Me and my partner are due to exchange on the purchase of a house in Rufford but as a consequence of wreckage from the recent storms I have was able negotiate reparation from the current proprietors in the sum of £2k by way of a deduction in the price. I had intended this to be dealt with as part of amending the contract yet TSB are not allowing this. Why were they approached?
The property lawyer being on a TSB conveyancing panel is obliged to disclose to TSB of any amendments to the purchase price. If you prohibit your lawyer to disclose the reduction to TSB then they would have to discontinue acting for you. In addition, TSB and you would have to appoint a new property lawyer for your conveyancing in Rufford.

I am helping my step-mother sell her house in Rufford. Will the solicitor order the EPC or it is for the owner to see to?
Following the abolition of Home Information Packs, EPC’s was maintained a compulsory element of selling a house. An energy performance certificate should be to hand in advance of the property being marketed. This is not something that solicitors ordinarily organise. Where you are instructing a Rufford conveyancing solicitor they may be willing to arrange EPC’s given their relationships with reputable Rufford providers
I happen to be the only beneficiary of my late mum's estate and I have everything in my name alone, including the house in Rufford. Conveyancing formalities meant that the Land Registry date was in August. I now wish to sell up. I understand that there is a CML 6 month 'rule', which means that my proprietorship could be regarded the same way as if I'd bought the property in August. Do I have to wait half a year to sell?
The CML handbook requires conveyancers to: "report to us immediately if the owner or registered proprietor has been registered for less than six months." Technically you might be caught by that. Some mortgage companies would take a sensible view as this obligation is primarily there to pick up on subsales or the flipping of properties.
I was told two weeks ago that my mortgage has been agreed to by UBS. Is it usual for UBS to only issue the offer once my solicitor in Rufford is approved on their conveyancing panel? UBS have asked my solicitor to see a copy of their PI Insurance.
Mortgage companies tend not to not issue an offer until they have details of a lawyer on their panel. It can take a few weeks for UBS to deal with your lawyer's application to be on the UBS conveyancing panel. There's no guarantee that your solicitor will be accepted.

The primary upside of using a high street Rufford conveyancing firm is that you can visit the firm to sign paperwork, present your ID and pester them where appropriate. Having local Rufford know how is a benefit. However it's more important to get someone that will do a good and efficient job. If other friends have used your friend and the majority were content that should surpass using an unfamiliar Rufford conveyancing lawyer just because they are local.
Our conveyancer in Rufford has identified a defect with the lease for the apartment we are purchasing in Rufford. The seller’s lawyers have suggested defective title insurance as a solution. We are content with insurance and will pay for it. Our lawyer has advised that as he is on the lender conveyancing panel he must check that the lender is happy with this solution. Are we the client or is the mortgage company?
