The Nuthall conveyancing firm that I appointed last week on my purchase in Nuthall have suddenly shut down. I only went with them because I needed a solicitor on the Virgin Money conveyancing panel and my family Nuthall lawyer was not. I paid them funds on account. What should be my next steps?

If you have an estate agent involved then inform them immediately so that they advise the vendors that there may be a slight delay due to the problems encountered. Most sellers would be sympathetic and urge their lawyer to send a new set of papers to your new solicitors. You will need to appoint new lawyers that are on the Virgin Money conveyancing panel and notify the lender. If you have paid over any money, it will hopefully be held by the SRA as money in an intervened firm's bank accounts is transferred to the SRA. Then, the SRA or the intervention agent looks at the intervened firm's accounts to work out who the money belongs to. To claim your money you will need to contact the SRA. If the SRA cannot return money you are owed from the firm's bank accounts, or if they can only return part of the money, you can apply to the Compensation Fund for a grant. Your new solicitors should be in a position to help.

Is it the case that all Nuthall solicitor practices on the Coventry BS conveyancing panel are regulated by the SRA?

As a firm of solicitors, in order to be on the Coventry BS conveyancing panel they would need to be overseen by the SRA. The majority of lenders do permit licenced conveyancers on their panel and in such a situation the organisation would be regulated by the CLC.

I am selling my flat. I had a double glazing fitted in July 2007, but did not receive a FENSA certificate or Building Regulation Certificate. My buyer's mortgage company, Virgin Money are being difficult. The Nuthall solicitor who is on the Virgin Money conveyancing panel is recommending indemnity insurance as a solution but Virgin Money are requiring a building regulation certificate. Why do Virgin Money have a conveyancing panel if they don't accept advice from them?

It is probably the case that Virgin Money have referred the matter to their valuer. The reason why Virgin Money may not want to accept indemnity insurance is because it does not give them any reassurance that the double glazing was correctly and safely installed. The indemnity insurance merely protects against enforcement action which is very unlikely anyway.

TSB have agreed my home loan in principle, my offer on a house in Nuthall has been accepted, now what?

Your property agent will want to be advised as to your conveyancing practitioner's details (ensure that the conveyancing practitioners are on the lender’s panel). Call up TSB or your broker and finish off any outstanding forms. TSB will sellect a valuer who will get in touch with the estate agent or seller to schedule an appointment. Once conducted (assuming no problems) it takes approximately a fortnight for the mortgage offer to be issued. TSB will issue the offer to you and your property lawyers. The legal work will then take it’s course according the nature and complexity of the conveyancing in Nuthall.

I have recentlybecome aware that Arc property Solicitors have been shut down. They conducted my conveyancing in Nuthall for a purchase of a leasehold apartment 18 months ago. How can I be sure that my home is registered correctly in the name of the previous owner?

The easiest method to check if the property is in your name, you can carry out a search of the land registry (£3.00). You can either do this yourself or ask a law firm to do this for you. If you are not registered you can seek help from one of a number of Nuthall conveyancing specialists.

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. Please confirm the Lease plans are architect prepared. Has the Lease plan been approved by the Land Registry and if not when will they be lodged for this purpose? Will the freehold then be transferred for a nominal consideration (not exceeding £100) to the Management Company? The Landlord must covenant to assume the management if the Management Company goes into liquidation or otherwise defaults in running the management scheme.
