Some advice if I may. My Llanmartin conveyancer is informing me me that he has toorder Llanmartin conveyancing searches due to the fact thatthe firm are on the Lloydsapproved lawyer panel. These Llanmartin searches cost a lot of money can this be avoided?
You have limited options available to you. Given that you are taking out a loan with a lender your lawyer has to comply with their conditions as set out in their version of the CML Conveyancing Handbook. Your conveyancing practitioner would have previously signed the Terms and Conditions of your lender’s conveyancing panel appointment which obliges them to comply with the Council of Mortgage Lenders’ Handbook conditions . Even if you were a cash buyer you would be ill advised not to carry out Llanmartin conveyancing searches.
I am close to exchanging contracts on the sale of our property in Llanmartin and according to the buyers it appears that there is a possibility that the property was built land that was not decontaminated. Any high street Llanmartin lawyer would know that there is no such problem. For the life of me I don't know why the purchasers instructed a factory type conveyancing outfit rather than a conveyancing solicitor in Llanmartin. Having lived in Llanmartin for three years we know of no issue. Is it a good idea to contact our local Authority to seek confirmation that the buyers are looking for.
It sounds as though you may have a conveyancing solicitor currently acting for you. Are they able to advise? You must check with 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 health insurance to cover that same sickness)

The easiest way to see if the premises is in your name, you can carry out 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 Llanmartin conveyancing specialists.
