We are purchasing a house and require a conveyancing solicitor in Downton who is on the Yorkshire BS approved panel. Can you recommend a local solicitor?

My house in Downton is up for sale and I have a buyer. Does the solicitor need to be on the Clydesdale conveyancing panel in order to deal with paying off my mortgage?
Ordinarily, even if your lawyer is not on the Clydesdale conveyancing panel they can still act for you on your sale. It might be that the lender will not release the original deeds (if applicable and increasingly irrelevant) until after the mortgage is paid off. You should speak to your lawyer directly before you start the process though to ensure that there is no problem as lenders are changing their conditions fairly frequently at the moment.
Me and my partner are buying a house in Downton. I might seem paranoid but how we can trust a conveyancer? On the day of competition we will need to deposit funds into their account. What protection do we have from them run away with our monies?
Be assured that all money in a Solicitors client account is 100% safe, and even if your Solicitor ran off with it, the Law Society would reimburse you fully.
This question may be naive but I am new to the home buying as a 1st time buyer of a two bedroom flat in Downton. Do I receive the keys to the house on completion from my solicitor? If this is the case, I will use a High Street conveyancing solicitor in Downton?
There is no need to visit the lawyers office on the day of completion. Conveyancing lawyers for you will transfer the purchase money to the owner’s conveyancers, and shortly after the monies have arrived, you will be invited to receive the keys from the property Agents and move into your new home. Usually this occurs early afternoon.
I had an offer accepted on a house in Downton on 30/12/2025, valuation was booked 3 days later, all came back fine. Property lawyer instructed, so the only thing outstanding was my mortgage offer. Having made daily calls to Nationwide and chasing them on my offer, I have now been told that my offer will not be issued unless the lawyer is on the Nationwide conveyancing panel. Are Nationwide entitled to hold back the Mortgage pending the lawyer being on the approved list?
A lender would not issue a mortgage until they have details of a lawyer on their panel. It can take a few weeks for Nationwide to deal with your lawyer's application to be on the Nationwide conveyancing panel. There's no guarantee that your solicitor will be accepted.
I have todaydiscovered that Wolstenholmes have been shut down. They carried out my conveyancing in Downton for a purchase of a leasehold apartment 12 months ago. How can I establish that my home is not still registered in the name of the former proprietor?
The quickest way to see if the property is in your name, you can make a search of the land registry (£3.00). You can either do this yourself or ask a law firm to do this for you. If you are not registered you can seek help from one of a number of Downton conveyancing specialists.
