You have a number of choices open to you here
- Complete the deal with your preferred Aylsham property lawyer but your lender will no doubt appoint a solicitor from their conveyancing panel. This will result in additional fees together with potential frustration.

- Convince your lawyer to seek to join the bank panel

I am selling my home in Aylsham. Will the lawyer have to be on the Aldermore conveyancing panel in order to deal with paying off my mortgage?
Ordinarily, even if your lawyer is not on the Aldermore conveyancing panel they can still act for you on your sale. It might be that the lender will not release the original deeds (if applicable and increasingly irrelevant) until after the mortgage is paid off. You should speak to your lawyer directly before you start the process though to ensure that there is no problem as lenders are changing their conditions fairly frequently at the moment.

My wife and I purchasing a 4 bedroom semi-detached house in Aylsham. The intention is to carry out a loft conversion at the house.Will the conveyancing process involve checks to determine if these works are allowed?
Your conveyancer will check the deeds as conveyancing in Aylsham will on occasion identify restrictions in the title deeds which restrict categories of works or necessitated the permission of a 3rd party. Many additions call for local authority planning permissions and approval in accordance building regulations. Some locations are designated conservation areas and special planning restrictions apply which often prevent or impact extensions.

At last I have had an offer on an apartment in Aylsham accepted, but there is a chain. The sellers have offered on a property, but it’s not yet agreed to, and have viewings of other properties booked. I have selected a high street conveyancing solicitor in Aylsham. What do I do now? When should I get the mortgage application with Kent Reliance going?
It is usual to have anxieties where there is a chain as you are unlikely to want to incur expenses prematurely (home loan application is approx £1k, then valuation, Aylsham conveyancing search fees, etc). First, you must ensure that your property lawyer is on the Kent Reliance conveyancing panel. Regarding the next phase this very much dictated by the uniqueness of your case, desire for this property and on the state of the market. In a buoyant market many home buyers would apply for a home loan with Kent Reliance and pay for the valuation and only if it comes back ok would they request their conveyancer to proceed with the conveyancing in Aylsham.
