I am obtaining a offer of a home loan from Nat West. I would like to instruct a Licensed Conveyancer in Park Royal. Does the Nat West Conveyancing panel include conveyancers regulated by the CLC?
The Nat West approved solicitor list is, like many other lenders, represented by the Council or Mortgage Lenders or Building Society Association, open to Licensed Conveyancers regulated by the CLC.
We were just about to sign contracts for a garden flat in Park Royal. We have hit a snag. The mortgage offer with Nottingham Building Society runs out on 23/11/2026 but the owners are insisting on a completion date of 25/11/2026. Is it possible to extend the mortgage offer?

We are selling our home in Park Royal. Will my property lawyer have to be required to be on the Coventry BS conveyancing panel in order to deal with the discharge of my mortgage?
Ordinarily, even if your lawyer is not on the Coventry BS conveyancing panel they can still act for you on your sale. It might be that the lender will not release the original deeds (if applicable and increasingly irrelevant) until after the mortgage is paid off. You should speak to your lawyer directly before you start the process though to ensure that there is no problem as lenders are changing their conditions fairly frequently currently.
I am close to exchanging contracts on the sale of our house in Park Royal and the buyers lawyers are claiming that there is a risk of it being constructed land that was not decontaminated. Any high street Park Royal conveyancer would know that there is no such problem. For the life of me I don't know why the purchasers used a web based conveyancing practice rather than a conveyancing solicitor in Park Royal. We have lived in Park Royal for 5 years we know of no issue. Is it a good idea to contact our local Authority to get clarification that there is no issue.
It would appear that you have a conveyancing lawyer currently acting for you. Are they able to advise? You need to enquire of 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 ailment)
The deeds to my property can not be found. The solicitors who dealt with the conveyancing in Park Royal 4 years ago have long since closed. What do I do?
In today’s world there are copies made of almost everything, and your lawyer will know precisely where to find all the appropriate documentation so you can purchase or dispose of your property without any difficulty. Where duplicates are not available, your solicitor can arrange cover in the form of insurance or indemnities protecting you against future claims on the premises.
In what way can the Landlord & Tenant Act 1954 impact my business offices in Park Royal and how can your lawyers assist?
The particular law that you refer to gives protection to business tenants, granting the a statutory right to make a request to court for a renewal tenancy and remain in occupation at the end of the lease term. There are certain specified grounds where a landlord can refrain from granting a lease renewal and the rules are involved. Fees are different for commercial conveyancing.
