My Solicitor in Park Royal is not listed on the The Mortgage Works Approved Panel. Can I still use my family solicitor notwithstanding that they are excluded from the The Mortgage Works approved list?

- Carry on with your preferred Park Royal solicitors but The Mortgage Works will need to instruct a lawyer on their panel. This will inevitably rack up the overall conveyancing charges as well as cause delays.
- Choose a new practitioner to act in the purchase, obviously checking they are Convince your conveyancer to use their best endeavours to join the The Mortgage Works conveyancing panel
We are purchasing a house and the conveyancer has mentioned Chancel Repair for which the house may be obligated to contribute to because it falls into the area of such a church. He has mentioned insurance. Is this really warranted for conveyancing in Park Royal
Unless a prior purchase of the premises took place after 12 October 2013 you can expect lawyers handling conveyancing in Park Royal to remain recommending a chancel search and or insurance against a claim.
It has been three months since my purchase conveyancing in Park Royal concluded. I have checked the Land Registry website which shows that I paid £150,000 when infact I paid £160,000. Why the discrepancy?
The price paid figure is taken from the application to register the purchase. It is the figure included in the Transfer (the legal deed which transfers the asset from one person to the other) and referred to as the 'consideration' or purchase price. You can report an error in the price paid figure using the LR online form. In most cases errors result from typos so at first glance the figure. Do report it so they can double check and advise.

Last April I purchased a leasehold flat in Park Royal. Do I have any liability for service charges relating to a period prior to completion of my purchase?
In a situation where the service charge has already been demanded from the previous owner and they have not paid you would not usually be personally liable for the arrears. Strange as it may seem, your landlord may still be able to take action to forfeit the lease. A critical element of leasehold conveyancing for your conveyancer to ensure to have an up to date clear service charge receipt before completion of your purchase. If you have a mortgage this is likely to be a requirement of your lender.
If you purchase part way through an accounting year you may be liable for charges not yet demanded even if they relate to a period prior to your purchase. In such circumstances your conveyancer would normally arrange for the seller to set aside some money to cover their part of the period (usually called a service charge retention).
I have tried to negotiate informally with with my landlord to extend my lease without any joy. Can I apply to the Leasehold Valuation Tribunal? Can you recommend a Park Royal conveyancing firm to assist?
if there is a missing landlord or if there is dispute about what the lease extension should cost, under the relevant legislation it is possible to make an application to the First-tier Tribunal (Property Chamber) to assess the price.
An example of a Lease Extension decision for a Park Royal residence is 99 Connell Crescent in May 2013. the Tribunal held that the relevant sum for the purposes of the lease extension should be £72,566 to be paid by the leaseholder This case related to 1 flat. The remaining number of years on the lease was 28.42 years.
Please set out some of distinct advantages to choosing a high street solicitor in Park Royal
Home movers in Park Royal opt for a nearby high street conveyancing practitioner so that they can attend the lawyer’s offices just in case they have concerns, and to sign paperwork without using the Royal Mail.
We would say that there exists a distinct edge when using a property lawyer local to the property you are planning to purchase, due to the in-depth knowledge of the area and possible local issues - but this is moot. The majority of conveyancers conduct their communications via the internet and could be anywhere in the world.
