Am I correct in assuming that the fact that my conveyancer in Eel Pie Island is not on my bank's conveyancing panel that there is a problem with the standard of his work?
That would more than likely be an incorrect assumption to make. There are all sorts of perfectly plausible explanations. Just recently a report by the solicitors regulator indicated 76% 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 lawyer 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 Eel Pie Island conveyancing firm and ask them why they are no longer on the approved list for your mortgage company.

There is lots of here about conveyancing in Eel Pie Island but what is your top tip for selecting the right conveyancer in Eel Pie Island
Do not opt for the lowest Eel Pie Island conveyancing quote. You really do get what you’re paying for when it comes to property lawyers. A cheap quote may mean that the conveyancing solicitor is handling a lot of jobs at one time and you won’t get the quality of service and the attention that you need. It is, however, wise to use a conveyancer who has a fixed fee on a no sale, no fee basis. This way, you go into the conveyancing with your eyes wide open.
This question may be naive but I am new to the house moving as a 1st time purchaser of a garden flat in Eel Pie Island. Do I receive the keys to the property on the completion date from my solicitor? If so, I will instruct a local conveyancing solicitor in Eel Pie Island?
There is no need to visit the lawyers office on the day of completion. Your solicitors will electronically transfer the completion advance to the vendor’s conveyancers, and shortly after the monies have arrived, you will be called to pick up the keys from the property Agents and start moving into the property. Usually this happens early afternoon.
Two weeks ago we had a mortgage agreed in principle with Nottingham. Eel Pie Island conveyancing solicitors were instructed. How long does it take for Nottingham to send the offer to the solicitor?
Some lenders take longer than others. Have Nottingham conducted the valuation? Have you advised Nottingham as to your lawyers' details and checked that your lawyers are on the Nottingham conveyancing panel? Sometimes it can take as long as six weeks for a mortgage offer to be issued.

I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold issue on a property I put an offer in a fortnight ago in what was supposed to be a simple, no chain conveyancing. Eel Pie Island is where the house is located. What do you suggest?
Flying freeholds in Eel Pie Island are unusual but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Eel Pie Island you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds diligently. Your bank may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Eel Pie Island may decide that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold premises.
