Am I correct in assuming that the fact that my conveyancer in Griffithstown is not listed on my mortgage company's conveyancing panel that there is a problem with the quality of her conveyancing?
That is most likely a wrong assumption to make. There are plenty of plausible explanations. Just recently a report by the solicitors regulator indicated that over three quarters of law firms surveyed had been removed from at least one lender panel. The most common reasons for removal are: (1) low volume of transactions (2) the lawyer is a sole practitioner (3) as part of the HSBC panel reduction (4) regulatory contact by SRA (5) accidental removal. Where you are concerned you should simply call the Griffithstown conveyancing practice and ask them why they are no longer on the approved list for your mortgage company.
I require expedited conveyancing in Griffithstown as I am faced with a deadline to complete within 4 weeks. A home loan is not required. Is it possible to escape the need for conveyancing searches to save money and time?

I am buying my first flat in Griffithstown benefiting from help to buy. The sellers would not budge the price so I negotiated £7000 of fixtures and fittings instead. The estate agent advised me not disclose to my solicitor about the side-deal as it would jeopardize my mortgage with Bank of Ireland. Is this normal?.
All lenders require a Disclosure of Incentives Form from the developer of any new build, converted or renovated property, It is available online from the Lenders’ Handbook page on the UK Finance website. UK Finance form is completed and handed to the lender's surveyor when the inspection is done.
Lenders have different policies on incentives. Some accept none at all, cash or physical, while others will accept cash incentives up to 5%.
Hard to understand why the representative of a builder would be suggesting you withold information from a solicitor when all this will be clearly visible on forms the builder has to supply to its solicitor, the buyer's solicitor and the surveyor.
Yesterday I discovered that there is a flying freehold element on a house I put an offer in a fortnight ago in what should have been a quick, no chain conveyancing. Griffithstown is the location of the property. Can you shed any light on this issue?
Flying freeholds in Griffithstown are unusual but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even though you don't necessarily need a conveyancing solicitor in Griffithstown you would need to get your solicitor to go through the deeds very carefully. Your mortgage company may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Griffithstown may decide 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 property.
