My Iver conveyancer has identified a difference when comparing the surveyor’s assumptions in the home valuation survey and what is in the title deeds. My solicitor has advised that he is obliged to check that the bank is OK with this discrepancy and is content to go ahead. Is my lawyer’s approach legitimate?
Your conveyancer must comply with the UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook specifications 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.
Can you clarify what the consequences are if my lawyer’s firm is removed from the Coventry BS Conveyancing panel ahead of completing my conveyancing in Iver?
First, this is very unlikely to happen. In most cases even where a law firm is removed off of a panel the lender would allow the completion to go ahead as the lender would appreciate the difficulties that they would place you in if you have to instruct a new solicitor days before completion. In a worst case scenario where the lender insists that you instruct a new firm then it is possible for a very good lawyer to expedite the conveyancing albeit that you may pay a significant premium for this. The analogous situation is where a buyer instructs a lawyer, exchanges contracts and the law firm is shut down by a regulator such as the SRA. Again, in this situation you can find lawyers who can troubleshoot their way to bring the conveyancing to a satisfactory conclusion - albeit at a cost.
Despite weeks of looking the Title Certificate and documents to our house can not be found. The lawyers who did the conveyancing in Iver 4 years ago are no longer around. What are my options?

I am buying a new build house in Iver with the aid of help to buy. The builders would not budge the amount so I negotiated 6k of extras instead. The sale representative told me not reveal to my conveyancer about this extras as it will put at risk my loan with the lender. Do I keep my lawyer in the dark?.
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.
Estate agents have just been given the go-ahead to market my basement apartment in Iver. Conveyancing lawyers have not yet been instructed, however I have just received a half-yearly maintenance charge demand – what should I do?
The sensible thing to do is discharge the service charge as usual because all rents and service invoices will be allotted on completion, so you should recover the relevant percentage by the buyer for the period running from after the completion date to the next payment date. Most management companies will not acknowledge the buyer unless the service charges have been paid and are up to date, so it is important for both buyer and seller for the seller to show that they are up to date. Having a clear account will assist your cause and will leave you no worse off financially.
I have attempted and failed to negotiate with my landlord for a lease extension without getting anywhere. Can I make an application to the Leasehold Valuation Tribunal? Can you recommend a Iver conveyancing firm to act on my behalf?
if there is a missing freeholder or if there is dispute about the premium for a lease extension, under the relevant legislation you can apply to the First-tier Tribunal (Property Chamber) to make a decision on the price payable.
