We have very brash vendors who has suggested a preliminary contract with a non-refundable deposit 10k. Are such agreements generally advanced for Warfield conveyancing transactions?
There are a couple of main drawbacks with executing a lock out agreement (also referred to as a shut-out contract) is that it diverts attention away from progressing with the conveyancing work, so unless it requires minimal or no negotiation then it may turn out to be unhelpful. It is not strongly advocated by Warfield conveyancing lawyers as a result. A further issue is the extent of the remedies available - an aggrieved purchaser is not likely to obtain injunctive relief to prohibit the vendor selling to an alternative purchaser, so the only remedy available under the agreement will be the reimbursement of abortive costs and, in restricted situations, the additional payment of damages.

We wanted to use a conveyancing solicitor in Warfield for our home move. Our broker has since advised us that our bank Norwich and Peterborough Building Society won't deal with them. Why is this not regarded as unfair competition?
Banks in the main restrict either the category or the number of conveyancing firms on their panel. Typical examples of such restriction(s) being that a firm must not be a sole practitioner. As well as restricting the profile of firm, some have reduced the amount of solicitor practices they use to represent them. Be aware that Norwich and Peterborough Building Society have no responsibility for the quality of advice provided by any member of Norwich and Peterborough Building Society Conveyancer Panel. Mortgage fraud was a primary driver in the reduction of conveyancing panels since 2008 even though there are differing views regarding the extent of solicitor engagement in some of that fraud. Data from the Land Registry reveal that thousands of law firms, including some in or near Warfield only carry out very few conveyances a year.
My bid for a property was accepted at auction in Warfield. Conveyancing is required. What happens now?
Having exchanged you now have to find a conveyancing lawyer as a matter of urgency as you are facing a fast approaching deadline in which to complete the deal. Every auction property should have an associated legal pack. This will likely include the copy title deeds, local authority and drainage searches. Where you are dealing with leasehold premises the legal pack should provide a copy of the lease, management information and a sellers leasehold information form and associated conveyancing paperwork specific to leasehold premises. You should give this to your appointed conveyancing solicitor ASAP. Do make sure that that you have the requisite funding in order to complete the transaction on the set completion date.
We are planning to move property in July. Does my conveyancing solicitor update the removal company on the completion day. As an aside, can you put forward a removal company in Warfield. Conveyancing firm was chosen prior to coming across your website.
On the afternoon of completion you will need to collect the house keys from your property agent but this should only happen when the previous owners conveyancers advise the agent that they have the completion monies and the keys can be passed over. You should tell the removal men that they can start moving you in. We do not recommend a specific removal organisation but can assist you in locating a residential property solicitor in Warfield or a firm that specialises in conveyancing in Warfield.
I have paid off my mortgage with TSB. I assume I don't need a Warfield conveyancing practitioner on the TSB panel to discharge the mortgage at the Land Registry. Please confirm.
If you have finished paying off your TSB 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 TSB mortgage from the register. TSB, 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:
- but are not moving to another property
- where TSB has sent the Land Registry the discharge electronically, and
- TSB has instructed the Land Registry to do so
