I am need of leasehold conveyancing for an apartment in a fairly new development (seven years old) in Wrington. 95% of the properties are already sold. Is it really necessary to order conveyancing searches for my conveyancing in Wrington?
Where you are obtaining a loan, your lender will insist on some (many) of the searches so you'll have no choice. If not, then Wrington conveyancing searches are optional. Your solicitor, will 'advise', perhaps in the strongest possible terms, that you should have the searches done, but he or she has a professional duty to do this. One thing to bear in mind; if you are likely to sell the house one day, it may be of interest to your future buyer what the searches contain. Sometimes houses with no practical issues can still throw up adverse search results. But if you insist that your lawyer to proceed without searches then your lawyer will have to follow your instructions or you will need to change to another solicitor for your conveyancing in Wrington.
My fiance and I are hoping to buy a purpose built flat in Wrington with a mortgage from Clydesdale.We like our Wrington conveyancing practitioner but Clydesdale advised that she’s not on their "panel". we are left little option but to use a Clydesdale panel lawyer or keep our preferred solicitor and fork out for a Clydesdale panel lawyer to act for them. This seems very unfair; is there anything we can do?
No, not really. The mortgage offered to you contains various provisions, a common one being that lawyers will be on the Clydesdale conveyancing panel. in the past, most banks had large numbers of solicitors on their panels: a borrower could find one for themselves, as long as it was on the lender's panel. The lender would then simply instruct the borrower's lawyers to act for the lender, too. You can use your lender's panel lawyers or you could borrow from another lender which does not restrict your choice. Another option that might be available is for your solicitors to apply to be on the conveyancing panel for Clydesdale

Lenders have different policies on incentives. Some accept none at all, cash or physical, while others will accept cash incentives up to 5%.
