My husband and I are hoping to acquire a 2 bedroom apartment in Holmrook with a mortgage. We have a Holmrook lawyer, however the mortgage company advise she’s not on their "panel". It appears that we have no option but to select one of the mortgage company panel conveyancing practices or retain our Holmrook conveyancing practitioner as well as pay for one of their panel firms to act for them. This feels very unfair; can we not insist that the bank use our Holmrook solicitor ?
Unfortunately,no. The mortgage offered to you is subject to its terms and conditions, one of which will be that lawyers will on the lender’s conveyancing panel. Until recently, most lenders had large numbers of law firms on their panels: a borrower could choose one for themselves, as long as it was on the lender's panel. The lender would then simply instruct the borrower's lawyers to act for the lender, too. You can use your lender's panel lawyers or you could borrow from another lender which does not restrict your choice. A further alternative is for your Holmrook conveyancing lawyer to apply to be on the conveyancing panel.
My father pointed out to me me that in purchasing a property in Holmrook there could be a number of restrictions prohibiting external alterations to the property. Is this right?

I am aiming to move home in October. Will my conveyancing solicitor communicate with the removal company on the completion day. On a separate note, can you suggest a removal company in Holmrook. Conveyancing firm was found before I stumbled across your site.
On the afternoon of completion you can pick up the house keys from the property agent but this can only take place when the vendors conveyancers advise the agent that they acknowledge receipt of the completion payment and the keys can be collected. Subsequently you will need to inform the removal men that you are ready to move in. As a matter of policy we do not recommend a specific removal organisation but can help you locate a conveyancing in Holmrook or a solicitor with expertise in conveyancing in Holmrook.
About to purchase apartment in Holmrook. I have received an online quote from a licenced conveyancer, which states: "There will be no charge for dealing with the Building Society if you are obtaining a mortgage". I take this to mean that there will be no additional fee if the solicitor is on the Clydesdale conveyancing panel. I wanted to make sure it means there will be no additional fees for dealing with the mortgage.
They are simply saying that the cost for acting for the lender is included in the fee being quoted. It is worth you checking that the Holmrook solicitor is on the Clydesdale conveyancing panel.
I got the keys to my apartment on 2 February and my personal details are still not registered. Should I be concerned? My conveyancing solicitor in Holmrook advises it will be registered in a couple of weeks. Are titles in Holmrook uniquely lengthy to register?
There is nothing unique about conveyancing in Holmrook registration formalities. As opposed to being determined by geographic area, timescales can vary depending on who lodges the application, whether there are errors and whether the Land registry need to notify any interested parties. Currently in the region of 80% of submission are fully dealt with within 12 days but occasionally there can be protracted hold-ups. Historically registration takes place after the buyer has moved in to the property so an expedited registration is not typically primary concern but where it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your conveyancer can communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for an expedited registration.
How does conveyancing in Holmrook differ for new build properties?
Most buyers of new build premises in Holmrook come to us having been asked by the builder to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the residence is ready to move into. This is because developers in Holmrook tend to acquire the site, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct property lawyers as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are accustomed to new build conveyancing in Holmrook or who has acted in the same development.
