My financial adviser says he needs my Lanchester solicitor’s panel member for the HSBC conveyancing panel. Can you suggest how I obtain this. I have e-mailed my local Lanchester branch but they have not got back to me yet.
The sensible thing to do is ask for this information from your Lanchester property lawyer . Most Lanchester law practices will retain a file or database of lender panel information which would include, if applicable, their conveyancing panel details for each lender.
Finally the sale completed on my house in Lanchester last November but my buyer keeps SMS messaging daily complaining that her solicitor is waiting to hear from mine. What should have happened following completion?
Following your house sale your solicitor is obliged to send the transfer deeds and all of the paperwork to the buyer’s lawyers. Where appropriate, your solicitor should also evidence that the legal charge in favour of the lender has been redeemed to the purchasers conveyancers. There are no post completion steps unique to conveyancing in Lanchester.
I am selling our property in Lanchester and according to the buyers it appears that there is a possibility that the property was built on contaminated land. Any high street Lanchester conveyancer would know this is not the case. It does beg the question why the purchasers instructed an internet conveyancing firm as opposed to a conveyancing solicitor in Lanchester. We have lived in Lanchester for many years we know of no issue. Is it a good idea to contact our local Authority to seek clarification need.
It would appear that you have a conveyancing lawyer already. What do they say? You must enquire of your lawyer before you do anything. It is very possible that once the local authority has been informed of a potential issue it cannot be insured against (a bit like being diagnosed with a serious illness and then taking out life insurance to cover that same ailment)
I am looking for a leasehold apartment up to £195,000 and identified one near me in Lanchester I like with amenity areas and transport links in the vicinity, the downside is that it only has 52 remaining years left on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Lanchester suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake acquiring a short lease?
If you need a mortgage the remaining unexpired lease term will likely be a potential deal breaker. Discount the offer by the expected lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the existing proprietor has owned the property for at least 2 years you can request that they commence the lease extension formalities and then assign it to you. You can add 90 years to the existing lease term and have £0 ground rent by law. You should consult your conveyancing lawyer concerning this matter.

I need to appoint a conveyancing solicitor for freehold conveyancing in Lanchester. I've land on a web site which appears to be the ideal solution If it is possible to get all formalities completed via phone that would be ideal. Do I need to be wary? What should out be looking out for?
As usual with these online conveyancers you need to read ALL the small print - did you notice the extra charge for dealing with the mortgage?
