What is the difference between a licensed conveyancer and conveyancing solicitor in Market Drayton
There are many recorded licenced Conveyancers in Market Drayton and Solicitor practices in Market Drayton to choose from We would stress that the two are regulated professionals specialising in the legal aspects of the home buying process.

Forgive me if this question is silly but I am wet behind the ears as a first time purchaser of a garden flat in Market Drayton. Do I pick up the keys to the house on completion from my solicitor? If this is the case, I will find a local conveyancing solicitor in Market Drayton?
There is no need to visit the lawyers office on the day of completion. Conveyancing lawyers for you will transfer the purchase money to the vendor’s conveyancers, and shortly after the monies have arrived, you will be able to pick up the keys from the property Agents and start moving into the property. Usually this occurs between 1 and 3pm.
I have decided to exercise my right to buy my property in Market Drayton off the council. I have a mortgage agreed with Santander. Conveyancing is not something I have any knowledge of. Can I proceed without a solicitor easily? I think we can but we keep being told I should use one. Any advice?
It is not advisable to proceed with a house purchase without a solicitor. The council's solicitor are not acting for you. You need a solicitor for a number reasons. One of which is to verify what plans the Council have for repairs and refurbishment for the next five years. Many leaseholders have been stung for contributions of thousands of pounds. In any event, if you are getting a mortgage with Santander, you will need to appoint a solicitor on the Santander conveyancing panel.
I note that there are debates on Chancel Insurance on online forums. Am I compelled to have this when buying a residence in Market Drayton? or I am told that there is a law dating back centuries that means some homeowners residing in a parish church boundary may be liable to pay for maintenance towards the chancel within the church. Is this a legitimate concern for conveyancing in Market Drayton?
Unless a prior acquisition of the premises took place after 12 October 2013 you can expect lawyers delivering conveyancing in Market Drayton to continue to advocate a chancel search and or insurance against a claim.
It has been three months since my purchase conveyancing in Market Drayton concluded. I have checked the Land Registry website which shows that I paid £175,000 when infact I paid £170,000. 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 residence 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.

My son is about to join the property ladder, the home loan was agreed last week in principle. After the seller agreed the offer on the house we called the bank to go forward with his. We were very surprised to discover that mortgage companies do not accept all solicitor, they must be on their panel, is this legal?
Lenders normally restrict either the type or the number of conveyancing practices on their panel. Typical examples of such restriction(s) being that a firm must have two or more partners. In addition to restricting the type of firm, some have decided to limit the number of firms they use to represent them. You should note that lenders have no responsibility for the quality of advice provided by any Market Drayton lawyer on their panel. Mortgage fraud was a key driver in the rationalisation of conveyancing panels a few years ago and whilst there are differing views about the extent of solicitor involvement in some of that fraud. Statistics from the Land Registry reveal that thousands of law firms only carry out one or two conveyances a year. Those supporting conveyancing panel cuts ask why law firms should have the right to be on a Lender panel when clearly, conveyancing is not their speciality. To put it another way; would you want a conveyancing solicitor to represent you if you were charged with a crime? Presumably not.
