Am I correct in assuming that the fact that my conveyancer in Aston is not on my mortgage company's solicitor panel that there is a problem with the standard of her work?
It would not be wise to jump to that conclusion. There are plenty of reasonable explanations. Just recently a report by the solicitors regulator indicated 76% of law firms surveyed had been removed from at least one lender panel. The top 5 reasons are as follows: (1) lack of transactions (2) the lawyer is a sole practitioner (3) as part of the HSBC panel reduction (4) regulatory contact by SRA (5) accidental removal. Should you be concerned you should contact the Aston conveyancing firm and ask them why they are no longer on the approved list for your bank.
Me and my partner are buying a house in Aston. I might seem paranoid but how we can trust a solicitor? On the day of competition we have to put money into their account. What protection do we have from them run away with our deposit?
Be assured that all money in a Solicitors client account is 100% safe, and even if your Solicitor ran off with it, the Law Society would reimburse you fully.
I am planning to move house in July. Should my conveyancing solicitor liaise with the removal company on the completion day. Incidentally, can you recommend a removal company in Aston. Conveyancing lawyer was found prior to coming across your website.
On the afternoon of completion you can pick up the keys from the estate agent but this can only occur after the sellers conveyancers inform the agent that the monies to complete are in and the keys can be collected. You should tell the removal company that you are ready to move in. We do not recommend a particular removal company but can help you choose a residential property solicitor in Aston or a solicitor with expertise in conveyancing in Aston.

Please supply a car parking plan. The Vendor must covenant to keep unsold units in good repair until long leases are granted therefore. The Lease must contain a provision on behalf of the Vendor to pay the service charges in respect of unoccupied units in order to ensure that all services can be provided.

Where service of notices and proceedings can be at the property demised please confirm that this can be amended to include simultaneous services at the Lessees’ solicitors’ offices where the Lessee from time to time is not resident in the UK - such solicitors may be varied by notice in writing to the Landlord from time to time but otherwise will be as previously specified.
I opted to have a survey carried out on a house in Aston in advance of retaining conveyancers. I have been advised that there is a flying freehold element to the property. My surveyor advised that some banks tend refuse to grant a mortgage on a flying freehold house.
It varies from the lender to lender. HSBC has different instructions for example to Nationwide. If you call us we can investigate further via the relevant lender. If you lender is happy to lend one our lawyers can help as they are accustomed to dealing with flying freeholds in Aston. Conveyancing can be more complicated and therefore you should check with your conveyancing solicitor in Aston to see if the conveyancing will be more expensive.
