I plan on purchasing a maisonette in Gurnard. My property lawyer has never been on on the bank solicitor list. Is it possible for me to use my Gurnard conveyancing solicitor even though they are not on the lender panel of approved conveyancing solicitors?
One will need to use a conveyancer to deal with the formalities if you take out a mortgage to purchase your home. They will carry out all the essential due diligence on the property, make sure that you’re properly registered as the owner and ensure that all the required mortgage documentation is dealt with. One can appoint a Gurnard solicitor of your choosing. Nevertheless, where the conveyancing practitioner appointed is not on the lender approved list supplemental fees will be incurred as separate legal representation will be need by the lender. Lender panel applications may be submitted, so provided your conveyancer has not in the past applied for membership they should do so.
Our Gurnard lawyer has uncovered a discrepancy when comparing the assumptions in the valuation report and what is revealed within the conveyancing documents. My solicitor has advised that he is duty bound to check that the lender is OK with this discrepancy and is content to go ahead. Is my conveyancer’s course or action appropriate?
Your lawyer must comply with the UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook requirements which do require that your lawyer disclose any incorrect assumptions in the lender’s valuation report and the legal papers. Should you refuse to allow your lawyer to make the appropriate notification then your lawyer will have no choice but to discontinue acting for you.

Taking into account that I will soon part with 450k on a property in Gurnard I wish to talk to a solicitor about myhome move before giving the go ahead to the firm. Can this be arranged?
Absolutely - it is our preference to talk to you we do not take any clients on without you first talking to the lawyer due to be doing your property ownership legalities in Gurnard.There is no ‘factory style conveyancing’ - each client is unique individual, not a matter number. The law firms that we put you in touch with believe that the figure you are quoted for your conveyancing in Gurnard should be the figure that you are charged.
Am I best advised to instruct a Gurnard conveyancing solicitor who is local to the property I am buying? We have a good friend who can perform the legal formalities but they are based 400miles away.
The primary upside of using a high street Gurnard conveyancing firm is that you can visit the firm to sign documents, present your ID and apply pressure on them if necessary. They will also have local insight which is a benefit. However it's more important to get someone that will do a good and efficient job. If other friends have used your friend and in the main were content that must trump using an unfamiliar Gurnard conveyancing solicitor solely due to them being round the corner.
There are a lot of properties in Gurnard on unadopted roads. I am purchasing one such house. What would be the advantages and disadvantages of buying a residence on a privately owned road?
Gurnard conveyancing lawyers are familiar with dealing homeson unadopted roads. Your conveyancing practitioner should investigate Land Registry data to find any rights or liabilities. In many cases there is a residents association that owners pay into for the upkeep of the road. Where one exists, the road should be maintained and look nicer than council maintained.
