I am soon to complete on the purchase of a house in Kineton but as a consequence of damage from the recent storms I have managed to agree reparation from the seller in the sum of six thousand pounds taking the form of a reduction in the price. I had intended this to be addressed as part of a side agreement but Skipton are not allowing this. Why were they involved?
Any solicitor that is on a Skipton conveyancing panel is obliged to disclose to Skipton of any amendments to the sale price. If you were to refuse your conveyancer to notify the price change to Skipton then they would have to discontinue acting for you. In addition, Skipton and you would have to appoint a new conveyancing practitioner for your conveyancing in Kineton.
The Kineton conveyancing solicitors that I appointed last week on my house acquisition in Kineton have suddenly closed. They were on acting for me because I needed a lawyer on the TSB conveyancing panel and my family Kineton lawyer was not. I gave my credit card details for them to take £195 for searches. What should be my next steps?
Assuming that you have an Estate Agent in the equation then let them know straight away so that they can let the sellers know that there may be a slight delay due to the problems encountered. Most sellers would be sympathetic and urge their lawyer to send a new set of papers to your new solicitors. You will need to appoint new lawyers that are on the TSB conveyancing panel and notify the lender. If you have paid over any money, it will hopefully be held by the SRA as money in an intervened firm's bank accounts is transferred to the SRA. Then, the SRA or the intervention agent looks at the intervened firm's accounts to work out who the money belongs to. To claim your money you will need to contact the SRA. If the SRA cannot return money you are owed from the firm's bank accounts, or if they can only return part of the money, you can apply to the Compensation Fund for a grant. Your new solicitors should be in a position to assist.

We expect to receive a DIP from RBS 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 RBS recommend any Kineton solicitors on the RBS conveyancing panel, or is it better to find our own lawyer?
You will need to appoint Kineton solicitors independently although you'll need to choose one on the RBS conveyancing panel. The solicitor represents both you and RBS through the process.
I was told three weeks ago that my mortgage has been agreed to by Virgin Money. Is it usual for Virgin Money to only issue the offer once my solicitor in Kineton is approved on their conveyancing panel? Virgin Money have asked my solicitor to see a copy of their Professional Indemnity Insurance Schedule.
A lender would not issue a mortgage until they have details of a lawyer on their panel. It can take a few weeks for Virgin Money to deal with your lawyer's application to be on the Virgin Money conveyancing panel. There's no guarantee that your solicitor will be accepted.
I am purchasing my first flat in Kineton with a loan from Aldermore. The builders would not budge the price so I negotiated 6k of fixtures and fittings instead.
