I was informed today by my estate agent that my Tavistock lawyer is not on the bank Conveyancing panel. How can I check?

The best course of action for you to take is to contact your Tavistock lawyer directly. You lawyer should advise you what has happened. Where they are not on the panel they may be able to suggest a Tavistock conveyancing firm that is on the conveyancing panel for your bank.

Finally the sale completed on my house in Tavistock last July but my buyer keeps e-mailing me complaining that her lawyer needs to hear from mine. What should my lawyer have done following completion?

After completion of your house sale your solicitor should deliver the transfer documentation and all of the paperwork to the purchaser's lawyers. Where appropriate, your conveyancer should also evidence that the legal charge in favour of the lender has been repaid to the purchasers lawyers. There is unlikely to be post completion procedures specific conveyancing in Tavistock.

I require quick conveyancing in Tavistock as I have an ultimatum to exchange contracts inside one month. Luckily I do not require a mortgage. Can I decline from having conveyancing searches to save fees and time?

As you are not taking a mortgage you have the choice not to do searches although no conveyancer would suggest that you don't. With plenty of history conveyancing in Tavistock the following are examples of what can appear and therefore impact the marketability of the property: Refused Planning Applications, Outstanding Fees, Overdue Grants, Railway Schemes,...

I have been on the look out for a leasehold apartment up to £195,000 and identified one near me in Tavistock I like with a park and station in the vicinity, the downside is that it only has 52 years unexpired on the lease. There is not much else in Tavistock for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error buying a lease with such few years left?

Should you require a home loan the remaining unexpired lease term will be an issue. Reduce the offer by the anticipated lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the current owner has owned the property for a minimum of 2 years you can ask them to commence the lease extension formalities and then assign it to you. You can add 90 years to the current lease with a zero ground rent applied. You should consult your conveyancing lawyer about this.
