I am assisting my sister sell her property in Lostwithiel. Does the solicitor order an energy assessment or it is for me to coordinate?

Following the demise of HIPs, energy performance certificates became a required part of selling a property. An EPC must be to hand in advance of the property being advertised. This is not something that conveyancers normally organise. If you are using a Lostwithiel conveyancing solicitor they might help arrange EPC’s given their contacts with reputable local assessors

Can you help - my lawyer advises that lack of right of way insurance is required on my purchase. What is the typical level of cover needed for conveyancing in Lostwithiel?

The right level of lack of right of way indemnity insurance depends on your lender. It would differ for example between Lloyds TSB Bank and Skipton Building Society. Conveyancing practitioners as opposed to borrowers take out such policies.

My offer was accepted on a house in Lostwithiel on 2/9/2024, valuation was booked five days after, all came back fine. Solicitor retained, so all that was missing was my mortgage offer. Having made daily calls to Bank of Ireland and chasing them on my offer, I have now been told that my offer will not be issued unless the lawyer is on the Bank of Ireland conveyancing panel. Can the lender hold off the offer?

A lender would not issue an offer until they have details of a lawyer on their panel. It can take a few weeks for Bank of Ireland to deal with your lawyer's application to be on the Bank of Ireland conveyancing panel. There's no guarantee that your solicitor will be accepted.
