I have given 8 weeks notice to my existing landlord and must vacate my let out property in Kingswinford by the end of next month. Conveyancing for my house purchase is progressing. Is it possible to complete in six weeks as don't want to have to find short term accommodation?
Generally one should not give notice for your lease unless you have exchanged. Assuming that you have not previously done so, notify to your solicitor and request that they apply pressure on the other lawyers, try to an acceptable time-line that everyone will look to achieve

Our preferred option is to instruct a family conveyancer used to conveyancing in Kingswinford
It is improbable the owners are behind this. If they require ‘a quick sale', taking such a hostile approach to a motivated buyer is going to damage their objectives. Contact the sellers directly and make sure they comprehend that (a)you are keen to buy (b)you are excited to move forward, with mortgage lined up © you have nothing to sell (d) you intend to proceed fast (e)however you are going to instruct your own,trusted Kingswinford conveyancing lawyers - as opposed tothe ones that will earn the negotiator at the agency a referral fee or hit his conveyancing figures demanded by HQ.
My 20yr old son is just in the process of moving home, he had his mortgage in principle. After the offer was accepted on flat we called the mortgage institution to progress the mortgage application. I was disappointed to discover that mortgage companies do not accept all property lawyer, they have to be on a list, is this right?
Lenders normally restrict either the type or the number of conveyancing practices on their panel. A common example of such restriction(s) being that a firm must have two or more partners. In addition to restricting the type of firm, some have decided to limit the number of firms they use to represent them. You should note that lenders have no responsibility for the quality of advice provided by any Kingswinford solicitor on their panel. Mortgage fraud was a key driver in the rationalisation of conveyancing panels a few years ago and whilst there are differing views about the extent of solicitor involvement in some of that fraud. Statistics from the Land Registry reveal that thousands of law firms only carry out one or two conveyances a year. Those supporting conveyancing panel cuts ask why law firms should have the right to be on a Lender panel when clearly, conveyancing is not their speciality. To put it another way; would you want a conveyancing solicitor to represent you if you were charged with a crime? Probably not.
