Am I correct in assuming that the fact that my solicitor in Rusholm is not on my mortgage company's conveyancing panel that there is a problem with the quality of his work?
It would not be wise to jump to that conclusion. There are plenty of plausible explanations. Just recently a 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) 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 contact the Rusholm conveyancing firm and enquire why they are no longer on the approved list for your mortgage company.
Last May we completed a house move in Rusholm. We have since encountered a number of problems with the property which we suspect were missed in the conveyancing searches. Is there anything we can do? What searches should? have been ordered as part of conveyancing in Rusholm?
It is not clear from the question as what problems have arisen and if they are relate to conveyancing in Rusholm. Conveyancing searches and investigations initiated as part of the buying process are designed to help avoid problems. As part of the process, a seller completes a questionnaire referred to as a SPIF. answers turns out to be incorrect, then you may have a claim against the vendor for any losses that you have suffered. The survey should have identified any problems with the structure of the property. Assuming a detailed survey was carried out and the issues were not identified, you may have a claim against the surveyor. However, if you did not have a full survey, you may be responsible for fixing any defects that have now been noted. We would always encourage buyers to take every possible step to ensure they are completely aware of the condition of a property before purchase regardless of whether they are buying in Rusholm.

I am buying my first flat in Rusholm with the aid of help to buy. The sellers would not budge the price so I negotiated five thousand pounds worth of fixtures and fittings instead. The property agent told me not disclose to my conveyancer about the side-deal as it could put at risk my mortgage with the bank. Do I keep my lawyer in the dark?.
All lenders require a Disclosure of Incentives Form from the builder 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.
