I have been referred to a conveyancing solicitor in North Ockendon. I I would like to check if they are on the Bank of Ireland approved list of lawyers. Could you help?
The first thing to do is e-mail the lawyer and ask them whether they are on the lender panel. Otherwise you should get in touch with Bank of Ireland who may be able to confirm.
I am aiming to move home in October. Should my conveyancing solicitor call the removal company on the day of completion. Incidentally, can you put forward a removal company in North Ockendon. Conveyancing solicitor was organised prior to coming across this site.
On the day of completion you will need to collect the house keys from your estate agent but this should only be done after the sellers solicitors advise the agent that they acknowledge receipt of the completion payment and the keys can be passed over. You should advise the removal men that they can start moving you in. We are not in a position to recommend a specific removal organisation but can help you choose a conveyancing in North Ockendon or a lawyer with expertise in conveyancing in North Ockendon.
Is it the case that all North Ockendon solicitor firms on the Clydesdale conveyancing panel are governed by the SRA?
As a firm of solicitors, in order to be on the Clydesdale approved list of solicitors they would need to be regulated by the Solicitors Regulatory Authority. Many lenders do permit licenced conveyancers on their panel in which case such practice would be regulated by the Council of Licensed Conveyancers.
I recently had an offer accepted on an apartment in North Ockendon. My financial adviser suggested a property lawyer. I paid an advanced payment of £150. Shortly after, the property lawyer contacted me embarrassingly acknowledging that they were not on the UBS 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 UBS 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.
What can a local search tell me about the property my wife and I purchasing in North Ockendon?

I have a 4 bedroom Georgian property in North Ockendon. Conveyancing solicitor acted for me and Nationwide Building Society. I happened to do a free search for it on the Land Registry database and there are a couple of entries: one for freehold, the second leasehold with the exact same address. If a house is not a freehold shouldn't I have been informed?
You need to read the Freehold register you have again and check the Charges Register for mention of a lease. The best way to be sure that you are also the registered owner of the leasehold and freehold title as well is to check (£3). It is not completely unheard of in North Ockendon and other locations in the country and poses no real issues for owners other than when they buy they have to account for both freehold and leasehold interests when dealing with purchasers. You can also check the situation with your conveyancing solicitor who conducted the purchase.
