Unfortunately I am unable to travel far from West Drayton. Is there a reason why all West Drayton lawyers aren't included on all bank panels?
Banks ordinarily impose restrictions on either the type or volume of conveyancing practices on their approved list of lawyers. Typical examples of such restriction(s) being that a practice is required to have at least two partners. As well as restricting the structure of firm, some banks for instance HSBC decided to limit the number of practices they use to represent them. You should note that lenders have no liability for the standard of service provided by any West Drayton conveyancing practitioner on their panel. Increases in mortgage fraud was the primary trigger for the reduction of conveyancing panels from 2008 even though there are conflicting views concerning whether solicitors sat at the center of that fraud. Data published by HMLR reveal that thousands of conveyancing firms only transact one or two conveyances a year. Those supporting conveyancing panel culls ask why conveyancing firms deserve any entitlement to be on a lender panel when it is apparent that conveyancing is not their primary expertise?

There must be mutual enforceability of lessee’s covenants. Has the Lease plan been approved by the Land Registry and if not when will they be lodged for this purpose? The Vendor must covenant to keep unoccupied units in good repair until long leases are granted therefore. 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.
