Am I correct in assuming that the fact that my conveyancer in Saffron Walden is not on my bank's solicitor panel that there is a problem with the quality of his work?
That is most likely an incorrect assumption to make. There are all sorts of perfectly reasonable explanations. A recent report by the solicitors regulator indicated 76% of law firms surveyed had been removed from at least one lender panel. The most common reasons for removal are: (1) lack 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. Where you are concerned you should simply call the Saffron Walden conveyancing firm and ask them why they are no longer on the approved list for your mortgage company.

I completed on my flat on 16 November and my personal details are still not registered. Need I be worried? My conveyancing solicitor in Saffron Walden expressed confidence that it should be concluded in a couple of weeks. Are titles in Saffron Walden uniquely lengthy to register?
As far as conveyancing in Saffron Walden is concerned, registration is no quicker or slower than the rest of England and Wales. As opposed to being determined by geographic area, timeframes can adjust depending on who lodges the application, whether it is in order and if the Land registry communicate with any third parties. At present roughly 80% of such applications are completed in less than three weeks but occasionally there can be extensive hold-ups. Historically registration is effected once the purchaser is living at the premises therefore registration formalities is not usually an essential issue but if there is a degree of urgency associated with the registration then you or your conveyancer could speak with the land registry and explain the circumstances.
I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold element on a property I put an offer in a fortnight ago in what was supposed to be a quick, no chain conveyancing. Saffron Walden is where the house is located. Can you offer any assistance?
Flying freeholds in Saffron Walden are unusual but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even though you don't necessarily need a conveyancing solicitor in Saffron Walden you would need to get your solicitor to go through the deeds diligently. Your lender may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Saffron Walden 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 property.
There are plenty of properties in Saffron Walden on private roads. We are acquiring one such property. Are there any advantages to purchasing a residence on a private road?
Saffron Walden conveyancing firms will be well versed in transacting propertieson private. The property lawyer should review the title to identify any rights or liabilities. In many cases there is a management company (wholly owned by residents) that proprietors pay into to maintain the road. Where there is one, the road should be maintained and look nicer than publicly maintained.
