My IFA has asked me for my Wootton lawyer’ panel reference for the Lloyds conveyancing panel. How do I discover this. I have e-mailed my local Wootton office but they cant find it on their system.
The sensible thing to do is ask for this information from your Wootton conveyancer . They maintain a central record lender panel numbers.
Would the conveyancing solicitors identified via your search tool carry out conveyancing in Wootton by way of an attended exchange?

We were going to get a OIP from Leeds Building Society this week so we know how much we could potentially offer as otherwise we only have online calculators to go by (which aren't taking into account credit checks etc). Do Leeds Building Society recommend any Wootton solicitors on the Leeds Building Society conveyancing panel, or is it better to find our own lawyer?
You will need to appoint Wootton solicitors independently although you'll need to choose one on the Leeds Building Society conveyancing panel. The solicitor represents both you and Leeds Building Society through the process.
I currently have a mortgage with Yorkshire BS for my property in Wootton. Conveyancing was finalised a year ago. Should I wish to rent out my property and do not currently have a buy-to-let mortgage do I need to remortgage to a buy-to-let mortgage or inform Yorkshire BS?
Yorkshire BS must be informed of your intention before letting out your property as this is likely to be a breach of Yorkshire BS’s mortgage conditions. It may be that Yorkshire BS will permit you to let out your former home without needing to switch to a buy-to-let mortgage but some lenders will add a surcharge to your mortgage rate to reflect the higher risk. You should contact Yorkshire BS directly. You need not do this via a Yorkshire BS conveyancing panel lawyer.
Intending to buy a house in Wootton. I have received an online quote from a licenced conveyancer, which states: "There will be no charge for dealing with the Lender if you are obtaining a mortgage". I take this to mean that there will be no additional fee if the solicitor is on the Co-operative 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 Wootton conveyancer is on the Co-operative conveyancing panel.

My wife and I own a semi-detached Victorian house in Wootton. Conveyancing lawyer represented me and Barnsley Building Society. I happened to do a free search for it on the Land Registry database and there are a couple of entries: the first freehold, another for leasehold with the exact same property. I thought I was buying a freehold how can I check?
You should review the Freehold register you have again and check the Charges Register for mention of a lease. The best way to be sure that you are also the registered proprietor of the leasehold and freehold title as well is to check (£3). It is not completely unheard of in Wootton and other locations in the country and poses no real issues for owners other than when they buy they have to account for both freehold and leasehold interests when dealing with lenders. You can also check the position with your conveyancing lawyer who completed the work.
My husband and I are first time buyers - had an offer accepted, yet the property agent has warned us that the owners will only issue a contract if we use their recommended lawyers as they are insisting on an ‘expedited deal’. We would rather use a high street solicitor accustomed to conveyancing in Wootton
We suspect that the owner is unaware of this ultimatum. If they desire ‘a quick sale', taking such a hostile approach to a serious buyer is not the way to achieve this. Try to communicate with the owners directly and make sure they comprehend that (a)you are serious buyers (b)you are excited to move forward, with mortgage lined up © you do not need to sell (d) you intend to proceed fast (e)but you intend to appoint your own,trusted Wootton conveyancing solicitors - not the ones that will give the estate agent a referral fee or hit his conveyancing thresholds demanded by corporate headquarters.
