I require conveyancing for an apartment in a fairly new development (seven years old) in Rossington. The vast majority the properties have already been occupied. Is it strictly necessary to order conveyancing searches for my conveyancing in Rossington?

Can you help - my lawyer advises that restrictive coveneant insurance is required on my purchase. What is the level of cover for Rossington conveyancing?
The right level of restrictive coveneant indemnity insurance should be dictated by who who your lender is. It would differ for example between Lloyds TSB Bank and Bank of Scotland. Conveyancing practitioners as opposed to borrowers take out such policies.
After months of negotiation I have agreed a price on an apartment in Rossington. My financial adviser recommended their conveyancers. I paid an advanced payment of £200. Not long after, the lawyer contacted me to say that they were not on the Barclays 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 Barclays 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.
Having read lots of mortgage guides, I note that they all recommend that you should get your house surveyed prior to buying it. When I asked my local Rossington solicitor - who is on the Lloyds conveyancing panel - on this she said they don't do this and I need to contract an independent surveyor. is that correct?
Lloyds will need an independent valuation of the property. Your lawyer will not arrange this. Usually Lloyds will appoint their own surveyor to do this, and you will have to pay for it. Remember that this is a valuation for mortgage purposes and not a survey. Your solicitor will not organise the survey but they may be able to put you in touch with a local one that they recommend. RICS offers a find a surveyor service (just google it) where you can search for a qualified surveyor by your Rossington postcode. As you are getting a mortgage with Lloyds, you could contact them to see if they have a list of approved surveyors in Rossington.
Have purchased a a terraced house in Rossington , how long will it take for the Land Registry to record my proprietorship? My Rossington conveyancing solicitor has been very slow, so I want to be certain that my purchase is recorded.
There is nothing unique when it comes to conveyancing in Rossington registration formalities. Rather than based on location, timescales can adjust according to the party submitting the application, whether it is in order and whether the Land registry have to notify any 3rd parties. Currently roughly three quarters of such applications are fully dealt with in less than three weeks but some can be subject to extensive delays. Registration is effected once the buyer is living at the premises so an expedited registration is not usually an essential issue but if there is a degree of urgency associated with the registration then you or your solicitor should communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for an expedited registration.
