I have just been advised by my broker that my Saltdean property lawyer is not on the bank Conveyancing panel. What can I do to check?

You need to call your Saltdean lawyer directly. You lawyer should advise you of the situation. Where they are not on the panel they could put your in touch with solicitors on the approved list of lawyers for your mortgage company.

I am soon to complete on the purchase of a property in Saltdean but as a result of damage from the recent storms I have was able negotiate reparation from the owner in the sum of £2k in the form of a deduction in the price. I had intended this to be addressed as part of a side agreement but TSB will not agree to this. Why were they approached?

Your conveyancing practitioner that is on the TSB conveyancing panel is obliged to disclose to TSB of any changes to the purchase price. If you were to refuse your conveyancing practitioner to disclose the price change 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 Saltdean.

As someone unfamiliar with the Saltdean conveyancing process what is the number one tip you can impart concerning the home moving process in Saltdean

Not many law firms shout this from the rooftops but conveyancing in Saltdean and elsewhere in East Sussex is an adversarial process. Put another way, when it comes to conveyancing there is lots of opportunity for friction between you and others involved in the legal transfer of property. For example, the seller, selling agent and on occasion a bank. Choosing a law firm for your conveyancing in Saltdean is a critical decision as your conveyancer is your adviser, and is the ONLY person in the legal process whose responsibility is to act in your best interests and to protect you.

We are witnessing a worrying ongoing adversarial element to conveyancing- someone has to be at fault for the process taking so long. We recommend that you your first instinct should be to trust your solicitor above all other parties in the conveyancing process.

I am selling our property in Saltdean and the buyers lawyers are claiming that there is a risk of it being built land that was not decontaminated. Any local conveyancer would know that there is no such problem. It does beg the question why the purchasers are using a web based conveyancing firm as opposed to a conveyancing solicitor in Saltdean. Having lived in Saltdean for 4 years we know of no issue. Is it a good idea to contact our local Authority to obtain clarification that the buyers are looking for.

It sounds as though you may have a conveyancing firm currently acting for you. Are they able to advise? You must enquire of your lawyer before you do anything. It is very possible that once the local authority has been informed of a potential issue it cannot be insured against (a bit like being diagnosed with a serious illness and then taking out life insurance to cover that same ailment)
