Am I correct in assuming that the fact that my conveyancer in Park Hill is not on my bank's conveyancing panel that there is a problem with the standard of her conveyancing?
It would be unwise to jump to that conclusion. There are all sorts of perfectly reasonable explanations. A recent 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) lack of transactions (2) the lawyer 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 Park Hill conveyancing practice and enquire why they are no longer on the approved list for your bank.
When will exchange of contracts occur in purchase conveyancing in Park Hill and am I required to be at the conveyancers office?

That being said, the lender approved solicitors we work with supply countrywide coverage for conveyancing and provide as equally comprehensive and professional a job for you when communicating with you by post or email.

Signing on the dotted line simply enables the firm to officially exchange at the appropriate time, which will usually be very shortly after signing. The procedure is nowadays normally dealt with by telephone and can be very rapid, although where a long "chain" is involved, since the process requires the relevant party's solicitor (not necessarily a conveyancing solicitor in Park Hill)to be in the office at the appropriate time.

How does conveyancing in Park Hill differ for newly converted properties?
Most buyers of new build premises in Park Hill contact us having been asked by the housebuilder to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the property is finished. This is because house builders in Park Hill typically buy the site, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct conveyancers as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are accustomed to new build conveyancing in Park Hill or who has acted in the same development.
I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold element on a house I have offered on two weeks back in what was supposed to be a quick, chain free conveyancing. Park Hill is where the house is located. Is there any guidance you can give?
Flying freeholds in Park Hill are rare but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even though you don't necessarily need a conveyancing solicitor in Park Hill you would need to get your solicitor to go through the deeds thoroughly. Your bank may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Park Hill may ascertain that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. 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.
