Are all Rhosesmor Conveyancing Quality Solicitors on the Kent Reliance conveyancing list of approved solicitors?
It is true that some banks and building societies now utilise CQS as the starting point for Panel membership such as HSBC and Santander. The Law Society’s CQS membership however gives no guarantee to lender panel acceptance. That being said,the CML have indicated that it is likely to become a pre-requisite for firms wishing to remain on their panels.
We expect to receive a DIP from Kent Reliance this week so we can work out what to offer on a property we like as otherwise we only have online calculators to go by (which aren't taking into account credit checks etc). Do Kent Reliance recommend any Rhosesmor solicitors on the Kent Reliance conveyancing panel, or is it better to find our own lawyer?
You will need to appoint Rhosesmor solicitors independently although you'll need to choose one on the Kent Reliance conveyancing panel. The solicitor represents both you and Kent Reliance through the process.
It is not clear whether my mortgage offer obliges me to make sure the lease term for the flat is extended prior to the completion date. I have called into my local Rhosesmor bank branch on various occasions and was told it does not impact the mortgage offer and they would lend. My Rhosesmor conveyancing solicitor - who is on the bank conveyancing panel- telephoned to say that they will not lend based on their published requirements. I simply don't know who is right.
As long as the property lawyer is on the bank approved list, they must follow the CML Handbook requirements for the bank. Unless your lawyer obtains specific confirmation in writing that the bank 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 lender to contact your lawyer in writing confirming that they will accept the number of years left on the lease.

Estate agents have just been given the go-ahead to market my garden apartment in Rhosesmor. Conveyancing lawyers have not yet been instructed, however I have just received a yearly service charge invoice – should I leave it to the buyer to sort out?
The sensible thing to do is pay the service charge as normal because all rents and maintenance charges should be allotted as part of the financial calculations for completion monies, so you will be reimbursed by the purchaser for the period running from after the completion date to the subsequent invoice date. Most management companies will not acknowledge the buyer until the service charges have been paid and are up to date, so it is important for both buyer and seller for the seller to show that they are up to date. This will smooth the conveyancing process.
