Is the fact that my solicitor in Radcliffe is not listed on my lender's conveyancing panel that there is a problem with the standard of the firm’s conveyancing?
That is more than likely a wrong assumption to make. There are all sorts of perfectly reasonable explanations. A recent report by the solicitors regulator revealed that over three quarters of law firms surveyed had been removed from at least one lender panel. The most common reasons for removal are: (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 simply call the Radcliffe conveyancing firm and enquire why they are no longer on the approved list for your bank.
The Radcliffe conveyancing firm handling our Radcliffe conveyancing has uncovered an inconsistency when comparing the information in the home valuation report and what is in the legal papers for the property. My solicitor says that he is duty bound to check that the lender is OK with this discrepancy and is content to go ahead. Is my lawyer’s approach legitimate?
Your solicitor must comply with the UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook conditions which do require that your lawyer disclose any incorrect assumptions in the lender’s valuation report and the legal papers. Should you refuse to allow your lawyer to make the appropriate notification then your lawyer will have no choice but to discontinue acting for both parties.
Have completed on a a terraced house in Radcliffe , how long should it take for the Land Registry to record my ownership? My Radcliffe conveyancing solicitor has been very slow, so I want to be certain that my purchase is recorded.
There is nothing unique about conveyancing in Radcliffe registration formalities. Rather than based on location, timeframes can vary according to who lodges the application, whether it is in order and whether the Land registry communicate with any other persons or bodies. Currently approximately 80% of submission are completed in less than three weeks but occasionally there can be protracted hold-ups. Registration is effected after the new owner is living at the premises so post completion formalities is not always top priority but if there is a degree of urgency associated with the registration then you or your conveyancer could communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for the application to be prioritised.
