Two weeks ago we had a mortgage agreed in principle with Bank of Ireland. Royton conveyancing practitioners were instructed. How long does it take for Bank of Ireland to forward the offer to the lawyer?

There is no definitive answer here. Have Bank of Ireland completed the survey? Have you advised Bank of Ireland as to your lawyers' details and checked that your lawyers are on the Bank of Ireland conveyancing panel? It is not unusual for a mortgage offer to take a month to come through.

After shopping around on the internet I have found a Royton lawyer having checked that they are on the HSBC conveyancing panel. Does my lawyer arrange the survey of the property?

HSBC will need an independent valuation of the property. Your lawyer will not arrange this. Usually HSBC will appoint their own surveyor to do this, and you will have to pay for it. Remember that this is a valuation for mortgage purposes and not a survey. You may wish to consider appointing your own Royton surveyor to carry out a survey or prepare a home buyers report on the property. It is up to you to satisfy yourself that the property is structurally sound before you buy it. If the survey or report reveals that building work is needed, you should tell your solicitor. You may wish to renegotiate with the seller.

I have todaydiscovered that Arc property Solicitors have been shut down. They conducted my conveyancing in Royton for a purchase of a leasehold apartment 12 months ago. How can I establish that my home is registered correctly in the name of the former proprietor?
