I am buying property in Yarmouth. My Solicitor is not on the mortgage company approved panel. Can I still use my Yarmouth conveyancing solicitor notwithstanding that they are not on the bank panel of approved conveyancing solicitors?
One must instruct a conveyancing practitioner to complete the legal work required when you need a mortgage to buy your home. The solicitor will carry out all the essential due diligence on the property, make sure that you will be properly registered as the owner and ensure that all the necessary mortgage documentation is dealt with. You could select a Yarmouth property lawyer of your choice. However, where the lawyer selected is not on the lender conveyancing panel additional charges will be incurred as separate legal representation will be need by the mortgage company. Lender panel applications can be submitted, so provided your solicitor has not previously sought membership they should take the opportunity to apply.
We are a couple about to exchange contracts for a garden flat in Yarmouth. We encountered a problem. Our mortgage offer with Nottingham Building Society expires on 30/3/2026 but the sellers are suggesting a completion date of 1/4/2026. Can one prolong the loan offer?
The best person to address this issue is your lawyer who will hopefully assess whether he or she is should be discussing with the mortgage broker, vendor’s representatives, estate agents or indeed all parties given the history of your transaction as of today.

The Council of Property Search Organisations (CoPSO) released conclusions of research by MoveWithUs that conveyancing searches do not figure within the most frequent causes of delays in the conveyancing process. Local searches are unlikely to be the root cause of holding up conveyancing in Yarmouth.
I have recentlyfound out that Arc property Solicitors have been shut down. They carried out my conveyancing in Yarmouth for a purchase of a freehold house 9 months ago. How can I establish that the property is not still registered in the name of the former proprietor?
The quickest way to check if the property is in your name, you can carry out a search of the land registry (£3.00). You can either do this yourself or ask a law firm to do this for you. If you are not registered you can seek help from one of a number of Yarmouth conveyancing specialists.
I have been pointed in your direction by numerous property agents in Yarmouth to select a conveyancer using your seach tool. Is there a financial upside for Estate Agents to recommend your services ahead of a competitor’s?
We refuse to make any referral fee for sending work our way. We thought it would be too underhand a fee as home movers will think, ‘How come the agent getting a kickback? Why am I not receiving any benefit too?’ We would prefer to grow our business on genuine recommendations.
