There is lots of here regarding conveyancing in Crowle but what is your top tip for appointing the right conveyancer in Crowle
It would be unwise to be swayed by the cheapest Crowle conveyancing quote. You really do get what you pay for when it comes to conveyancing solicitors. A cheap quote may mean that the conveyancing solicitor is handling a lot of jobs at one time and you won’t get the quality of service and the attention that you need. It is, however, wise to use a conveyancer who has a fixed fee on a no sale, no fee basis. This way, you go into the conveyancing with your eyes wide open.
We expect to receive a OIP from Lloyds this week so we know how much we could potentially offer as otherwise we are dependent on web based calculators (which aren't taking into account credit checks etc). Do Lloyds recommend any Crowle solicitors on the Lloyds conveyancing panel, or is it better to go independently?
You will need to appoint Crowle solicitors independently although you'll need to choose one on the Lloyds conveyancing panel. The solicitor represents both you and Lloyds through the process.
I was told three weeks ago that my mortgage has been agreed to by Virgin Money. Is it usual for Virgin Money to only issue the offer once my solicitor in Crowle is approved on their conveyancing panel? Virgin Money have asked my solicitor to see a copy of their Professional Indemnity Insurance Schedule.
Mortgage companies tend not to not issue a mortgage until they have details of a lawyer on their panel. It can take a few weeks for Virgin Money to deal with your lawyer's application to be on the Virgin Money conveyancing panel. There's no guarantee that your solicitor will be accepted.
We are close to exchanging contracts on the sale of our property in Crowle and the buyers lawyers are claiming that there is a risk of it being constructed on contaminated land. A high street Crowle lawyer would know that there is no such problem. For the life of me I don't know why the buyers instructed an online conveyancing firm rather than a conveyancing solicitor in Crowle. Having lived in Crowle for six years we know that this is a non issue. Should we contact our local Authority to obtain clarification that the buyers are looking for.
It would appear that you have a conveyancing solicitor already. Are they able to advise? You should check with your lawyer before you do anything. It is very possible that once the local authority has been informed of a potential issue it cannot be insured against (a bit like being diagnosed with a serious illness and then taking out life insurance to cover that same ailment)
I opted to have a survey completed on a house in Crowle before retaining lawyers. I have been advised that there is a flying freehold overhang to the house. My surveyor has said that some lenders may not issue a mortgage on this type of property.

The particular law that you refer to provides protection to business leaseholders, granting the a statutory right to make a request to court for a continuation of occupancy at the end of an expired lease.

Back In 2003, I bought a leasehold house in Crowle. Conveyancing and Nationwide Building Society mortgage are in place. I have received a letter from someone claiming to own the freehold. Attached was a demand for arrears of ground rent dating back to 1998. The conveyancing practitioner in Crowle who previously acted has now retired. Any advice?
First make enquiries of the Land Registry to make sure that this person is indeed the registered owner of the freehold reversion. You do not need to instruct a Crowle conveyancing firm to do this as you can do this on the Land Registry website for a few pound. You should note that regardless, even if this is the legitimate freeholder, under the Limitation Act 1980 the limitation period for recovery of ground rent is six years.
