The Oswestry conveyancing lawyers that I recently instructed on my house acquisition in Oswestry have without warning closed. I only went with them because I had to have a firm on the Lloyds conveyancing panel and my family Oswestry lawyer was not. I paid them money in advance. What are my options?
If you have an estate agent involved then inform them immediately so that they can let the sellers know that there may be a slight delay due to reasons beyond your control. Hopefully they will be sympathetic and urge their lawyer to send a new set of papers to your new solicitors. You will need to appoint new lawyers that are on the Lloyds conveyancing panel and notify the lender. If you have paid over any money, it will hopefully be held by the SRA as money in an intervened firm's bank accounts is transferred to the SRA. Then, the SRA or the intervention agent looks at the intervened firm's accounts to work out who the money belongs to. To claim your money you will need to contact the SRA. If the SRA cannot return money you are owed from the firm's bank accounts, or if they can only return part of the money, you can apply to the Compensation Fund for a grant. Your new solicitors should be in a position to help.

Our offer on a property in Oswestry has been agreed to, but there is a chain. The sellers have offered on a flat, but it’s not been accepted yet, and have viewings of other apartments in the pipeline. I have instructed a bricks and mortar conveyancing solicitor in Oswestry. What should be my next step? At what point do I apply for the mortgage with HSBC?
It is understandable to have concerns where there is a chain as you are unlikely to want to incur expenses too early (home loan application is in the region of one thousand pounds, then survey, Oswestry conveyancing search charges, etc). The first thing to do is check that your conveyancing practitioner is on the HSBC conveyancing panel. Concerning the subsequent steps this very much depends on the uniqueness of your transaction, attraction to this property and on the state of the market. During a hot market some buyers would apply for a home loan with HSBC and pay for the valuation and only if it comes back ok would they request their lawyer to press on with searches.
