I have a decision in principle. The bank mentioned the home loan came with free conveyancing. Does this mean I have to instruct their panel lawyer as I would much rather use a Guiseley based conveyancing firm?
Do check but the chances are that appoint one of their panel conveyancers if you want the "fee-free" incentive. Call the mortgage company and determine if they allow a cash alternative. Some mortgage companies have previously offered a £250 cashback as a further option in which case you could put that amount towards your preferred conveyancing solicitor in Guiseley.
How can we know in advance if a Guiseley conveyancing solicitor on the Principality panel is any good?
When it comes to conveyancing in Guiseley getting recommendations is a sensible starting point. Before you go ahead, check if they offer a no sale no fee offer. Also, you often get what you pay for - a firm which quotes more, will often provide a better service than one which is cheap as chips. We would always recommend that you speak with the solicitor carrying out your conveyancing.
I am expecting a OIP from TSB this week so we can work out what to offer on a property we like as otherwise we are dependent on web based calculators (which aren't taking into account credit checks etc). Do TSB recommend any Guiseley solicitors on the TSB conveyancing panel, or is it better to go independently?
You will need to appoint Guiseley solicitors independently although you'll need to choose one on the TSB conveyancing panel. The solicitor represents both you and TSB through the process.
I was told two weeks ago that my mortgage has been agreed to by Co-operative. Is it usual for Co-operative to only issue the offer once my solicitor in Guiseley is approved on their conveyancing panel? Co-operative have asked my solicitor to see a copy of their PI Insurance.
A lender would not issue a mortgage until they have details of a lawyer on their panel. It can take a few weeks for Co-operative to deal with your lawyer's application to be on the Co-operative conveyancing panel. There's no guarantee that your solicitor will be accepted.
I have justbeen informed that Arc property Solicitors have been shut down. They carried out my conveyancing in Guiseley for a purchase of a leasehold flat 18 months ago. How can I be sure that the property is not still registered in the name of the former proprietor?
The quickest way to check if the premises is registered to you, you can carry out 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 Guiseley conveyancing specialists.

I'm remortgaging my primary home to a buy to let loan with Barclays and intend to use the remaining equity as a deposit on a second house. The neighborhood we are interested in is Guiseley. Will your conveyancers be able to act for both sets of banks and tie in the conveyances?

I need to switch lawyers as my Guiseley lawyer is not on the mortgage company's panel of conveyancing solicitors. Is it advisable to appoint a new law firm?
If you haven't yet appointed a solicitor to start work and at this stage simply received quotes, you're perfectly free to choose a different solicitor to carry out your work for you. The best way is to get recommendations from friends or family who have actually used the solicitor or conveyancer in Guiseley that you're thinking of instructing.
