Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Blakeney

Is the fact that my solicitor in Blakeney is not on my lender's conveyancing panel that there is a problem with the quality of his conveyancing?

That is more than likely a wrong assumption to make. There are plenty of reasonable explanations. A recent report by the solicitors regulator indicated that over three quarters of law firms surveyed had been removed from at least one lender panel. The top 5 reasons are as follows: (1) low volume of transactions (2) the solicitor is a sole practitioner (3) as part of the HSBC panel reduction (4) regulatory contact by SRA (5) accidental removal. Where you are concerned you should simply call the Blakeney conveyancing firm and ask them why they are no longer on the approved list for your bank.

Our conveyancer has identified a a problem with the lease for the flat we are buying in Blakeney. The seller’s lawyers have put forward title insurance as a workaround. We are content with insurance and will pay for it. Our lawyer says that he must check that the bank is happy with this solution. Are we the client or is the lender?

Notwithstanding that you have a mortgage offer from the lender does not mean to say that the property will meet their specifications for the purposes of a mortgage. Your lawyer has to ensure that the lease has to comply with the UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook requirements. You and the lender are the client. The appropriate lender requirements must be adhered to.

They would have to be very poor to suggest replacing them. Has the loan offer been sent? In the event that it has you need to advise them of the new conveyancer and ensure the mortgage documents are issued to the new lawyers. Your solicitor ideally needs to be on the banks approved list to avoid escalating charges and complications. That should be your first question of the new conveyancers. The find a solicitor tool will assist you in finding a lender approved solicitor for your conveyancing in Blakeney

Our mortgage broker has recommended their property lawyer for my conveyancing in Blakeney - won’t it be better to just instruct them?

It is not always the case and you are entitled to instruct whichever conveyancing practitioner of your choosing for your Blakeney home move. A lawyer recommended by an estate agent may not necessarily be the best conveyancer, they may suggest their preferred conveyancing firm who are based remotely. In this instance you may not have contact with your property lawyer and due to the lack of continuity in the transaction, it may be difficult to obtain progress reports.
