How up to date is your database of Aylesbury solicitors on the HSBC conveyancing panel? Do HSBC send you an updated list?
Aylesbury conveyancing firms themselves provide us confirmation that they are on the HSBC conveyancing panel as opposed to being supplied with a list from HSBC directly.
The Aylesbury conveyancing firm that I recently instructed on my house acquisition in Aylesbury have suddenly closed. I only went with them because I had to have a lawyer on the Co-operative conveyancing panel and my previous Aylesbury lawyer was not. I wrote them a cheque for £250 in advance. What are my options?
Assuming that you have an Estate Agent in the equation then inform them immediately so that they can let the sellers know that there may be a slight delay due to the problems encountered. Hopefully they will be sympathetic and urge their lawyer to send a new set of papers to your new solicitors. You should appoint new lawyers that are on the Co-operative conveyancing panel and notify the lender. If you have paid over any money, it will hopefully be held by the SRA as money in an intervened firm's bank accounts is transferred to the SRA. Then, the SRA or the intervention agent looks at the intervened firm's accounts to work out who the money belongs to. To claim your money you will need to contact the SRA. If the SRA cannot return money you are owed from the firm's bank accounts, or if they can only return part of the money, you can apply to the Compensation Fund for a grant. Your new lawyers should be in a position to help.
I need some quick conveyancing in Aylesbury as I have pressure to sign on the dotted line inside 2 weeks. Thankfully I do not require a mortgage. Is it possible to escape the need for conveyancing searches to save fees and time?

I need to appoint a conveyancing solicitor for sale conveyancing in Aylesbury. I have land on a web site which seems to have the ideal offering If there is a chance to get all formalities done via web that would be preferable. Do I need to be wary? What are the potential pitfalls?
As usual with these online conveyancers you need to read ALL the small print - did you notice the extra charge for dealing with the mortgage?
My wife and I have AIP from Accord Mortgages Ltd who suggested we could borrow up to £300k. At what point do we need to appoint a solicitor for conveyancing? Aylesbury is where we plan to move to.
It would be wise to appoint a conveyancer now and ask them to generate a file on your behalf. This will enable: 1) the estate agent to send out the Sales Memorandum to all parties 2) the seller’s solicitor to send out the draft paperwork. However, do not instruct your conveyancing practitioner to order searches until you receive your valuation report via Accord Mortgages Ltd and you are willing to proceed.
