I can't travel far from Machen. I would like to know the reason why all Machen conveyancing practitioners aren't included on all bank panels?
Before the recession most mortgage companies exhibited an attitude to risk which is different from today. The Financial Services Authority in 2010 instigated a thematic review into mortgage fraud which concluded: know the lawyers on your panel. As a result, lenders have since requiredmore information from law firms about their processes and the individuals employed by them and set certain criteria such as completing a minimum amount of transactions. Hundreds of firms have been excluded from lender panels even though they had an exemplary track record, no complaints and no claims and didn't just 'dabble' in conveyancing. Many firms found it impossible meet the minimum amount of transactions the lenders insisted on.

I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold issue on a property I put an offer in two weeks back in what should have been a simple, no chain conveyancing. Machen is where the house is located. Can you offer any assistance?
Flying freeholds in Machen are unusual but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses.

Your lender may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy.

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 premises.
