Yesterday I discovered that there is a flying freehold element on a house I put an offer in a fortnight ago in what was supposed to be a quick, no chain conveyancing. Tooting is the location of the property. What do you suggest?

Flying freeholds in Tooting are rare but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Tooting you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds thoroughly. Your bank may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Tooting may ascertain 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 property.

Given that I am about to part with 450k on a terraced house in Tooting I would like to have a conversation with the lawyer about myhome move in advance of appointing the firm. Is this something that you can arrange?

This is something that we recommend - we would be happy to talk to you we do not take any clients on without you first talking to the lawyer due to be conducting your conveyancing in Tooting.There is no ‘factory style conveyancing’ - each client is an important person, not a matter reference. The practices that we put you in touch with believe that the figure you are calculated and presented to you for your conveyancing in Tooting should be the figure that you are charged.

My 20yr old son is just in the process of moving house, the home loan was agreed last week in principle. After the seller agreed the offer on the flat we contacted the building society to issue the formal offer. We were disappointed to hear that mortgage companies do not accept all property lawyer, they need to be on their approved list, is this legal?

Lenders tend to restrict either the type or the number of conveyancing solicitors on their approved list of lawyers. A common example of such restriction(s) being that a firm must have two or more partners. In addition to restricting the type of firm, some have decided to limit the number of firms they use to represent them. You should note that banks have no responsibility for the quality of advice provided by any Tooting solicitor on their panel. Mortgage fraud was a key driver in the rationalisation of conveyancing panels a few years ago and whilst there are differing views about the extent of solicitor involvement in some of that fraud. Statistics from the Land Registry reveal that thousands of law firms only carry out one or two conveyances a year. Those supporting conveyancing panel cuts ask why law firms should have the right to be on a Lender panel when clearly, conveyancing is not their speciality. To put it another way; would you want a conveyancing solicitor to represent you if you were charged with a crime? Probably not.
