I can't travel far from Shoeburyness. Is there a reason why all Shoeburyness property lawyers are not on all lender panels?
Lenders ordinarily impose restrictions on either the type or the number of conveyancing firms on their approved list of lawyers. A common example of such criteria being that a practice must have two or more partners. In addition to restricting the structure of firm, some building societies decided to restrict the size of their panel they permit to act for them. It is worth noting that lenders have no responsibility for the accuracy of advice given by any Shoeburyness property lawyer on their panel. Property fraud was a key driver in the culling of conveyancing panels from 2008 notwithstanding that there are contrary views concerning the extent of solicitor involvement in some of that fraud. Statistics from HMLR reveal that thousands of law organisations only transact less than three conveyances annually. Those advocating conveyancing panel cuts ask why law firms should have claim to remain on a lender panel when it is evident that property law is not their primary expertise?

Is there a list of Kent Reliance panel conveyancers in Shoeburyness on the UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook Website?
Unfortunately not yet. There is no such tool on the CML or Building Society Association websites. Very few mortgage companies make their panel listings open the public over the internet. If you are in need of a Shoeburyness lawyer on the Kent Reliance please make the most of our tool.
It is unclear whether my mortgage offer obliges me to make sure the lease term for the flat is extended prior to the completion date. I have telephoned my Shoeburyness building society branch on numerous occasions and was told they are content with the situation and they will lend. My Shoeburyness conveyancing solicitor - who is on the lender conveyancing panel- called to say that they refuse to lend based on their specific requirements. I simply don't know who is right.
Your conveyancer has to follow the CML Handbook Part 2 provisions for your bank. Unless your lawyer obtains specific confirmation in writing that the lender will go ahead, your lawyer has no choice but to refrain from exchanging contract and committing you to the purchase. We would suggest that you ask the bank to contact your lawyer in writing confirming that they will accept the number of years left on the lease.
Planning on purchasing a flat in Shoeburyness. I have received an online quote from a licenced conveyancer, which states: "There will be no charge for dealing with the Lender if you are obtaining a mortgage". I take this to mean that there will be no additional fee if the solicitor is on the Aldermore conveyancing panel. I wanted to make sure it means there will be no additional fees for dealing with the mortgage.
They are simply saying that the cost for acting for the lender is included in the fee being quoted. It is worth you checking that the Shoeburyness property lawyer is on the Aldermore conveyancing panel.
I got the keys to my home on 1 June and my personal details is yet to be registered. Should I be concerned? My conveyancing solicitor in Shoeburyness advises it will be registered in less than a month. Are titles in Shoeburyness particularly slow to register?
There is nothing unique when it comes to conveyancing in Shoeburyness registration formalities. Rather than based on location, timescales can vary subject to who lodges the application, whether there are errors and if the Land registry communicate with any 3rd parties. At present approximately 80% of submission are fully addressed in less than three weeks but some can be subject to longer delays. Historically registration takes place after the buyer has moved in to the premises therefore post completion formalities is not usually an essential issue but where there is a degree of urgency associated with the registration then you or your solicitor must communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for the application to be prioritised.

No doubt the best way to find a conveyancing practitioner is to have referrals from friends or family who have previously instructed the firm you're are thinking of instructing.
