is it true that all Harold Park solicitor practices on the Kent Reliance conveyancing panel are overseen by the SRA?
As a firm of solicitors, in order to be on the Kent Reliance approved list of solicitors they would need to be regulated by the Solicitors Regulatory Authority. The majority of banks do list licenced conveyancers on their panel and in that case the firms would be regulated by the CLC.
I am selling my house. I had a double glazing fitted in August 2010, but did not receive a FENSA certificate or Building Regulation Certificate. My purchaser’s mortgage company, Kent Reliance are being difficult. The Harold Park solicitor who is on the Kent Reliance conveyancing panel is saying indemnity insurance will be fine but Kent Reliance are insisting on a building regulation certificate. Why do Kent Reliance have a conveyancing panel if they don't accept advice from them?
It is probably the case that Kent Reliance have referred the matter to their valuer. The reason why Kent Reliance may not want to accept indemnity insurance is because it does not give them any reassurance that the double glazing was correctly and safely installed. The indemnity insurance merely protects against enforcement action which is very unlikely anyway.
Planning on purchasing a maisonette in Harold Park. I have received an online quote from a licenced conveyancer, which states: "There will be no charge for dealing with the Building Society if you are obtaining a mortgage".

I wanted to make sure it means there will be no additional fees for dealing with the mortgage.
They are simply saying that the cost for acting for the lender is included in the fee being quoted. It is worth you checking that the Harold Park conveyancer is on the Kent Reliance conveyancing panel.
