Is the fact that my conveyancer in Keighley is not on my lender's conveyancing panel that there is a problem with the quality of his work?
That would more than likely be an incorrect assumption to make. There are plenty of plausible explanations. A recent report by the solicitors regulator revealed 76% of law firms surveyed had been removed from at least one lender panel. The most common reasons for removal are: (1) lack of transactions (2) the solicitor is a sole practitioner (3) as part of the HSBC panel reduction (4) regulatory contact by SRA (5) accidental removal. Should you be concerned you should contact the Keighley conveyancing practice and enquire why they are no longer on the approved list for your bank.
Last March we completed a house move in Keighley. We have noticed several problems with the property which we believe were missed in the conveyancing searches. Do we have any recourse? What searches should? have been ordered for conveyancing in Keighley?
The question is vague as what problems have arisen and if they are specific to conveyancing in Keighley. Conveyancing searches and investigations initiated during the legal transfer of property are designed to help avoid problems. As part of the process, the vendor completes a document known as a Seller’s Property Information Form. If the information proves to be incorrect, you could possibly take legal action against the owner for any losses that you have suffered. The survey should have identified any problems with the structure of the property. Assuming a detailed survey was carried out and the issues were not identified, you may have a claim against the surveyor. However, if you did not have a full survey, you may be responsible for fixing any defects that have now been noted. We would always encourage buyers to take every possible step to ensure they are completely aware of the condition of a property before purchase regardless of whether they are buying in Keighley.
Due to the advice of my in-laws I had a survey completed on a house in Keighley in advance of instructing lawyers. I have been advised that there is a flying freehold element to the property. My surveyor advised that some banks may not grant a mortgage on such a home.

Having had my offer accepted I require leasehold conveyancing in Keighley. Before I get started I require certainty as to the unexpired term of the lease.
If the lease is recorded at the land registry - and most are in Keighley - then the leasehold title will always include the basic details of the lease, namely the date; the term; and the original parties. From a conveyancing perspective such details then enable any prospective buyer and lender to confirm that any lease they are looking at is the one relevant to that title. For any other purpose, such as confirming how long the term was granted for and calculating what is left, then the register should be sufficient on it's own.
