I went with a local lawyer for our conveyancing in Whitton recently. After carefully reading the terms of engagement I noteI am responsible for costs even where the conveyance does not complete. Should I go with them or select an internet conveyancing company promoting no move no charge conveyancing in Whitton?
Generally there is a concession along the lines that if "No Completion No Fee" is offered then the fee levels will generally be higher to cover those conveyances that abort. You should be mindful that such deals generally do not cover expenditure e.g. Whitton conveyancing search fees.
Do banks and building societies provide you with an approved list of Whitton conveyancing solicitors? How do you know who is on the Leeds Building Society conveyancing panel?
Whitton conveyancing firms themselves provide us confirmation that they are on the Leeds Building Society conveyancing panel as opposed to being supplied with a list from Leeds Building Society directly.
I used Stirling Law a few years past for my conveyancing in Whitton. I now require my file however the law firm has closed. What do I do?
Do call the Solicitors Regulatory Authority (SRA) to help locate your conveyancing files. They can be contacted on please contact on 0870 606 2555. Alternatively, you should use their online form to make an enquiry. You will need to provide the SRA with as much information as possible to assist their search, including the name and address in Whitton of the conveyancing firm of solicitors you previously used, the name of conveyancing solicitor with whom you had dealings, and the date on which you last had dealings with the firm.
I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold element on a house I put an offer in last month in what should have been a quick, no chain conveyancing. Whitton is the location of the property. What do you suggest?
Flying freeholds in Whitton are not the norm but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Whitton you would need to get your solicitor to go through the deeds very carefully. Your mortgage company may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Whitton 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 wife and I have just had an offer agreed on a flat and had meeting on Tuesday with HSBC for the mortgage. They warned me that when it comes to choosing a property lawyer that if they are not on their approved panel of conveyancers then we will be subject to an a further charge of £200. This is is due to the fact that they will then have to select a solicitor to act on their behalf in addition to the one we choose to act on our behalf and we are liable for their costs. I have requested HSBC to send me with a list so I can seek quotes only from their approved conveyancers but was told that I need to check with each individual solicitor to see if they are on the panel. Is there a simple way of finding out who is on a lender panel?
You can enquire of HSBC what their panel criteria is for a solicitor.Thereafter ask the conveyancing practitioner of your choice whether they meet the criteria and have they acted on loans for HSBC previously. Where the answer to those is yes, then just clarify this with HSBC. Another option is to make use of our search facility and we may be able to find you a lawyer in Whitton on the approved list for HSBC.
