Is the fact that my conveyancer in Tremeirchion is not listed on my mortgage company's solicitor panel that there is a problem with the quality of the firm’s conveyancing?
That is more than likely an incorrect assumption to make. There are plenty of plausible explanations. Just recently a 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) 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 Tremeirchion conveyancing firm and enquire why they are no longer on the approved list for your mortgage company.
It is is a decade since I bought my property in Tremeirchion. Conveyancing lawyers have now been retained on the sale but I am unable to track down the title deeds. Will this cause complications?
You need not be too concerned. First there is a chance that the deeds will be with the mortgage company or they may still be with the conveyancers who handled the purchase. Secondly the likelihood is that the title will be registered at the land registry and you will be able to prove you are the registered owner by your conveyancing solicitors procuring current official copies of the land registers. Almost all conveyancing in Tremeirchion involves registered property but in the unlikely event that your property is not registered it adds to the complexity but is not insurmountable.
