My wife and I are purchasing a 2 bedroom apartment in Tickton with a mortgage. We like our Tickton lawyer, but the lender advise he's not on their "panel". We have to appoint one of the mortgage company panel firms or continue with our Tickton conveyancing practitioner as well as pay for one of their panel firms to represent them. We regard this is inequitable; can we not demand that the bank use our Tickton property lawyer ?
No, not really. Your mortgage offer is subject to its terms and conditions, one of which will be that lawyers will on the lender’s conveyancing panel. Until recently, most lenders had large numbers of law firms on their panels: a borrower could choose one for themselves, as long as it was on the lender's panel. The lender would then simply instruct the borrower's lawyers to act for the lender, too. You can use your lender's panel lawyers or you could borrow from another lender which does not restrict your choice. A further alternative is for your Tickton conveyancing lawyer to apply to be on the conveyancing panel.
Me and my wife are acquiring our first house. Our property lawyer has messagedto check if we would like to purchase additional conveyancing searches. We are really unsure what's necessary for conveyancing in Tickton
The extent of Tickton conveyancing searches depends entirely on the property, the location, the likelihood of any of these risks, your knowledge of the area and risks, your general approach to risk. What matters is that you properly understand what information the searches could provide. You may then make a decision if you consider that you need that information. Where you are in doubt, ask the conveyancer to offer guidance.
We are planning to move house in April. Should my conveyancing solicitor liaise with the removal company on the completion day. On a separate note, can you put forward a removal company in Tickton. Conveyancing lawyer was organised before I stumbled across this site.
On the day of completion you can collect the keys from the selling agent however this should only be done once the previous owners lawyers advise the agent that they acknowledge receipt of the completion payment and the keys can be handed over. After that you should tell the removal men that they can start moving you in. As a matter of policy we do not recommend a particular removal organisation but can assist you in finding a residential property solicitor in Tickton or a solicitor with expertise in conveyancing in Tickton.
Is there a list of TSB panel conveyancers in Tickton on the UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook Website?
Unfortunately not yet. There is no such facility on the CML or Building Society Association websites. Very few lenders make their panel listings viewable over the internet. Where you are looking for a Tickton property lawyer on the TSB please make the most of our tool.
About to purchase flat in Tickton. I have received an online quote from a licenced conveyancer, which states: "There will be no charge for dealing with the Building Society if you are obtaining a mortgage". I take this to mean that there will be no additional fee if the solicitor is on the Nottingham 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 Tickton property lawyer is on the Nottingham conveyancing panel.

Yesterday I discovered that there is a flying freehold issue on a property I have offered on a fortnight ago in what was supposed to be a quick, no chain conveyancing. Tickton is the location of the property. Can you shed any light on this issue?
Flying freeholds in Tickton are not the norm but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even though you don't necessarily need a conveyancing solicitor in Tickton you would need to get your solicitor to go through the deeds diligently. Your mortgage company may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Tickton may decide that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold premises.
My father-in-law has encouraged me to instruct his conveyancing solicitors in Tickton. Should I choose my own solicitor?
Much as we are happy to recommend a Tickton conveyancing lawyer the best way to select a conveyancing practitioner is to seek guidance from friends or relatives who have experience in using the solicitor you're contemplating using.
