying a short lease?

Should you require a home loan the shortness of the lease will likely be an issue. Discount the price by the anticipated lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the existing proprietor has owned the property for at least twenty four months you could request that they commence the lease extension formalities and pass it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the current lease term with a zero ground rent applied. You should speak to your conveyancing lawyer regarding this.

My company is intending to take over a lease of a shop on a shopping parade. Can you recommend solicitors offering no-move-no fees for non-domestic conveyancing in Colney Hatch for under 2k?
