we are a couple who intend to purchase a newly converted apartment in Oxshott with a homeloan from TSB.We like our Oxshott conveyancing lawyer but TSB advised that he's not on their approved list of member firms. we are left little option but to use a TSB panel firm or keep our local solicitor and pay for a TSB panel lawyer to represent them. This seems very unfair; is there anything we can do?
Unfortunately,no. The loan issued to you contains various provisions, a common one being that lawyers needs to be on the TSB approved list. in the past, most lenders had large numbers of solicitors on their panels: a borrower could choose one for themselves, as long as it was on the lender's panel. The lender would then simply instruct the borrower's lawyers to act for the lender, too. You can use your lender's panel lawyers or you could borrow from another lender which does not restrict your choice. Another option that might be available is for your lawyer to apply to be on the conveyancing panel for TSB

We are planning to move home in December. Does my conveyancing solicitor call the removal company on the completion day. As an aside, can you suggest a removal company in Oxshott. Conveyancing lawyer was organised before I stumbled across this site.
On the day of completion you can pick up the house keys from the selling agent but this should only occur when the vendors conveyancers advise the agent that the monies to complete are in and the keys can be released. Subsequently you can inform the removal company that you are ready to move in. As a matter of policy we do not suggest a specific removal organisation but can help you locate a residential property solicitor in Oxshott or a firm that specialises in conveyancing in Oxshott.

We are close to exchanging contracts on the sale of our property in Oxshott and the buyers lawyers are claiming that there is a risk of it being constructed land that was not decontaminated. A local conveyancer would know that there is no such problem. It does beg the question why the buyers instructed a national conveyancing firm rather than a conveyancing solicitor in Oxshott. We have lived in Oxshott for three years we know of no issue. Do we get in touch with our local Authority to seek confirmation that the buyers are looking for.
It sounds as though you may have a conveyancing lawyer 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 health insurance to cover that same ailment)
I have been on the look out for a flat up to £245,000 and found one round the corner in Oxshott I like with a park and railway links nearby, however it only has 61 remaining years left on the lease. There is not much else in Oxshott suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error buying a lease with such few years left?
If you require a home loan the remaining unexpired lease term may be a potential deal breaker. Discount the offer by the expected lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the current proprietor has owned the property for at least 2 years you may request that they commence the lease extension formalities and pass it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the current lease and have £0 ground rent by law. You should speak to your conveyancing solicitor about this.
