Unfortunately both you and your lawyer have little choice here. As you are obtaining a home loan with a mortgage company your solicitor has to comply with their conditions as set out in their version of the CML Conveyancing Handbook. Your conveyancer would have previously signed the Terms and Conditions of your lender’s conveyancing panel appointment which obliges them to follow the CML Handbook provisions . Even if you were a cash buyer you would be ill advised not to carry out Hurst Green conveyancing searches.

Just bought a terraced house in Hurst Green , how long should it take for the Land Registry to record my proprietorship? My Hurst Green conveyancing solicitor has been very slow, so I want to check that my ownership is recorded.
As far as conveyancing in Hurst Green registration is no quicker or slower than the rest of England and Wales. Rather than based on location, timeframes can differ depending on who lodges the application, whether there are errors and whether the Land registry must send notices to any 3rd persons or bodies. As of today in the region of three quarters of such applications are fully dealt with within 12 days but occasionally there can be extensive delays. Registration takes place once the buyer has moved in to the property thus 'speed' is not typically top priority yet if it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your solicitor could communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for an expedited registration.

I've recently bought a leasehold house in Hurst Green. Do I have any liability for service charges for periods before completion of my purchase?
In a situation where the service charge has already been demanded from the previous owner and they have not paid you would not usually be personally liable for the arrears. Strange as it may seem, your landlord may still be able to take action to forfeit the lease. A critical element of leasehold conveyancing for your conveyancer to ensure to have an up to date clear service charge receipt before completion of your purchase. If you have a mortgage this is likely to be a requirement of your lender.
If you purchase part way through an accounting year you may be liable for charges not yet demanded even if they relate to a period prior to your purchase. In such circumstances your conveyancer would normally arrange for the seller to set aside some money to cover their part of the period (usually called a service charge retention).

You should not use the figures in a Notice of Claim or as an informal offer.
