I hired a Nottinghamshire based solicitor for our conveyancing in Nottinghamshire today. After carefully reading the Terms it is apparent thatwe are responsible for costs even where the conveyance does not complete. Should I ditch them and use a web based conveyancing brokerage promising no-sale-no-fee conveyancing in Nottinghamshire?
It is usually ‘give and take’ in that if "No Completion No Fee" is offered then the conveyancing charges will tend to be be more expensive to counteract those conveyances that abort. Dont forget that such deals tend not to cover outlay for instance Nottinghamshire conveyancing search costs.
In what way does my ID and proof of funds have anything to do with my conveyancing in Nottinghamshire? Why is this being asked of me?
It is indeed that case that these requests have nothing to do with conveyancing in Nottinghamshire. However these days you can not complete any conveyancing process in the absence handing over evidence of your identity. Ordinarily this takes the form of a either your passport or driving licence as well as a council tax bill. Please note that if you are supplying your driving licence as evidence of ID it needs to be both the paper element as well as the photo card part, one is not satisfactory in the absence of the other.
Verification of the origin of money is necessary under Money Laundering Regulations. Please do not be offended when when this is requested of you as your conveyancer must have this information on record. Your Nottinghamshire conveyancing solicitor will require evidence of proof of funds prior to accepting any funds from you into their client account and they may also ask further questions regarding the origin of monies.
I am looking to buy a flat and need a conveyancing solicitor in Nottinghamshire who is on the Coventry Building Society conveyancing. Can you recommend a local conveyancing firm?

I am helping my niece sell her flat in Nottinghamshire. Does the conveyancer order the energy performance certificate or should I organise this?
After the demise of HIPs, energy performance certificates was maintained a compulsory element of moving property. An energy performance certificate should be to hand before the property is advertised. It is not as aspect of the sale process that solicitors normally arrange. If you are using a Nottinghamshire conveyancing practitioner they may be willing to arrange EPC’s due to their relationships with reputable local providers
My solicitor has informed me that lack of right of way insurance is necessary on my purchase. What is the typical level of cover needed for conveyancing in Nottinghamshire?
The appropriate level of lack of right of way indemnity insurance should be dictated by who your lender. It would differ for example between Nationwide Building Society and Coventry Building Society. Conveyancing solicitors as opposed to members of the public take out such insurances.
Is it the case that all Nottinghamshire solicitor practices on the Yorkshire BS conveyancing panel are regulated by the Solicitors Regulatory Authority?
As a firm of solicitors, in order to be on the Yorkshire BS conveyancing panel they would need to be overseen by the SRA. Many mortgage companies do list licenced conveyancers on their panel and in that case the practice would be overseen by the CLC.
We are close to exchanging contracts on the sale of our house in Nottinghamshire and the buyers lawyers are claiming that there is a possibility that the property was constructed on contaminated land. Any local lawyer would know this is not the case. For the life of me I don't know why the buyers used a factory type conveyancing firm as opposed to a conveyancing solicitor in Nottinghamshire. Having lived in Nottinghamshire for 4 years we know that this is a non issue. Is it a good idea to contact our local Authority to obtain confirmation that the buyers are looking for.
It would appear that you have a conveyancing solicitor already. What do they say? You must check with your lawyer before you do anything. It is very possible that once the local authority has been informed of a potential issue it cannot be insured against (a bit like being diagnosed with a serious illness and then taking out life insurance to cover that same illness)
