I am planning to move property in December. Should my conveyancing solicitor communicate with the removal company on the day of completion. As an aside, can you suggest a removal company in Stoke Sub Hamdon. Conveyancing solicitor was chosen prior to coming across this page.

After that you will need to tell the removal men that they can start moving you in. As a matter of policy we do not suggest a particular removal company but can help you find a residential property solicitor in Stoke Sub Hamdon or a lawyer that specialises in conveyancing in Stoke Sub Hamdon.
We have agreed to purchase a house in Stoke Sub Hamdon. A rare aspect is that the roof has a solar panel. Principality have issued a mortgage offer so presumably this is not a concern to them. Why is my solicitor raising questions about the panel?
As your lender is Principality your lawyer must comply with the formal instructions outlined in Section 2 of UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook for Principality. The Council of Mortgage Lenders’ Handbook stipulates minimum specifications for solar panel roof-space leases, and lawyers are required to report to Principality where a lease fails to meet these specifications. The specifications relate to the installation of panels on properties nationwide and is not restricted to Stoke Sub Hamdon.

4 months have elapsed since my purchase conveyancing in Stoke Sub Hamdon concluded. I have checked the Land Registry site which shows that I paid £150,000 when infact I paid £170,000. Why the discrepancy?
The price paid figure is taken from the application to register the purchase. It is the figure included in the Transfer (the legal deed which transfers the asset from one person to the other) and referred to as the 'consideration' or purchase price. You can report an error in the price paid figure using the LR online form. In most cases errors result from typos so at first glance the figure. Do report it so they can double check and advise.

I am buying a garden maisonette in Stoke Sub Hamdon. Conveyancing solicitor has been awaiting, from the seller, building insurance documents.
