Having sold my house in Bexley last March but my buyer keeps e-mailing every few hours to say her lawyer needs to hear from myconveyancer. What should have happened following completion?
Following your house sale your conveyancer should deliver the transfer deeds and all of the paperwork to the purchaser's conveyancer. Depending on the transaction, your conveyancer must also confirm that the legal charge in favour of the lender has been repaid to the buyers solicitors. There are no post completion requirements just for conveyancing in Bexley.

I am planning to move house in October. Should my conveyancing solicitor update the removal company on the completion day. Incidentally, can you put forward a removal company in Bexley. Conveyancing lawyer was found prior to coming across your website.
On the afternoon of completion you will need to pick up the house keys from your property agent however this should only take place when the previous owners lawyers advise the agent that they acknowledge receipt of the completion payment and the keys can be released. After that you will need to advise the removal men that you are ready to move in. We are not in a position to suggest a particular removal company but can help you find a residential property solicitor in Bexley or a solicitor with expertise in conveyancing in Bexley.
I am due to exchange contracts on my flat. I had a double glazing fitted in April 2008, but did not receive a FENSA certificate or Building Regulation Certificate. My buyer's mortgage company, TSB are being a right pain. The Bexley solicitor who is on the TSB conveyancing panel is saying indemnity insurance will be fine but TSB are requiring a building regulation certificate. Why do TSB have a conveyancing panel if they don't accept advice from them?
It is probably the case that TSB have referred the matter to their valuer. The reason why TSB 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.
What can a local search inform me regarding the house I am purchasing in Bexley?

I have justfound out that Wolstenholmes have closed. They conducted my conveyancing in Bexley for a purchase of a leasehold apartment 10 months ago. How can I be sure that my home is not still registered in the name of the previous owner?
The easiest method to see if the premises is in your name, you can make a search of the land registry (£3.00). You can either do this yourself or ask a law firm to do this for you. If you are not registered you can seek help from one of a number of Bexley conveyancing specialists.
I previously told by my bank that their approved conveyancers operate no sale no charge basis for conveyancing in Bexley. I had a purchase fall through yet the lawyers have invoiced for search fees! They say the fees are seperate!
in offering "no sale no fee" Bexley conveyancing practices are foregoing their fees for any work conducted. We must stress this is NOT an insurance scheme. Disbursements aren’t covered – where the property lawyer have to pay money out to independent parties, for example Bexley local search fees
