I am buying a house and need a conveyancing solicitor in Tenbury Wells who is on the Barclays conveyancing. Could you point me in the right direction as regards a conveyancing firm?
Our service is limited to being a directory service for firms who wish to listed as being on the approved conveyancing panel for Barclays in certain locations such as Tenbury Wells. We dont recommend any particular firm.
I am the sole recipient of my late mum's estate with all property in now in my sole name, including the house in Tenbury Wells. The Tenbury Wells property was put into my name in January. I want to move. I do know about the CML six month 'rule', meaning my property ownership could be regarded the same way as if I'd bought the property in January. Will no one buy the property for half a year?
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 may be affected by that. Some lenders would take a practical view as this obligation is principally there to pick up on the purchase and immediately sell or the wholesaling and assigning of property.
We had instructed solicitors based in Tenbury Wells on the RBS solicitor panel. They are now charging me a separate fee for dealing with the RBS mortgage. Is this a supplemental conveyancing fee set by RBS?
As unfair as it may seem, as long as it’s in their Terms of Engagement or Quote then yes your property lawyer is entitled to charge a fee for this. This fee is not set by RBS but by your Tenbury Wells lawyer. Some firms on the RBS panel will levy an ‘acting for lender’ fee but some firms include it on their overall fee.
The formalities of my purchase has taken place for my property in Tenbury Wells. Conveyancing was a necessary evil but I would like to complain about the lender. How does one go about formally complaining?
Most lenders have complaints procedures. Your first point of contact should be one of the lender’s branches or the Customer Services Department at head office. In most cases complaints to a lender are sorted out very quickly. However if you are not satisfied that the matter is not resolved you can write to Financial Ombudsman Service who will take matters further.

Forfeiture - bankruptcy or liquidation must not apply under this provision. Please supply a car parking plan. Where there is an Undertaking being granted there is the risk of forfeiture of the Headlease subject to relief if one or more of the Underlessees are willing to accept the original Head Lessee’s obligations as otherwise relief will be denied to the Underlessees. The only alternatives are the Head Lessor agreeing not to forfeit the Headlease or the Head Lessee guaranteeing to the Underlessees that it will not be in breach of the Headlease. 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.

My wife and I plan to acquire our first house in Tenbury Wells. Conveyancing practitioner has been appointed. The broker suggested that a survey is not appropriate as the property is just 17 years old.
As the bare minimum you need a Home Buyer's Report. Given the property is more than ten years old the property will not come with a warranty, so you would be well advised not to take a risk. Where a property of this age shows no signs of defects a Home Buyer's report may suffice. They will highlight any obvious issues and recommend additional investigation where relevant. If there are any indications of problems get a comprehensive structural survey.
