My mortgage broker says he needs my Shirebrook law firm’s panel reference for the Santander conveyancing panel. What is the best way to find this out. I have contacted my local Shirebrook office but they have not responded to me.
Have you tried calling your Shirebrook conveyancer about this?. They should have a central record lender panel numbers.

The quantity and type of Shirebrook conveyancing searches should be triggered based primarily on the premises, the location, the likelihood of any of these risks, your familiarity of the region and risks, your general appetite to risk. What is important is that you adequately understand what information the searches could provide. Then you can decide if you personally think you need that information.

I am helping my sister sell her house in Shirebrook. Does the conveyancer order the energy assessment or it is for me to see to?
Following the abolition of Home Information Packs, energy assessments was maintained a compulsory part of moving property. An EPC needs to be to hand prior to the property being placed on the market. This is not something that law firms ordinarily arrange. Where you are using a Shirebrook conveyancing lawyer they might be willing to arrange energy assessments given their relationships with reputable Shirebrook providers
When it comes to mortgage companies such as Principality, do Shirebrook conveyancing practitioners have to pay an annual charge to be on the list of approved solicitors?
We are unaware of any bank fees to register on their panel, although some do levy an administration fee to deal with the processing of the conveyancing panel submission.
At last I have had an offer on a maisonette in Shirebrook accepted, the owners do nevertheless have an associated purchase. The vendors have offered on a property, however it’s not yet agreed to, and are looking at other apartments in the pipeline. I have selected a bricks and mortar conveyancing solicitor in Shirebrook. What should be my next step? When do I get the mortgage application with Bank of Ireland started?
It is usual to have apprehensions where there is a chain as you are unlikely to want to be too out of pocket prematurely (home loan application is approx £1k, then survey, Shirebrook conveyancing search charges, etc). The first thing to do is ensure that your solicitor is on the Bank of Ireland approved list. Concerning the next phase this very much depends on the circumstances of your transaction, motivation for the property and on the state of the market. In a hot market some buyers would apply for a home loan with Bank of Ireland and arrange for the valuation and only if it comes back ok would they ask their solicitor to move forward with the conveyancing in Shirebrook.
Just had an offer accepted on a new build flat in Shirebrook. Conveyancing is a frightening process at the best of times but I have never purchased a new build flat before. What sort of enquires would be asked in new build legal work.
Here is a sample of a few leasehold new build enquiries that you should expect your new-build leasehold conveyancing in Shirebrook
-
There must be mutual enforceability of lessee’s covenants. If there are lifts in the building, please confirm that the owners of flats on the ground and basement floors will not be required to contribute towards the cost of maintenance and renewal. The Landlord must covenant to assume the management if the Management Company goes into liquidation or otherwise defaults in running the management scheme. The Lease must contain a provision on behalf of the Vendor to pay the service charges in respect of unoccupied units in order to ensure that all services can be provided. Where service of notices and proceedings can be at the property demised please confirm that this can be amended to include simultaneous services at the Lessees’ solicitors’ offices where the Lessee from time to time is not resident in the UK - such solicitors may be varied by notice in writing to the Landlord from time to time but otherwise will be as previously specified.
I have miscalculated my finances and am a few thousand pounds short a 10% deposit on my flat purchase in Shirebrook , but I am keen exchange. What can I do?
You can agree a smaller deposit. Many sellers will agree to a smaller deposit or even no deposit for a first time buyer or 100% mortgage. Be aware though that if you fail to complete you will still need to hand over a minimum of 10% of the purchase price regardless of how much deposit was agreed.
You can also agree a simultaneous exchange and completion as no deposit is required for this however neither party will be tied in until completion actually takes place and it can be risky if sellers change their mind at the last second
