This is not something that conveyancers normally arrange. If you are using a Norfolk Broads conveyancing lawyer they may help arrange energy assessments due to their relationships with reputable Norfolk Broads assessors

After weeks of negotiation I have agreed a price on a house in Norfolk Broads. My mortgage broker recommended their conveyancers. I paid an upfront payment of £150. A few days later, the conveyancing practitioner called me embarrassingly acknowledging that they were not on the Co-operative conveyancing panel. Am I right in thinking that I should be due a refund?
You should be able to recover this from the law firm if they were not on the Co-operative panel. They should have asked at the outset which lender you were obtaining a mortgage with. An important lesson to readers of this site is to check that the lawyers are on the appropriate lender panel.
My wife and I have a semi-detached Georgian house in Norfolk Broads. Conveyancing solicitor acted for me and Skipton Building Society. I did a free Land Registry search last week and I saw two entries: one for freehold, another for leasehold under the matching address. I'd like to know for sure, how can I find out??
You should read the Freehold register you have again and check the Charges Register as there may be mention of a lease. The best way to be sure that you are also the registered owner of the leasehold and freehold title as well is to check (£3). It is not completely unheard of in Norfolk Broads and other locations in the country and poses no real issues for owners other than when they sell they have to account for both freehold and leasehold interests when dealing with lenders. You can also question the position with your conveyancing practitioner who conducted the purchase.
