My mortgage broker has requested my Leyland lawyer’ panel member for the HSBC conveyancing panel. What is the best way to find this out. I have tried my local Leyland office but they don't know it.
Have you tried calling your Leyland conveyancing practitioner about this?. They keep a central record lender panel numbers.
I am soon to exchange on the purchase of a property in Leyland but as a result of wreckage from the recent storms I have was able negotiate recompense from the current proprietors of £3k by way of a adjustment in the price. This was going to be addressed as part of the conveyancing process however Nottingham will not permit this. Should they have been notified?
The solicitor being on a Nottingham conveyancing panel is obliged to disclose to Nottingham of any variations to the sale price. If you prohibit your property lawyer to report the reduction to Nottingham then they would have to discontinue acting for you. In addition, Nottingham and you would have to appoint a new property lawyer for your conveyancing in Leyland.

Bank of Ireland have specific requirements as set out in the UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook in relation to minimum unexpired lease terms. As of 24/1/2021 the requirements read as follows :

Now that you are exchanged you now have to choose a conveyancing practitioner as a matter of priority as you are facing a tight a drop dead date to complete the deal. All auction property will ordinarily have a corresponding auction pack. This will likely include evidence of title and search results.

After what seems like an age I have had an offer on an apartment in Leyland accepted, but there is a chain. The owners have offered on on an apartment, but it’s not been accepted yet, and are looking at other apartments booked. I have selected a bricks and mortar conveyancing solicitor in Leyland. What do I do now? At what stage do I apply for the mortgage with Barclays?
It is usual to have concerns where there is a chain as you are unlikely to want to incur costs prematurely (home loan application is in the region of one thousand pounds, then survey, Leyland conveyancing search fees, etc). The first thing to do is check that your conveyancing practitioner is on the Barclays approved list. Concerning the subsequent stages this very much depends on the circumstances of your case, desire for this property and on the state of the market. During a hot market some home buyers will apply for a home loan with Barclays and pay for the valuation and only if it was satisfactory would they ask their conveyancing practitioner to press on with searches.

Yesterday I discovered that there is a flying freehold issue on a house I put an offer in a fortnight ago in what was supposed to be a simple, chain free conveyancing. Leyland is where the house is located. Can you offer any assistance?
Flying freeholds in Leyland are unusual but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even though you don't necessarily need a conveyancing solicitor in Leyland you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds very carefully. Your mortgage company may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Leyland may ascertain 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 property.
