Is the fact that my conveyancer in Morganstown is not identified on my bank's solicitor panel that there is a problem with the standard of her work?

That is more than likely an incorrect assumption to make. There are plenty of plausible explanations. Just recently a report by the solicitors regulator indicated that over three quarters of law firms surveyed had been removed from at least one lender panel. The most common reasons for removal are: (1) low volume of transactions (2) the solicitor is a sole practitioner (3) as part of the HSBC panel reduction (4) regulatory contact by SRA (5) accidental removal. Should you be concerned you should simply call the Morganstown conveyancing firm and ask them why they are no longer on the approved list for your mortgage company.

Have just purchased a probate house at auction in Morganstown. Conveyancing is required. What are my next steps?

Having exchanged you should choose a conveyancing solicitor soon as you will have a tight deadline in which to complete the deal.

In the case of leasehold property the auction papers may provide a copy of the lease, management information and a sellers leasehold information form and associated conveyancing paperwork specific to leasehold premises. You need to pass this on to the lawyer working for you as soon as possible. Do make sure that your finances are organised to complete on the on the contractual date .

I have today made my last payment due on my mortgage with RBS. I assume I don't need a Morganstown conveyancing practitioner on the RBS panel to remove the mortgage at the Land Registry. Am I right?

If you have finished paying off your RBS mortgage, they may send you evidence showing that you have paid it off. Alternatively they may notify the Land Registry directly. The Land Registry need to see this evidence before they will remove the RBS mortgage from the register. RBS, and any evidence they send you, will determine the action you need to take. In cases where no conveyancer is acting for you and you have paid off your mortgage:

1. but are not moving to another property
2. where RBS has sent the Land Registry the discharge electronically, and
3. RBS has instructed the Land Registry to do so

Is this a legitimate concern for conveyancing in Morganstown?

Unless a previous acquisition of the premises took place post 12 October 2013 you can expect solicitors conducting conveyancing in Morganstown to remain encouraging a chancel search and or chancel repair liability insurance.

I am on look out for some leasehold conveyancing in Morganstown. Before I get started I would like to find out the remaining lease term.

Assuming the lease is registered - and almost all are in Morganstown - then the leasehold title will always include the short particulars of the lease, namely the date; the term; and the original parties. From a conveyancing perspective such details then enable any prospective buyer and lender to confirm that any lease they are looking at is the one relevant to that title. For any other purpose, such as confirming how long the term was granted for and calculating what is left, then the register should be sufficient on it's own.
