Can you clarify what the consequences are if my solicitor is expelled from the Nationwide Conveyancing panel ahead of completing my conveyancing in Llanfairfechan?
First, this is a very rare occurrence. 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 at a cost.
My wife and I are buying a flat in Llanfairfechan. It might be a silly question but how we can trust a conveyancer? At some point we have to deposit funds into their account. What protection do we have from them run away with our monies?
Be assured that all money in a Solicitors client account is 100% safe, and even if your Solicitor ran off with it, the Law Society would reimburse you fully.
I am assisting my sister sell her house in Llanfairfechan. Will the conveyancing solicitor order the energy performance certificate or it is for the owner to see to?
After the demise of HIPs, energy performance certificates became a mandatory component of moving house. An energy assessment must be commissioned prior to the property being marketed. It is not a task that law firms ordinarily organise. Where you are instructing a Llanfairfechan conveyancing lawyer they might be willing to arrange energy performance certificates due to their relationships with long established local energy assessors
I can not fathom if my lender obliges me to make sure the lease term for the flat is extended prior to the completion date. I have called into my local Llanfairfechan bank branch on various occasions and was told it does not impact the mortgage offer and they would lend. My Llanfairfechan conveyancing solicitor - who is on the mortgage company conveyancing panel- telephoned to say that they refuse to lend based on their published requirements. Who do I believe?
Provided that the property lawyer is on the lender approved list, she or he must comply with the Council of Mortgage Lenders’ Handbook provisions for the bank. Unless your lawyer obtains specific confirmation in writing that the mortgage company will go ahead, your lawyer has no choice but to refrain from exchanging contract and committing you to the purchase. We would suggest that you ask the bank to contact your lawyer in writing confirming that they will accept the number of years remaining.

We're first time buyers - had an offer accepted, but the estate agent told us that the owners will only go ahead if we use the agent's chosen conveyancers as they are insisting on an ‘expedited deal’. We would rather use a high street solicitor who is accustomed to conveyancing in Llanfairfechan
We suspect that the owner is not behind this demand. Should the seller desire ‘a quick sale', turning down a motivated purchaser is is going to put the whole deal at risk. Bypass the agents and go straight to the owners and explain that (a)you are motivated buyers (b)you are ready to progress, with mortgage lined up © you have nothing to sell (d) you wish to move quickly (e)however you intend to use your own,trusted Llanfairfechan conveyancing lawyers - not the ones that will provide their estate agent a referral fee or meet his conveyancing targets pre-set by head office.
