I was informed yesterday by my broker that my Romford solicitor is not on the mortgage company Solicitor panel. What can I do to be sure if this is correct?
The first thing you need to do is to contact your Romford conveyancer. It is reasonable to expect your lawyer to advise you of the situation. If they are not on the panel they may recommend you to a Romford conveyancing practice that is on the conveyancing panel for your mortgage company.
At what point will exchange of contracts happen for sale conveyancing in Romford and am I required to attend the conveyancers branch?
Where you are round the corner to one of the conveyancing solicitors in Romford you are invited in to sign contracts. However, the law practices we recommend provide a countrywide conveyancing service and provide just as comprehensive and professional a job for you when communicating with you electronically. The signing of the contract is not when everything is set in stone. A signed contract is necessary for the conveyancer to officially exchange when the time is right, which is ordinarily shortly after signing. The exchange process is is usually a five minute process, although where a lengthy "chain" is in the mix, since the process requires the relevant party's solicitor (not necessarily a conveyancing solicitor in Romford)to be in the office at the appropriate time.

We are planning to move property in November. Should my conveyancing solicitor update the removal company on the day of completion. Incidentally, can you put forward a removal company in Romford. Conveyancing solicitor was organised prior to coming across this site.
On the afternoon of completion you can pick up the house keys from the estate agent but this should only take place after the previous owners conveyancers confirm to the agent that the monies to complete are in and the keys can be collected. After that you should advise the removal men that they can start moving you in. We do not suggest a particular removal organisation but can help you find a conveyancing in Romford or a legal practice that specialises in conveyancing in Romford.
I happen to be the single recipient of my late grandmother’s estate with all property in now in my sole name, including the house in Romford. Conveyancing formalities meant that the Land Registry date was in August. I plan to dispose of the house. I do know about the CML six month 'rule', meaning my proprietorship may be considered the same way as if I'd bought the property in August. Is the property unsalable for six months?
The CML handbook mandates conveyancers to: "report to us immediately if the owner or registered proprietor has been registered for less than six months." By the strict wording you could be impacted by that. How practical a view mortgage companies take of it, depend on the bank as this provision is primarily there to identify the purchase and immediately sell or the wholesaling and assigning of properties.
I am buying my first flat in Romford benefiting from help to buy. The developers would not reduce the amount so I negotiated £7000 of additionals instead. The sale representative advised me not disclose to my lawyer about the side-deal as it would adversely affect my mortgage with the lender. 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.
