My husband and I are FTB’s - agreed a price, but the selling agent informed us that the vendor will only move forward if we use the agent's preferred solicitors as they are insisting on a ‘quick sale’. My instinct tells me that we should use a family solicitor who is familiar with conveyancing in Grantham

It is unlikely the vendors are behind this. Should the vendor want ‘a quick sale', alienating a genuine purchaser is not the way to achieve this. Speak to the vendors direct and make sure they understand (a)you are keen to buy (b)you are ready to go, with mortgage lined up © you do not need to sell (d) you wish to move quickly (e)however you are going to use your preferred Grantham conveyancing firm - not the ones that will provide their estate agent a introducer fee or meet his conveyancing thresholds demanded by HQ.

My intention is to acquire a garden maisonette in Grantham. Conveyancing solicitor has been waiting for, from the seller, building insurance paperwork. This afternoon I was advised that the seller needs to send the insurance paperwork for the flat above also. Why does my conveyancing practitioner need to review the insurance for the flat above? Is it really required? We have been stalled for the previous month…

It is not unheard of in leasehold conveyancing in Grantham to find Conveyancing in Grantham in a minority of cases reveals that the lease obliges the tenant's to insure their individual flats as opposed to the freeholder insuring the whole property - which is clearly better. You should check with your conveyancer but it would seem that your solicitor is looking to establish that the complete building is insured. Insuring your residence is no help when it comes to rebuilding after a fire if the other flat cannot be reconstructed due to lack of insurance.
