Do the Building Society Association intend to launch a search tool with a view to list practices on the Coventry BS conveyancing panel for instance in Lansbury?
We are not aware of any plans on the part of the BSA to develop such a tool.
We are aiming to move property in January. Does my conveyancing solicitor update the removal company on the day of completion. On a separate note, can you suggest a removal company in Lansbury. Conveyancing solicitor was organised before I stumbled across this page.
On the day of completion you will need to collect the house keys from your selling agent but this should only take place when the previous owners lawyers advise the agent that they acknowledge receipt of the completion payment and the keys can be collected. Subsequently you should advise the removal men that they can start moving you in. As a matter of policy we do not recommend a specific removal organisation but can assist you in choosing a residential property solicitor in Lansbury or a legal practice that specialises in conveyancing in Lansbury.
We expect to receive a OIP from Coventry BS this week so we can work out what to offer on a property we like as otherwise we only have online calculators to go by (which aren't taking into account credit checks etc). Do Coventry BS recommend any Lansbury solicitors on the Coventry BS conveyancing panel, or is it better to find our own lawyer?
You will need to appoint Lansbury solicitors independently although you'll need to choose one on the Coventry BS conveyancing panel. The solicitor represents both you and Coventry BS through the process.
I have today made my last payment due on my mortgage with Yorkshire BS. I assume I don't need a Lansbury lawyer on the Yorkshire BS panel to remove the mortgage at the Land Registry. Am I right?
If you have finished paying off your Yorkshire BS mortgage, they may send you evidence showing that you have paid it off. Alternatively they may notify the Land Registry directly. The Land Registry need to see this evidence before they will remove the Yorkshire BS mortgage from the register. Yorkshire BS, and any evidence they send you, will determine the action you need to take. In cases where no conveyancer is acting for you and you have paid off your mortgage:
- but are not moving to another property
- where Yorkshire BS has sent the Land Registry the discharge electronically, and
- Yorkshire BS has instructed the Land Registry to do so
Should commercial conveyancing searches disclose impending roadworks that may impact a commercial site in Lansbury?
Many commercial conveyancing solicitors in Lansbury will conduct a SiteSolutions Highways report as it dramatically cuts the time that conveyancers spend in investigating accurate data on highways that impact buildings and development assets in Lansbury. The search result sets out definitive data on the adoption status of roads, footpaths and verges, as well as the implication of traffic schemes and the rights of way surrounding a commercial development sites in Lansbury.
For every commercial conveyancing transaction in Lansbury it is crucial to investigate the adoption status of roads surrounding a site. The absence of identifying developments where adoption procedures have not been dealt with adequately may result in delays to Lansbury commercial conveyancing deals as well as pose a risk to future plans for the site. These searches are not ordered for domestic conveyancing in Lansbury.
I used Action Conveyancing several years ago for my conveyancing in Lansbury. Now, I need my documents but cannot find the solicitor. What do I do?

Alternatively, you should use their online form to make an enquiry. You will need to provide the SRA with as much information as possible to assist their search, including the name and address in Lansbury of the conveyancing firm of solicitors you previously retained, the name of conveyancing solicitor with whom you had dealings, and the date on which you last had dealings with the firm.
How does conveyancing in Lansbury differ for newly converted properties?
Most buyers of new build premises in Lansbury approach us having been asked by the developer to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the residence is constructed. This is because builders in Lansbury usually purchase the real estate, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct conveyancing solicitors as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are accustomed to new build conveyancing in Lansbury or who has acted in the same development.
