I have been referred to a conveyancing solicitor in Great Yarmouth. I I am struggling to find out whether they are on the Alliance & Leicester conveyancing panel. Could you advise?
The first thing to do is contact the lawyer and enquire if they can act for the lender. Alternatively please get in touch with Alliance & Leicester who may be able to help.
Various internet forums that I have visited warn that are the main cause of obstruction in Great Yarmouth house deals. Is that correct?

Searches are not likely to feature in any delay in conveyancing in Great Yarmouth.
Me and my brother have a 4 bedroom Victorian house in Great Yarmouth. Conveyancing practitioner represented me and Bank of Scotland. I did a free Land Registry search last week and there are two entries: the first freehold, another for leasehold under the exact same property. Is it worth asking Bank of Scotland to clarify?
You need to read the Freehold register you have again and check the Charges Register for mention of a lease. The best way to be sure that you are also the registered owner of the leasehold and freehold title as well is to check (£3). It is not completely unheard of in Great Yarmouth and other areas of the country and poses no real issues for owners other than when they remortgage they have to account for both freehold and leasehold interests when dealing with lenders. You can also enquire as to the position with your conveyancing practitioner who conducted the purchase.
I'm buying a new build house in Great Yarmouth benefiting from help to buy. The developers refused to reduce the price so I negotiated 6k of additionals instead. The sale representative told me not reveal to my solicitor about the extras as it will adversely affect my mortgage with the bank. Should I keep quiet?.
All lenders require a Disclosure of Incentives Form from the developer of any new build, converted or renovated property, It is available online from the Lenders’ Handbook page on the CML website. CML form is completed and handed to the lender's surveyor when the inspection is done.
Lenders have different policies on incentives. Some accept none at all, cash or physical, while others will accept cash incentives up to 5%.
Hard to understand why the representative of a builder would be suggesting you withold information from a solicitor when all this will be clearly visible on forms the builder has to supply to its solicitor, the buyer's solicitor and the surveyor.
I am using a search engine for the phrase conveyancing in Great Yarmouth it shows results of numerous conveyancersin the vicinity. How do I determine which is the right conveyancing solicitor for the sale of my house?
