We are planning to move house in February. Does my conveyancing solicitor liaise with the removal company on the completion day. On a separate note, can you suggest a removal company in Oldland. Conveyancing solicitor was chosen prior to coming across this site.

On the day of completion you will need to pick up the house keys from the selling agent however this should only take place once the sellers lawyers advise the agent that the monies to complete are in and the keys can be released. After that you will need to tell the removal company that you are ready to move in. As a matter of policy we do not recommend a specific removal company but can help you locate a residential property solicitor in Oldland or a firm with expertise in conveyancing in Oldland.

I can not work out if my lender obliges me to make sure the lease term for the flat is extended prior to the completion date. I have called my Oldland building society branch on numerous occasions and was informed it wasn't a problem and they will lend. My Oldland conveyancing solicitor - who is on the mortgage company conveyancing panel- called and was told they refuse to lend in accordance with their UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook minimum lease term requirements. Who do I believe?

Provided that the lawyer is on the bank panel, they must adhere to the CML Handbook conditions for the bank. Unless your lawyer obtains specific confirmation in writing that the lender will go ahead, your lawyer has no choice but to refrain from exchanging contract and committing you to the purchase. We would suggest that you ask the mortgage company to contact your lawyer in writing confirming that they will accept the number of years remaining.

After shopping around on the internet I have found a Oldland lawyer having checked that they are on the Nationwide conveyancing panel. Does my lawyer arrange the survey of the property?

Nationwide will need an independent valuation of the property. Your lawyer will not arrange this. Usually Nationwide will appoint their own surveyor to do this, and you will have to pay for it. Remember that this is a valuation for mortgage purposes and not a survey. You may wish to consider appointing your own Oldland surveyor to carry out a survey or prepare a home buyers report on the property. It is up to you to satisfy yourself that the property is structurally sound before you buy it. If the survey or report reveals that building work is needed, you should tell your solicitor. You may wish to renegotiate with the seller.
