Am I correct in assuming that the fact that my conveyancer in Melton Mowbray is not identified on my lender's conveyancing panel that there is a problem with the standard of the firm’s work?
It would not be wise to jump to that conclusion. There are all sorts of perfectly plausible explanations. Just recently a report by the solicitors regulator indicated 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) low volume of transactions (2) the solicitor is a sole practitioner (3) as part of the HSBC panel reduction (4) regulatory contact by SRA (5) accidental removal. Should you be concerned you should contact the Melton Mowbray conveyancing practice and ask them why they are no longer on the approved list for your mortgage company.

My mother and father are encountering difficulties in finding their Melton Mowbray land registry title on the website. They have a vague memory back in the 70’s when they purchased the house there were complications with Melton Mowbray not being identified on some systems.
Almost all residences in Melton Mowbray should appear. Have you tried a search to just the postcode. Usually it will reveal all the residences within that postcode. Where registered it will show up with a title number. If they bought back in the 70’s it's conceivable it may be not yet registered. The property could still be revealed but with the title number shown 'na'. In this scenario you will need to find the original title documentation which may be with your parent’s mortgage company.
