I have just been advised by my estate agent that my Ormskirk solicitor is not on the bank Conveyancing panel. How can I be certain if this is indeed the case?
The first thing you need to do is to contact your Ormskirk lawyer directly. It is reasonable to expect your lawyer to notify you what has happened. Where they are not on the panel they may recommend you to a Ormskirk conveyancing firm that is on the conveyancing panel for your lender.
We are about to exchange on the purchase of a property in Ormskirk but as a result of damage from some water damage at the property I have managed to agree compensation from the seller in the sum of £2k by way of a reduction in the price. This was going to be dealt with as part of a side agreement but Principality will not agree to this. Why were they notified?
Any property lawyer that is on a Principality approved list is required to disclose to Principality of any changes to the purchase price. If you prohibit your conveyancer to notify the price change to Principality then they would have to discontinue acting for you. In addition, Principality and you would have to appoint a new lawyer for your conveyancing in Ormskirk.
We hope to to purchase with Darlington Building Society. We have called around locally but cant to find a Ormskirk conveyancing firm on the Darlington Building Society panel. Please you assist?

Over the last few months I have been searching for a leasehold apartment up to £195,000 and identified one round the corner in Ormskirk I like with open areas and transport links nearby, however it's only got 49 remaining years left on the lease. There is not much else in Ormskirk suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error acquiring a lease with such few years left?
If you require a home loan that many years will likely be an issue. Reduce the offer by the expected lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the existing owner has owned the premises for at least twenty four months you could ask them to commence the lease extension formalities and then assign it to you. You can add 90 years to the existing lease with a zero ground rent applied. You should consult your conveyancing lawyer about this.
I need to find a conveyancing solicitor for freehold conveyancing in Ormskirk. I have stumble upon a site which appears to be the ideal answer If it is possible to get all the legals done via web that would be ideal. Should I be wary? What are the potential pitfalls?
As usual with these online conveyancers you need to read ALL the small print - did you notice the extra charge for dealing with the mortgage?
