A loan offer from Nationwide for the remortgage of my 3 room apartment is expected within the next few days. Are you able to propose a low cost conveyancing practitioner in Northwick Park?
You have come to the wrong place to search for cut-price fees for conveyancing solicitors in Northwick Park. We can offer you cost effective conveyancing but our intention is not to work with the cheapest lawyers.

Please explain the implications if my solicitor is expelled from the Nottingham Conveyancing panel ahead of completing my conveyancing in Northwick Park?
The first thing to point out is that, this is a very rare occurrence. In most cases even where a law firm is removed off of a panel the lender would allow the completion to go ahead as the lender would appreciate the difficulties that they would place you in if you have to instruct a new solicitor days before completion. In a worst case scenario where the lender insists that you instruct a new firm then it is possible for a very good lawyer to expedite the conveyancing albeit that you may pay a significant premium for this. The analogous situation is where a buyer instructs a lawyer, exchanges contracts and the law firm is shut down by a regulator such as the SRA. Again, in this situation you can find lawyers who can troubleshoot their way to bring the conveyancing to a satisfactory conclusion - albeit for a fee.
I am purchasing a new build house in Northwick Park with a mortgage from Platform Home Loans Ltd. The sellers refused to budge the price so I negotiated £7000 of fixtures and fittings instead. The house builders rep advised me not disclose to my lawyer about this extras as it would affect my mortgage with Platform Home Loans Ltd. Do I keep my lawyer in the dark?.
All lenders require a Disclosure of Incentives Form from the developer of any new build, converted or renovated property, It is available online from the Lenders’ Handbook page on the CML website. CML form is completed and handed to the lender's surveyor when the inspection is done.
Lenders have different policies on incentives. Some accept none at all, cash or physical, while others will accept cash incentives up to 5%.
Hard to understand why the representative of a builder would be suggesting you withold information from a solicitor when all this will be clearly visible on forms the builder has to supply to its solicitor, the buyer's solicitor and the surveyor.
