Unfortunately I am unable to travel far from Marshfield. Can you please clarify why all Marshfield conveyancers are not on all mortgage company panels?
Banks normally restrict either the type or volume of conveyancing firms on their approved list of lawyers. A common example of such criteria being that the practice needs to have at least two partners. As well as restricting the type of firm, some banks decided to reduce the size of their panel they permit to act for them. It is worth noting that building societies have no liability for the quality of advice provided by any Marshfield conveyancer on their panel. Increases in mortgage fraud was the main trigger for the rationalisation of conveyancing panels a few years ago notwithstanding that there are conflicting thoughts concerning whether solicitors sat at the center of that fraud. Data via HMLR reveal that thousands of conveyancing practices only transact less than three conveyances annually. Those supporting conveyancing panel pruning ask why law firms deserve any entitlement to be listed on a conveyancing panel when it is evident that conveyancing is not their speciality?

Yesterday I discovered that there is a flying freehold issue on a house I have offered on two weeks back in what was supposed to be a straight forward, chain free conveyancing. Marshfield is the location of the property. What do you suggest?
Flying freeholds in Marshfield are rare but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Marshfield you would need to get your solicitor to go through the deeds thoroughly. Your lender may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Marshfield may ascertain 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 residence.
