I am not in a position to travel far from Harrow. Can you please spell out why all Harrow property lawyers aren't included on all lender panels?
Even though it may seem unfair for banks to limit who can act for them, from the public’s or solicitor’s standpoint, the other side of the coin is that banks are increasingly anxious and regard it necessary to protect them against illegal activities. As a result of this concern mortgage companies are limiting their conveyancing panel to a size that they are happy to control.

I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold element on a property I have offered on two weeks back in what was supposed to be a quick, chain free conveyancing. Harrow is where the house is located. Is there any advice you can impart?
Flying freeholds in Harrow are not the norm but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even though you don't necessarily need a conveyancing solicitor in Harrow you must be sure that your lawyer goes 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 Harrow 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 premises.
