This question may be naive but I am wet behind the ears as FTB of a garden flat in Meltham. Do I receive the keys to the house on completion from my lawyer? If so, I will instruct a High Street conveyancing solicitor in Meltham?
There is no need to visit the lawyers office on the day of completion. Conveyancing lawyers for you will electronically transfer the completion advance to the seller's solicitors, and once they have received this, you will be invited to receive the keys from the selling 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 Meltham off the council. I have a mortgage offer with UBS. 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 have 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 UBS, you will need to appoint a solicitor on the UBS conveyancing panel.
After months of negotiation I have agreed a price on a house in Meltham. My mortgage broker suggested a lawyer. I paid an advanced payment of £200. Not long after, the lawyer called me embarrassingly acknowledging that they were not on the Nationwide conveyancing panel. Am I right in thinking that I should be due a refund?
You should be able to recover this from the law firm if they were not on the Nationwide panel. They should have asked at the outset which lender you were obtaining a mortgage with. An important lesson to readers of this site is to check that the lawyers are on the appropriate lender panel.

I’m about to sell my basement flat in Meltham. Conveyancing has not commenced, but I have just had a yearly maintenance charge demand – what should I do?
The sensible thing to do is discharge the service charge as normal as all ground rent and service charges will be allotted on completion, so you should recover the relevant percentage by the buyer for the period running from after the completion date to the subsequent invoice date. Most management companies will not acknowledge the buyer until the service charges have been paid and are up to date, so it is important for both buyer and seller for the seller to show that they are up to date. This will smooth the conveyancing process.
