At what point will exchange of contracts happen for domestic conveyancing in Wynyard and am I required to be at the conveyancers branch?
If you are in close proximity to one of the conveyancing solicitors in Wynyard you are invited in to sign contracts. That being said, the lender approved solicitors we recommend supply a countrywide conveyancing service and give as equally detailed and professional a job for you when dealing with you electronically. The signing of the purchase agreement is not the critical part. A signed contract simply enables the firm to exchange contracts when the time is right, which will usually be very shortly after signing. The exchange process is nowadays normally dealt with by telephone and can be very rapid, although where a lengthy "chain" is in the mix, since the process requires the relevant party's solicitor (not necessarily a conveyancing solicitor in Wynyard)to be in the office at the appropriate time.
My fiancee and I are in the process of looking at flats in Wynyard and I am now considering a potential offer. Is it premature to have a solicitor in place? I am planning to take a mortgage with Bank of Ireland.
You should start obtaining conveyancing quotes from solicitors ASAP. Once you decide who you want to use and once your offer is accepted you can instruct them to work for you and forward their contact information on to the selling agent. As you are taking out a mortgage with Bank of Ireland, ask your prospective lawyers if they are on the Bank of Ireland conveyancing panel otherwise they can't do the mortgage legal work.
After weeks of negotiation I have agreed a price on an apartment in Wynyard. My mortgage broker suggested a lawyer. I paid an on account payment of £150. Shortly after, the conveyancer called me sheepishly admitting that they were not on the RBS conveyancing panel. Am I right in thinking that I should be due a refund?
You should be able to recover this from the law firm if they were not on the RBS panel. They should have asked at the outset which lender you were obtaining a mortgage with. An important lesson to readers of this site is to check that the lawyers are on the appropriate lender panel.

2 months have elapsed following my purchase conveyancing in Wynyard concluded. I have checked the Land Registry site which shows that I paid £150,000 when infact I paid £170,000. Why the discrepancy?
The price paid figure is taken from the application to register the purchase. It is the figure included in the Transfer (the legal deed which transfers the asset from one person to the other) and referred to as the 'consideration' or purchase price. You can report an error in the price paid figure using the LR online form. In most cases errors result from typos so at first glance the figure. Do report it so they can double check and advise.
I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold issue on a property I put an offer in last month in what was supposed to be a straight forward, no chain conveyancing. Wynyard is where the house is located. What do you suggest?
Flying freeholds in Wynyard are unusual but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even though you don't necessarily need a conveyancing solicitor in Wynyard 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 Wynyard 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 residence.
