I am expecting a mortgage offer from Lloyds. My intention is to employ the services of a Licensed Conveyancer in Oswestry. Does the Lloyds Conveyancing panel allow for conveyancers regulated by the CLC?
The Lloyds approved solicitor list is, like many other lenders, represented by the Council or Mortgage Lenders or BSA, open to Licensed Conveyancers regulated by the CLC.

I am helping my aunt sell her house in Oswestry. Will the solicitor commission the energy assessment or it is for the seller to see to?
Following the demise of Home Packs, EPC’s remained a required component of moving property. An EPC must be commissioned prior to the property being put on the market. It is not a task that solicitors normally arrange. If you are using a Oswestry conveyancing lawyer they might be willing to arrange energy performance certificates due to their contacts with long established local assessors
My solicitor has informed me that lack of right of way insurance is required on my purchase. What is the level of cover for Oswestry conveyancing?
The right level of lack of right of way indemnity insurance should be dictated by who who your lender is. It would differ for example between Yorkshire Building Society and Norwich and Peterborough Building Society. Conveyancing solicitors as opposed to members of the public take out such insurances.
I am currently in the process of buying my council flat in Oswestry. I have a mortgage agreed with Lloyds. Conveyancing is new to me. Can I proceed without a solicitor easily? I think we can but we keep being told I should have one. Any advice?
It is not advisable to proceed with a house purchase without a solicitor. The council's solicitor are not acting for you. You need a solicitor for a number reasons. One of which is to verify what plans the Council have for repairs and refurbishment for the next five years. Many leaseholders have been stung for contributions of thousands of pounds. In any event, if you are getting a mortgage with Lloyds, you will need to appoint a solicitor on the Lloyds conveyancing panel.
My partner and I are planning on selling our home in Oswestry and according to the buyers it appears that there is a possibility that the property was constructed land that was not decontaminated. Any local conveyancer would know that there is no such problem. It does beg the question why the purchasers instructed a factory type conveyancing firm as opposed to a conveyancing solicitor in Oswestry. We have lived in Oswestry for three years we know that this is a non issue. Do we get in touch with our local Authority to obtain clarification need.
It would appear that you have a conveyancing solicitor already. Are they able to advise? You need to check with your lawyer before you do anything. It is very possible that once the local authority has been informed of a potential issue it cannot be insured against (a bit like being diagnosed with a serious illness and then taking out health insurance to cover that same sickness)
The estate agent has sent us the confirmation of our purchase of a new build apartment in Oswestry. Conveyancing is necessary evil at the best of times but I have never purchased a new build flat before. Can you give me some examples of some of the questions asked in new build legal work.
Set out below are examples of a few leasehold new build questions that you can expect your new-build leasehold conveyancing in Oswestry
-
Please supply a car parking plan. Please confirm the Lease plans are architect prepared. There must be mutual enforceability of lessee’s covenants. Where there is an Undertaking being granted there is the risk of forfeiture of the Headlease subject to relief if one or more of the Underlessees are willing to accept the original Head Lessee’s obligations as otherwise relief will be denied to the Underlessees. The only alternatives are the Head Lessor agreeing not to forfeit the Headlease or the Head Lessee guaranteeing to the Underlessees that it will not be in breach of the Headlease.
