My IFA says he needs my Strawberry Hill law firm’s panel reference for the HSBC conveyancing panel. How do I discover this. I have called my local Strawberry Hill office but they have not got back to me yet.
You are best placed to get this information from your Strawberry Hill conveyancing practitioner . Most Strawberry Hill conveyancing firms will keep a file or database of lender panel information which would include, if applicable, their conveyancing panel details for each bank.
Me and my partner are about to complete on the purchase of a property in Strawberry Hill but as a consequence of wreckage from a small fire at the property I have managed to agree recompense from the current proprietors in the sum of three thousand pounds taking the form of a adjustment in the price. I had intended this to be addressed as part of the conveyancing process but Clydesdale are not allowing this. Why were they informed?
Your solicitor being on a Clydesdale conveyancing panel is duty bound to advise Clydesdale of any amendments to the sale price. If you prohibit your conveyancer to report the price change to Clydesdale then they would have to discontinue acting for you. In addition, Clydesdale and you would have to appoint a new conveyancing practitioner for your conveyancing in Strawberry Hill.
What is your number one tip for finding a conveyancing solicitor in Strawberry Hill
It would be unwise to be swayed by the lowest Strawberry Hill conveyancing fees. You really do get what you’re paying for when it comes to property lawyers. A cheap quote may mean that the conveyancing solicitor is handling a lot of jobs at one time and you won’t get the quality of service and the attention that you need. It is, however, wise to use a conveyancer who has a fixed fee on a no sale, no fee basis. This way, you go into the conveyancing with your eyes wide open.
What is the difference between a licensed conveyancer and conveyancing solicitor in Strawberry Hill

I am expecting a DIP from Kent Reliance this week so we know how much we could potentially offer as otherwise we are dependent on web based calculators (which aren't taking into account credit checks etc). Do Kent Reliance recommend any Strawberry Hill solicitors on the Kent Reliance conveyancing panel, or is it better to go independently?
You will need to appoint Strawberry Hill solicitors independently although you'll need to choose one on the Kent Reliance conveyancing panel. The solicitor represents both you and Kent Reliance through the process.
Just had an offer accepted on a new build flat in Strawberry Hill. Conveyancing is a frightening process at the best of times but I have never purchased a new build flat before. Can you give me some examples of some of the questions asked in new build legal work.
Here is a sample of a selection of leasehold new build questions that you can expect your new-build leasehold conveyancing in Strawberry Hill
-
The Lease must contain a provision on behalf of the Vendor to pay the service charges in respect of unoccupied units in order to ensure that all services can be provided. There must be mutual enforceability of lessee’s covenants. Please confirm the Lease plans are surveyor prepared. Will the freehold then be transferred for a nominal consideration (not exceeding £100) to the Management Company?
We're FTB’s - had an offer accepted, yet the estate agent told us that the seller will only issue a contract if we use their recommended conveyancers as they are insisting on an ‘expedited deal’. Our preferred option is to instruct a local solicitor with experience of conveyancing in Strawberry Hill
It is highly unlikely the sellers are behind this. If they want ‘a quick sale', turning down a genuine purchaser is going to damage their objectives. Bypass the agents and go straight to the owners and make the point that (a)you are motivated purchasers (b)you are ready to go, with finances arranged © you do not need to sell (d) you intend to proceed fast (e)but you are going to instruct your own,trusted Strawberry Hill conveyancing firm - as opposed tothe ones that will earn the estate agent a kickback or meet his conveyancing figures pre-set by head office.
