Can you point me to a directory of Coventry BS panel solicitors in Langport on the Building Society Association’s Website?

No. There is no such directory service on the CML or Building Society Association sites. Very few lenders make their panel listings viewable on the web. Where you are seeking to appoint a Langport conveyancing practitioner on the Coventry BS please make the most of our tool.

is it true that all Langport solicitors on the Lloyds conveyancing panel are overseen by the Solicitors Regulatory Authority?

As a firm of solicitors, in order to be on the Lloyds conveyancing panel they would need to be overseen by the Solicitors Regulatory Authority. The majority of lenders do allow licenced conveyancers on their panel and in such a situation the organisation would be overseen by the CLC.

I am due to exchange contracts on my house. I had a double glazing fitted in October 2006, but did not receive a FENSA certificate or Building Regulation Certificate. My buyer's lender, Principality are being problematic. The Langport solicitor who is on the Principality conveyancing panel is saying indemnity insurance will be fine but Principality are insisting on a building regulation certificate. Why do Principality have a conveyancing panel if they don't accept advice from them?

It is probably the case that Principality have referred the matter to their valuer. The reason why Principality may not want to accept indemnity insurance is because it does not give them any reassurance that the double glazing was correctly and safely installed. The indemnity insurance merely protects against enforcement action which is very unlikely anyway.

I have todayfound out that Arc property Solicitors have closed. They carried out my conveyancing in Langport for a purchase of a freehold house 9 months ago. How can I check that the property is registered correctly in the name of the former proprietor?

The easiest method to check if the property is in your name, 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 Langport conveyancing specialists.

I'm purchasing a new build house in Langport with the aid of help to buy. The sellers refused to budge the price so I negotiated 6k of additionals instead. The estate agent advised me not to tell my lawyer about the side-deal as it could affect my mortgage with the bank. Is this normal?.

All lenders require a Disclosure of Incentives Form from the developer of any new build, converted or renovated property, It is available online from the Lenders’ Handbook page on the CML website. CML form is completed and handed to the lender's surveyor when the inspection is done.

Lenders have different policies on incentives. Some accept none at all, cash or physical, while others will accept cash incentives up to 5%.

Hard to understand why the representative of a builder would be suggesting you withold information from a solicitor when all this will be clearly visible on forms the builder has to supply to its solicitor, the buyer's solicitor and the surveyor.

Due to the input of my in-laws I had a survey completed on a house in Langport before appointing solicitors. I have been advised that there is a flying freehold aspect to the property. My surveyor has said that some banks will not give a loan on a flying freehold home.

It depends who your proposed lender is. Santander has different requirements for example to Birmingham Midshires. Should you wish to telephone us we can look into this further with the appropriate bank. If you lender is happy to lend one our lawyers can assist as they are used to dealing with flying freeholds in Langport. Conveyancing may be slightly more expensive based on your lender's requirements.

Do online conveyancing companies undertake everything a local Langport solicitor does or do I still need to use a solicitor for the final stages for my conveyancing in Langport?

Where you use an online conveyancer they will undertake all the things your Langport solicitor would cover.
