Please help. My Fordingbridge solicitor is informing me me that he has toconduct Fordingbridge conveyancing searches asthe firm are on the Virgin Moneyconveyancing panel. Do I not have a choice here?

Unfortunately both you and your lawyer have little choice here. As you are taking a home loan with a lender your conveyancing practitioner has to comply with their conditions as set out in their version of the CML Conveyancing Handbook. Your solicitor would have previously signed the Terms and Conditions of your lender’s conveyancing panel appointment which obliges them to follow the CML Handbook conditions . Even if you were a cash buyer you would be ill advised not to carry out Fordingbridge conveyancing searches.

It is is a decade since I purchased my house in Fordingbridge. Conveyancing lawyers have recently been instructed on the sale but I am unable to find my title documents. Will this jeopardise the sale?

You need not be too concerned. Firstly the deeds may be with the lender or they could still be with the conveyancers who acted in your purchase. Secondly the chances are that the property will be recorded at the land registry and you will be able to prove you are the registered owner by your conveyancing solicitors acquiring current official copies of the land registers. Most conveyancing in Fordingbridge relates to registered property but in the unlikely event that your home is not registered it adds to the complexity but is not insurmountable.

Is it necessary during the course of the conveyancing process to have a meeting at the offices of the solicitor to execute the legal charge? If so, I will choose one who does conveyancing in Fordingbridge so that I can attend their offices if required.

Whereas this was necessary ten years ago, almost all banks no longer need their conveyancing panel lawyer to witness the mortgagors signature. You will still be obliged to provide ID documents and there are still distinct advantages to using a local solicitor, in your case a conveyancing solicitor in Fordingbridge.

    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. Please confirm the Lease plans are surveyor prepared. Please supply evidence that the form of Lease proposed has been approved by the Land Registry. Where there is an Undertaking being granted there is the risk of forfeiture of the Headlease subject to relief if one or more of the Underlessees are willing to accept the original Head Lessee’s obligations as otherwise relief will be denied to the Underlessees.
