My mortgage broker has asked me for my Hainault law firm’s panel reference for the HSBC conveyancing panel. How do I find this out. I have e-mailed my local Hainault branch but they don't know it.

There is nothing unique when it comes to conveyancing in Hainault registration formalities. Rather than based on location, timeframes can vary subject to who lodges the application, whether it is in order and if the Land registry need to notify any 3rd parties. As of today roughly 80% of such applications are completed within 12 days but some can be subject to extensive delays. Historically registration takes place after the new owner is living at the premises so post completion formalities is not typically an essential issue yet where it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your solicitor must communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for an expedited registration.

Investor purchasers must be able to freely grant unsecured tenancies at market rents without requiring any consents. Where service of notices and proceedings can be at the property demised please confirm that this can be amended to include simultaneous services at the Lessees’ solicitors’ offices where the Lessee from time to time is not resident in the UK - such solicitors may be varied by notice in writing to the Landlord from time to time but otherwise will be as previously specified. Has the Lease plan been approved by the Land Registry and if not when will they be lodged for this purpose? Where there is an Undertaking being granted there is the risk of forfeiture of the Headlease subject to relief if one or more of the Underlessees are willing to accept the original Head Lessee’s obligations as otherwise relief will be denied to the Underlessees. The only alternatives are the Head Lessor agreeing not to forfeit the Headlease or the Head Lessee guaranteeing to the Underlessees that it will not be in breach of the Headlease. Forfeiture - bankruptcy or liquidation must not apply under this provision.
