My bid for a property was accepted at auction in Pembrokeshire. Conveyancing is required. What is next?
Given that you are now legally bound yourself to purchase you should hire the services of a conveyancing practitioner as a matter of priority as you now have a fast approaching a fixed date to complete the property. All auction property will have a bespoke auction pack. This will likely include evidence of title and search results.

After weeks of negotiation I have agreed a price on an apartment in Pembrokeshire. My financial adviser pressured me to appoint their conveyancing practitioner. I paid an upfront payment of £225. A few days later, the solicitor contacted me sheepishly admitting that they were not on the Nottingham conveyancing panel. Am I right in thinking that I should be due a refund?
You should be able to recover this from the law firm if they were not on the Nottingham panel. They should have asked at the outset which lender you were obtaining a mortgage with. An important lesson to readers of this site is to check that the lawyers are on the appropriate lender panel.
I am selling my flat. I had a double glazing fitted in May 2008, but did not receive a FENSA certificate or Building Regulation Certificate. My buyer's lender, Lloyds are being pedantic. The Pembrokeshire solicitor who is on the Lloyds conveyancing panel is recommending indemnity insurance as a solution but Lloyds are insisting on a building regulation certificate. Why do Lloyds have a conveyancing panel if they don't accept advice from them?
It is probably the case that Lloyds have referred the matter to their valuer. The reason why Lloyds may not want to accept indemnity insurance is because it does not give them any reassurance that the double glazing was correctly and safely installed. The indemnity insurance merely protects against enforcement action which is very unlikely anyway.
