Is the fact that my solicitor in Llanymynech is not identified on my lender's conveyancing panel that there is a problem with the quality of the firm’s conveyancing?
It would be unwise to jump to that conclusion. There are all sorts of perfectly plausible explanations. A recent report by the solicitors regulator revealed that over three quarters of law firms surveyed had been removed from at least one lender panel. The top 5 reasons are as follows: (1) lack of transactions (2) the lawyer is a sole practitioner (3) as part of the HSBC panel reduction (4) regulatory contact by SRA (5) accidental removal. Where you are concerned you should simply call the Llanymynech conveyancing practice and ask them why they are no longer on the approved list for your mortgage company.
When can the exchange of contracts occur in sale conveyancing in Llanymynech and am I required to attend the solicitors branch?
Where you are round the corner to one of the conveyancing solicitors in Llanymynech you are welcome to attend to sign documents. However, the lender approved solicitors we recommend provide countrywide coverage for conveyancing and provide as equally diligent and professional a job for you when dealing with you digitally.

Signing on the dotted line is just a prerequisite for the solicitor to exchange contracts at the appropriate time, which is ordinarily shortly after signing. The procedure is is usually a five minute process, although where a lengthy "chain" is involved, since the process requires the relevant party's solicitor (not necessarily a conveyancing solicitor in Llanymynech)to be in the office available at the end of the phone to exchange contracts.

I'm buying my first flat in Llanymynech benefiting from help to buy. The builders would not budge the amount so I negotiated 6k of additionals instead. The property agent told me not disclose to my lawyer about the deal as it may put at risk my mortgage with Skipton Building Society. Is this normal?.
