Am I correct in assuming that the fact that my conveyancer in Stalham is not listed on my bank's solicitor panel that there is a problem with the quality of the firm’s conveyancing?
That would more than likely be an incorrect assumption to make. There are plenty of plausible explanations. A recent report by the solicitors regulator revealed 76% of law firms surveyed had been removed from at least one lender panel. The top 5 reasons are as follows: (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. Should you be concerned you should contact the Stalham conveyancing firm and ask them why they are no longer on the approved list for your mortgage company.

We are selling our house in Stalham. Does the solicitor need to be required to be on the Yorkshire BS conveyancing panel in order to deal with paying off my mortgage?
Ordinarily, even if your lawyer is not on the Yorkshire BS conveyancing panel they can still act for you on your sale. It might be that the lender will not release the original deeds (if applicable and increasingly irrelevant) until after the mortgage is paid off. You should speak to your lawyer directly before you start the process though to ensure that there is no problem as lenders are changing their specifications fairly frequently currently.

My husband and I are FTB’s - had an offer accepted, yet the selling agent advised that the vendor will only move forward if we appoint the agent's chosen conveyancers as they need an ‘expedited deal’. My instinct tells me that we should use a high street solicitor with experience of conveyancing in Stalham
We suspect that the owner is not behind this ultimatum. Should the seller require ‘a quick sale', turning down a motivated buyer is not the way to achieve this. Contact the owners directly and make the point that (a)you are motivated purchasers (b)you are ready to progress, with finances arranged © you are unencumbered (d) you wish to move quickly (e)however you are going to instruct your own,trusted Stalham conveyancing firm - not the ones that will provide the estate agent a referral fee or achieve conveyancing targets pre-set by head office.
I am on look out for some leasehold conveyancing in Stalham. Before diving in I would like to find out the unexpired term of the lease.
Assuming the lease is registered - and most are in Stalham - then the leasehold title will always include the short particulars of the lease, namely the date; the term; and the original parties. From a conveyancing perspective such details then enable any prospective buyer and lender to confirm that any lease they are looking at is the one relevant to that title. For any other purpose, such as confirming how long the term was granted for and calculating what is left, then the register should be sufficient on it's own.
