Last June we completed a house move in Rugeley. We have since encountered a number of issues with the house which we suspect were overlooked in the conveyancing searches. What action can we take? Can you clarify the type of searches that should have been carried out for conveyancing in Rugeley?

It is not clear from the question as what problems have arisen and if they are unique to conveyancing in Rugeley. Conveyancing searches and due diligence initiated during the legal transfer of property are supposed to help avoid problems. As part of the legal transfer of property, the vendor fills in a form referred to as a SPIF. answers proves to be inaccurate, you could possibly take legal action against the owner for any losses that you have suffered. The survey should have identified any problems with the structure of the property. Assuming a detailed survey was carried out and the issues were not identified, you may have a claim against the surveyor. However, if you did not have a full survey, you may be responsible for fixing any defects that have now been noted. We would always encourage buyers to take every possible step to ensure they are completely aware of the condition of a property before purchase regardless of whether they are buying in Rugeley.

I had intended to instruct a property lawyer in Rugeley for our home move. Our broker informed us that our mortgage company Clydesdale won't deal with them. Why is this not regarded as unduly restrictive?

Mortgage Companies on the whole restrict either the type or the amount of conveyancing firms on their approved list of lawyers. A common example of such restriction(s) being that a firm must not be a sole practitioner. In addition to restricting the type of firm, a few lenders have limited the amount of firms they permit to act for them. You should note that Clydesdale have no responsibility for the quality of advice provided by any member of Clydesdale Conveyancer Panel. Mortgage fraud was a primary driver in the reduction of solicitor panels since 2008 even though there are differing views regarding the extent of solicitor involvement in some of that fraud. Statistics from the Land Registry indicate that plenty of law firms, including some in or near Rugeley only execute a couple conveyances per annum.

Two weeks ago we had a mortgage agreed in principle with UBS. Rugeley conveyancing solicitors are appointed. What is the average time that one could expect to receive a mortgage offer from UBS?

There is no definitive answer here. Have UBS done the valuation? Have you informed UBS as to your lawyers' details and checked that your lawyers are on the UBS conveyancing panel? It is not unusual for a mortgage offer to take a month to come through.

My husband and I are in the process of looking at houses in Rugeley and I am now considering a potential offer. Is it sensible to have my conveyancing practitioner on ‘stand by’? I intend to finance via a mortgage with Kent Reliance.
