Can you help? My Winchester lawyer is advising me that she is duty bound toconduct Winchester conveyancing searches becausethe firm are on the HSBCapproved lawyer panel. Is my solicitor right?

Unfortunately both you and your lawyer have little choice here. As you are obtaining a mortgage with a mortgage company your lawyer has to comply with their conditions as set out in their version of the CML Conveyancing Handbook. Your conveyancing practitioner would have previously signed the Terms and Conditions of your bank’s conveyancing panel appointment which obliges them to follow the CML Handbook conditions . Even if you were a cash buyer you would be ill advised not to carry out Winchester conveyancing searches.

How up to date is your search tool for Winchester conveyancing solicitors on the Yorkshire BS conveyancing panel? Do Yorkshire BS send you an updated list?

Winchester conveyancing firms themselves provide us confirmation that they are on the Yorkshire BS conveyancing panel as opposed to being supplied with a list from Yorkshire BS directly.

We're in Winchester, FTBs buying with a mortgage (lender is Yorkshire BS , and our lawyer is on the Yorkshire BS conveyancing panel). How long should the conveyancing process take?

The fact that your lawyer is on the Yorkshire BS conveyancing panel is a help. It would almost certainly delay matters if they were not.

The time taken is often determined by the number of parties in a chain.

A conveyancer would have to be very poor in order to consider replacing them. Has your mortgage been issued? In the event that it has you need to advise them of the new contact details and have the offer are re-sent.

My sealed bid on property in Winchester has been accepted, but there is a chain. The current proprietors have put an offer on somewhere, but it’s not been accepted yet, and has viewings of other apartments booked. I have selected a local conveyancing solicitor in Winchester. What do I do now? At what stage should I apply for the mortgage with Aldermore?

It is usual to have concerns where there is an associated chain given your reluctance to be too out of pocket prematurely (home loan application is in the region of one thousand pounds, then valuation, Winchester conveyancing search fees, etc). First, you should ensure that your property lawyer is on the Aldermore approved list. Concerning the subsequent stages this very much depends on the circumstances of your transaction, desire for this property and on the state of the market. During a buoyant market some purchasers would apply for a home loan with Aldermore and pay for the valuation and only if it comes back ok would they ask their conveyancing practitioner to move forward with the conveyancing in Winchester.
