Why do I have to pay up front for my conveyancing in Heywood?

We are due to move house in September. Should my conveyancing solicitor communicate with the removal company on the completion day. On a separate note, can you recommend a removal company in Heywood. Conveyancing firm was organised prior to coming across your page.
On the afternoon of completion you will need to pick up the house keys from the estate agent but this should only be done after the vendors conveyancers advise the agent that they have the completion monies and the keys can be collected.

As a matter of policy we do not recommend a particular removal organisation but can help you choose a residential property solicitor in Heywood or a firm that specialises in conveyancing in Heywood.
Are all Heywood Conveyancing Quality Solicitors on the Aldermore conveyancing panel?
It is true that some banks and building societies now use the accreditation scheme as the starting point for Panel approval such as HSBC and Santander.

That being said,the CML have indicated that it is likely to become a pre-requisite for firms wishing to remain on their approved list of firms.
I recently had an offer agreed on an apartment in Heywood. My mortgage broker recommended their conveyancers. I paid an advanced payment of £225. Soon after, the conveyancing practitioner called me to say that they were not on the Kent Reliance conveyancing panel. Am I right in thinking that I should be due a refund?
You should be able to recover this from the law firm if they were not on the Kent Reliance panel. They should have asked at the outset which lender you were obtaining a mortgage with. An important lesson to readers of this site is to check that the lawyers are on the appropriate lender panel.

I'm buying my first flat in Heywood with the aid of help to buy. The sellers refused to budge the price so I negotiated five thousand pounds worth of fixtures and fittings instead.

All lenders require a Disclosure of Incentives Form from the builder 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.

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.
My husband and I may need to sub-let our Heywood 1st floor flat for a while due to taking a sabbatical. We used a Heywood conveyancing practice in 2004 but they have closed and we did not have the foresight to get any guidance as to whether the lease allows us to sublet. How do we find out?
Your lease dictates relations between the landlord and you the flat owner; in particular, it will set out if subletting is prohibited, or permitted but only subject to certain caveats. The rule is that if the lease contains no expres ban or restriction, subletting is allowed. The majority of leases in Heywood do not prevent an absolute prevention of subletting – such a clause would adversely affect the market value the property. In most cases there is a basic requirement that the owner notifies the freeholder, possibly supplying a duplicate of the tenancy agreement.
