My husband and I are hoping to buy a 2 bedroom flat in Laceby with a homeloan from Birmingham Midshires.We use our Laceby conveyancing solicitor but Birmingham Midshires informed us he's not listed on their approved list of member firms. We have to appoint a Birmingham Midshires panel lawyer or keep our high street solicitor and pay for one of their panel ones to represent them. This seems very unfair; is there anything we can do?
Unfortunately,no. The home loan issued to you contains terms and conditions, one of which will be that solicitors will be on the Birmingham Midshires approved list. in the past, most lenders had large numbers of law firms on their panels: a borrower could choose one for themselves, as long as it was on the lender's panel. The lender would then simply instruct the borrower's lawyers to act for the lender, too. You can use your lender's panel lawyers or you could borrow from another lender which does not restrict your choice. A further alternative is for your solicitors to apply to be on the conveyancing panel for Birmingham Midshires

The risk of flooding is if increasing concern for conveyancers carrying out conveyancing in Laceby.

The conventional set of completed inquiry forms supplied to a purchaser’s conveyancer (where the Conveyancing Protocol is adopted) includes a usual inquiry of the vendor to find out if the property has ever been flooded. If flooding has previously occurred which is not notified by the vendor, then a purchaser could issue a compensation claim resulting from an incorrect answer. A buyer’s lawyers will also conduct an environmental report. This should higlight if there is a recorded flood risk. If so, more detailed investigations should be initiated.
I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold element on a property I put an offer in two weeks back in what should have been a simple, no chain conveyancing. Laceby is the location of the property. Can you offer any advice?

Your mortgage company may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Laceby may decide that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold residence.
