I can't travel far from Maidenbower. Please spell out why all Maidenbower property lawyers are not on all mortgage company panels?
Banks tend to impose restrictions on either the type or the number of conveyancing firms on their panel. Frequent examples of such restriction(s) being that a firm must have at least two partners. As well as restricting the structure of firm, some banks such as HSBC decided to limit the size of their panel they allow to represent them. It is worth noting that building societies have no accountability for the accuracy of advice provided by any Maidenbower property lawyer on their panel. Property fraud was the main trigger for the rationalisation of conveyancing panels a few years ago even though there are conflicting opinions about whether solicitors sat at the center of that fraud. Statistics published by HMLR indicates that thousands of conveyancing organisations only carry out one or two conveyances annually. Those supporting conveyancing panel pruning question why conveyancing firms deserve any entitlement to remain on a lender panel when clearly conveyancing is not their speciality?

four months have elapsed following my purchase conveyancing in Maidenbower completed. I have checked the Land Registry website which shows that I paid £175,000 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 premises 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 element on a property I have offered on last month in what was supposed to be a simple, chain free conveyancing. Maidenbower is the location of the property. What do you suggest?
Flying freeholds in Maidenbower are not the norm but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Maidenbower you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds diligently. Your mortgage company may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Maidenbower may determine that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold property.
