My wife and I have recently appointed a conveyancing solicitor in Godalming. I I would like to check if they are accepted on the Clydesdale conveyancing panel. Can you assist?
The first thing to do is phone the conveyancer and ask them if they can act for the bank. Otherwise you can get in touch with Clydesdale who may be able to confirm.
Just bought a detached house in Godalming , What is the estimated time for the Land Registry to deal with the formalities evidencing my title? My Godalming conveyancing solicitor has been very slow, so I want to be certain that my ownership is recorded.
As far as conveyancing in Godalming registration is no quicker or slower than anywhere else in England and Wales. As opposed to being determined by geographic area, timeframes can differ according to the party submitting the application, whether it is in order and whether the Land registry have to notify any 3rd parties. As of today in the region of 80% of submission are fully addressed within 12 days but occasionally there can be protracted delays. Registration occurs after the buyer has moved in to the property thus an expedited registration is not always top priority but where there is a degree of urgency associated with the registration then you or your conveyancer could communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for an expedited registration.
I opted to have a survey carried out on a property in Godalming in advance of retaining solicitors. I have been told that there is a flying freehold overhang to the house. The surveyor advised that some lenders will refuse to grant a mortgage on this type of home.

The primary upside of using a local Godalming conveyancing practice is that you can pop in to sign documents, present your ID and pester them where appropriate. They will also have local intelligence which is a benefit. That being said nothing is more important than finding someone that will pull out all the stops for you.

I'm buying a house in Godalming. I can find my conveyancer's company on the CLC list, but I can't see my conveyancer's name as listed on the regulator's website. Should I be concerned?
Not every individual in the law firm must be listed by the regulator. As long there is someone qualified to 'oversee' the transaction, the actual day-to-day activity can be conducted by unqualified staff.
