If you are buying a property in Helston your solicitor will request that you place them with monies to cover the the cost of the conveyancing searches.

Can you clarify what the consequences are if my solicitor is suspended from the Skipton Solicitor panel ahead of completing my conveyancing in Helston?

First, this is very unlikely to happen. In most cases even where a law firm is removed off of a panel the lender would allow the completion to go ahead as the lender would appreciate the difficulties that they would place you in if you have to instruct a new solicitor days before completion. In a worst case scenario where the lender insists that you instruct a new firm then it is possible for a very good lawyer to expedite the conveyancing albeit that you may pay a significant premium for this. The analogous situation is where a buyer instructs a lawyer, exchanges contracts and the law firm is shut down by a regulator such as the SRA. Again, in this situation you can find lawyers who can troubleshoot their way to bring the conveyancing to a satisfactory conclusion - albeit for a fee.

Due to the input of my in-laws I had a survey completed on a property in Helston ahead of appointing conveyancers. I have been advised that there is a flying freehold element to the property. Our surveyor advised that some mortgage companies will not give a mortgage on this type of premises.

If you lender is happy to lend one our lawyers can assist as they are accustomed to dealing with flying freeholds in Helston.

I'm converting the mortgage on my current home to a BTL mortgage with Santander and I will use the rest of the raised equity towards another house. The area we are talking about is Helston. Will your conveyancers be able to act for both sets of mortgage companies and tie in the two deals?

Do use our search tool on this page to check that the conveyancers are approved by both banks. On the basis that they are your solicitor should be able to simultaneously deal with the two conveyancing matters but you should have a chat with you conveyancer and make clear your expectations and requirements.

I happen to be an executor of my recently deceased mother’s Will, with a house in Helston which will be marketed. The house has never been registered at the Land Registry and I'm advised that some estate agents will insist that it is in place before they'll move forward. What's the procedure for this?

In the circumstances that you have set out it seems sensible to apply to register in the names of the personal representative(s) as named in the probate and in their capacity as PRs. HMLR’s online guidance explains how to register for the first time and what is required re the deeds and forms. You would need to include and certified copy of the probate as well and complete the form FR1 to refer to the PRs as the applicant.
