I am expecting a mortgage with Nat West. I intend to instruct a Licensed Conveyancer in Cherry Burton. Does the Nat West Conveyancing panel allow for conveyancers regulated by the CLC?
The Nat West conveyancing panel is, like many other lenders, represented by the Council or Mortgage Lenders or BSA, open to Licensed Conveyancers regulated by the CLC.
Do I need to have a meeting at the offices of the solicitor to execute the mortgage deed? If so, I will choose one who does conveyancing in Cherry Burton so that I can attend their offices when needed.
As opposed to 15 years ago, almost all lenders no longer oblige their conveyancing panel lawyer to witness the borrowers signature. You will still be obliged to provide identification documents and there are still manifest benefits to choosing a local practitioner, in your case a conveyancing solicitor in Cherry Burton.
I am looking for a flat up to £305k and found one round the corner in Cherry Burton I like with a park and railway links in the vicinity, however it only has 51 remaining years left on the lease. There is not much else in Cherry Burton for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error purchasing a lease with such few years left?
If you require a mortgage the shortness of the lease may be a potential deal breaker. Reduce the price by the expected lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the existing owner has owned the property for a minimum of twenty four months you may ask them to commence the lease extension formalities and pass it to you. You can add 90 years to the current lease with a zero ground rent applied. You should consult your conveyancing lawyer concerning this matter.
What tools are available to identify a Cherry Burton law firm on the Birmingham Midshires conveyancing panel? I drive a motor bike and am willing to travel upto 10kilometers to meet the solicitor.
Feel free to make use of the tool on this website. Please select a lender and your location and you will see a number of Cherry Burton conveyancing lawyers based on proximity.

I am in the process of buying my first house in Cherry Burton. Conveyancing practitioner has been chosen. The financial consultant advised that a survey is not needed as the house was only constructed in 1997.
The bare minimum you need a Home Buyer's Report. As the property is more than 10 years old the property will not come with a warranty, so you would be well advised not to take a risk. For a property that age with no signs of problems a Home Buyer's report may be enough. They will highlight any apparent issues and recommend additional investigation where relevant. Where there are any signs of problems obtain a full structural survey.
