Can you point me to a directory of Kent Reliance panel solicitors in Tibshelf on the Building Society Association’s Website?
Unfortunately not yet. There is no such tool on the CML or Building Society Association websites. A small selection of banks make their panel listings available on the web. If you are in need of a Tibshelf conveyancing practitioner on the Kent Reliance please make the most of our facility.
We have agreed to purchase a house in Tibshelf. A rare aspect is that the roof has a solar panel. Kent Reliance have issued a mortgage offer so presumably this is not a concern to them. Why is my solicitor raising questions about the panel?
Given that you are obtaining a mortgage with Kent Reliance your lawyer must check the formal requirements set out in Section 2 of UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook for Kent Reliance. The Council of Mortgage Lenders’ Handbook stipulates minimum conditions for solar panel roof-space leases, and solicitors are required to report to Kent Reliance where a lease fails to meet these provisions. The provisions relate to the installation of panels on properties countrywide and is not restricted to Tibshelf.
I am due to exchange contracts on my apartment. I had a double glazing fitted in December 2010, but did not receive a FENSA certificate or Building Regulation Certificate. My purchaser’s lender, Leeds Building Society are being pedantic. The Tibshelf solicitor who is on the Leeds Building Society conveyancing panel is happy to accept ‘lack of building regulation’ insurance but Leeds Building Society are requiring a building regulation certificate. Why do Leeds Building Society have a conveyancing panel if they don't accept advice from them?
It is probably the case that Leeds Building Society have referred the matter to their valuer. The reason why Leeds Building Society may not want to accept indemnity insurance is because it does not give them any reassurance that the double glazing was correctly and safely installed. The indemnity insurance merely protects against enforcement action which is very unlikely anyway.
A relative suggested that if I am purchasing in Tibshelf I should ask my conveyancer to execute a Neighbourhood, Planning and Local Amenity Search. What does it cover?
A search of this type is occasionally included in the estimate for your Tibshelf conveyancing searches. It is not a small document of about 40 pages, listing and setting out important information about Tibshelf around the property and the people living there. It includes an Aerial Photograph, Planning Applications, Land Use, Mobile Phone Masts, Rights of Way, the local Housing Market, Council Tax Banding, the demographics of People living in the area, the dominant type of Housing, the Average Property Price, Crime statistics, Tibshelf Education with plans and statistics, Local Amenities and other useful information about Tibshelf.
Me and my brother have a 4 bedroom Edwardian house in Tibshelf. Conveyancing lawyer represented me and Britannia. I happened to do a free search for it on the Land Registry database and I saw two entries: the first freehold, another for leasehold under the exact same address. Is it worth asking Britannia to clarify?
You need to read the Freehold register you have again and check the Charges Register as there may be mention of a lease. The best way to be sure that you are also the registered owner of the leasehold and freehold title as well is to check (£3). It is not completely unheard of in Tibshelf and other areas of the country and poses no real issues for owners other than when they remortgage they have to account for both freehold and leasehold interests when dealing with buyers. You can also check the situation with your conveyancing practitioner who completed the work.

As co-executor for the will of my uncle I am disposing of a property in Swansea but live in Tibshelf. My lawyer (approximately 200 kilometers awayhas requested that I sign a stat dec ahead of completion. Can you recommend a conveyancing lawyer in Tibshelf who can attest and place their company stamp on the document?
strictly speaking you are unlikely to need to have the documents attested by a conveyancing solicitor. Normally or notary public or solicitor will suffice regardless of whether they are Tibshelf based
My husband and I intend to purchase our first house in Tibshelf. Conveyancing lawyer already selected. The mortgage adviser pointed out that a survey is not necessary as the house is only 20 yrs old.
You would be well advised to undertake a Home Buyer's Report. As the premises was built over a decade ago the property will not benefit from a warranty, so you don't want to take a risk. Where a property of this age shows no signs of defects a Home Buyer's report may be enough. The report should highlight any apparent issues and recommend further investigation where relevant. Where there are any indications of problems seek a comprehensive structural survey.
