We chose a high street solicitor for our conveyancing in Droitwich today. Going through the Terms and Conditions I noteI am liable for charges even where the conveyance does not complete. Should I ditch them and select an on-line solicitor practice promoting no completion no cost conveyancing in Droitwich?
Generally there is a compromise along the lines that if "No Completion No Fee" is available then the conveyancing charges will tend to be be more expensive to neutralise the transactions that do not proceed. Also remember that these offerings rarely protect you from expenses for example Droitwich conveyancing search fees.
We are expecting a mortgage offer soon. The lender mentioned the home loan came with free conveyancing. Is the implication that I have to use their panel solicitor as I would much rather instruct a Droitwich based conveyancing firm?
Do check but the chances are that allocate you one of their panel solicitors if you accept the "fee-free" deal. Speak to the bank to explore if they allow a monetary alternative. It is not unheard for a lender to give a £250 cashback as a further option in which case you could put that amount towards your preferred conveyancing solicitor in Droitwich.

I recently had an offer agreed on an apartment in Droitwich. My financial adviser pressured me to appoint their solicitor. I paid an upfront payment of £175. A few days later, the solicitor called me sheepishly admitting that they were not on the Co-operative conveyancing panel. Am I right in thinking that I should be due a refund?
You should be able to recover this from the law firm if they were not on the Co-operative panel. They should have asked at the outset which lender you were obtaining a mortgage with. An important lesson to readers of this site is to check that the lawyers are on the appropriate lender panel.
I was told four weeks ago that my mortgage has been agreed to by Kent Reliance. Is it usual for Kent Reliance to only issue the offer once my solicitor in Droitwich is approved on their conveyancing panel? Kent Reliance have asked my solicitor to see a copy of their PI Insurance.
Mortgage companies tend not to not issue an offer until they have details of a lawyer on their panel. It can take a few weeks for Kent Reliance to deal with your lawyer's application to be on the Kent Reliance conveyancing panel. There's no guarantee that your solicitor will be accepted.
My wife and I purchased a terraced Victorian house in Droitwich. Conveyancing practitioner represented me and Virgin Money. I happened to do a free search for it on the Land Registry database and I saw a couple of entries: one for freehold, another for leasehold with the matching address. I thought I was buying a freehold how can I check?
You should read the Freehold register you have again and check the Charges Register as there may be mention of a lease. The best way to be sure that you are also the registered owner of the leasehold and freehold title as well is to check (£3). It is not completely unheard of in Droitwich and other locations in the country and poses no real issues for owners other than when they buy they have to account for both freehold and leasehold interests when dealing with purchasers. You can also question the situation with the conveyancing solicitor who conducted the conveyancing.
