Why do I have to pay up front when it comes to conveyancing in Lunt?
Where you are retaining lawyers for conveyancing in Lunt your solicitor will ask you put them with monies to cover the search fees. Ordinarily this is requested to cover the fees of the conveyancing searches. If any deposit is as part of the sale price then this should be asked for shortly prior to exchange of contracts. Any further balance that is due should be transferred shortly before completion.
Is there a list of Bank of Ireland panel solicitors in Lunt on the UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook Website?

We were going to get a OIP from Principality this week so we can work out what to offer on a property we like as otherwise we only have online calculators to go by (which aren't taking into account credit checks etc). Do Principality recommend any Lunt solicitors on the Principality conveyancing panel, or is it better to go independently?
You will need to appoint Lunt solicitors independently although you'll need to choose one on the Principality conveyancing panel. The solicitor represents both you and Principality through the process.
I'm at the point of looking at apartments in Lunt and I am now considering a potential offer. Should I already have a conveyancer in place at this stage? I will be getting a mortgage with Bank of Ireland.
You should start requesting conveyancing estimates from solicitors ASAP. Once you decide who you want to use and once your offer is accepted you can instruct them to work for you and forward their contact information on to the selling agent. As you are seeking a mortgage with Bank of Ireland, make sure you remember to check that your lawyer is on the Bank of Ireland conveyancing panel.
Are there restrictive covenants that are commonly identified during conveyancing in Lunt?
Restrictive covenants can be picked up when reviewing land registry title as part of the process of conveyancing in Lunt.

I am looking for a ground for flat up to £195,000 and found one close by in Lunt I like with a park and railway links in the vicinity, the downside is that it only has 61 years unexpired on the lease. There is not much else in Lunt in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error purchasing a short lease?
If you require a home loan that many years will be a potential deal breaker. Discount the price by the anticipated lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the current owner has owned the premises for at least 2 years you may ask them to commence the lease extension formalities and pass it to you. You can add 90 years to the current lease with a zero ground rent applied. You should consult your conveyancing solicitor regarding this matter.

I am 3 weeks into a residential purchase having been referred to a firm by the local agent to do our conveyancing in Lunt. I am am extremely frustrated with the level of service. Could you you assist me in finding new conveyancers?
A conveyancer would need to be really poor to suggest replacing them. Has the mortgage offer been generated? If so you will need to inform them of the new contact details and have the mortgage documents are re-issued. The solicitor ideally should be on the lenders approved list to avoid added costs and delays. So that should be your first question of the new lawyers.
