I have been recommended a conveyancing solicitor in Irthlingborough. I I am struggling to find out whether they are accepted on the HSBC Bank approved list of lawyers. Could you or the lender confirm if they are on the panel?
You should contact your lawyer and ask them whether they are on the lender panel. Otherwise you can get in touch with HSBC Bank who may be able to confirm.
If you had a top tip for selecting a conveyancing solicitor in Irthlingborough what would it be?
We would encourage you not to base your choice on the lowest Irthlingborough conveyancing costs illustration. You really do get what you pay for when it comes to conveyancing solicitors. A cheap quote may mean that the conveyancing solicitor is handling a lot of jobs at one time and you won’t get the quality of service and the attention that you need. It is, however, wise to use a conveyancer who has a fixed fee on a no sale, no fee basis. This way, you go into the conveyancing with your eyes wide open.
We expect to receive a AIP from Nationwide this week so we know how much we could potentially offer as otherwise we only have online calculators to go by (which aren't taking into account credit checks etc). Do Nationwide recommend any Irthlingborough solicitors on the Nationwide conveyancing panel, or is it better to find our own lawyer?
You will need to appoint Irthlingborough solicitors independently although you'll need to choose one on the Nationwide conveyancing panel. The solicitor represents both you and Nationwide through the process.
I am currently in the process of buying my council flat in Irthlingborough. I have a mortgage agreed with RBS. Conveyancing is not something I have any knowledge of. Can I proceed without a solicitor easily? I think we can but we keep being told I should have one. Any advice?
It is not advisable to proceed with a house purchase without a solicitor. The council's solicitor are not acting for you. You need a solicitor for a number reasons. One of which is to verify what plans the Council have for repairs and refurbishment for the next five years. Many leaseholders have been stung for contributions of thousands of pounds. In any event, if you are getting a mortgage with RBS, you will need to appoint a solicitor on the RBS conveyancing panel.
It has been three months since my purchase conveyancing in Irthlingborough took place. I have checked the Land Registry website which shows that I paid £200,000 when infact I paid £215,000. Why the discrepancy?
The price paid figure is taken from the application to register the purchase. It is the figure included in the Transfer (the legal deed which transfers the property from one person to the other) and referred to as the 'consideration' or purchase price. You can report an error in the price paid figure using the LR online form. In most cases errors result from typos so at first glance the figure. Do report it so they can double check and advise.
I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold issue on a house I have offered on last month in what should have been a quick, no chain conveyancing. Irthlingborough is where the house is located. What do you suggest?

You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold premises.
