My apartment in Aylestone is up for sale and I have a purchaser. Will the have to be required to be on the conveyancing panel in order to deal with the discharge of my mortgage?

Ordinarily, even if your lawyer is not on the conveyancing panel they can still act for you on your sale. It might be that the lender will not release the original deeds (if applicable and increasingly irrelevant) until after the mortgage is paid off. You should speak to your lawyer directly before you start the process though to ensure that there is no problem as lenders are changing their panel criteria fairly frequently at the moment.

I have been advised by my lawyer that restrictive coveneant insurance is needed on my purchase. What is the typical level of cover needed for conveyancing in Aylestone?

The right level of restrictive coveneant indemnity insurance should be dictated by who your lender. It would differ for example between and . Conveyancing lawyers as opposed to members of the public take out such insurances.

Are all Aylestone Conveyancing Quality Solicitors on the conveyancing list of approved practices?

Some major banks and building societies now utilise the accreditation scheme as the starting point for Panel approval such as HSBC and Santander. CQS accreditation however gives no guarantee to lender panel acceptance. That being said,the CML have indicated that it is likely to become a pre-requisite for solicitor practices wishing to remain on their approved list of conveyancing solicitors.

I am selling my flat. I had a double glazing fitted in October 2006, but did not receive a FENSA certificate or Building Regulation Certificate. My buyer's lender, are being difficult. The Aylestone solicitor who is on the conveyancing panel is saying indemnity insurance will be fine but are insisting on a building regulation certificate. Why do have a conveyancing panel if they don't accept advice from them?

It is probably the case that have referred the matter to their valuer. The reason why may not want to accept indemnity insurance is because it does not give them any reassurance that the double glazing was correctly and safely installed. The indemnity insurance merely protects against enforcement action which is very unlikely anyway.

We are downsizing from our house in Aylestone and the buyers lawyers are claiming that there is a possibility that the property was constructed land that was not decontaminated. A local lawyer would know that there is no such problem. For the life of me I don't know why the buyers are using a web based conveyancing practice rather than a conveyancing solicitor in Aylestone. Having lived in Aylestone for many years we know of no issue. Should we contact our local Authority to get confirmation need.

It sounds as though you may have a conveyancing solicitor already. Are they able to advise? You need to enquire of your lawyer before you do anything. It is very possible that once the local authority has been informed of a potential issue it cannot be insured against (a bit like being diagnosed with a serious illness and then taking out life insurance to cover that same sickness)

The deeds to our property are lost. The lawyers who dealt with the conveyancing in Aylestone years ago no longer exist. What do I do?
