It may have been a long time coming a loan agreement from Santander for the refinancing of my single room maisonette is expected imminently. Are you able to propose a cheap conveyancing lawyer in Pitsea?

I have given 8 weeks notice to my current landlord and must vacate my rented property in Pitsea by 15/4/2025. Conveyancing for my house purchase is underway. How realistic is it to complete in three weeks as I wish to avoid having to find temporary accommodation?
Generally one should not provide notice on a rental until you have exchanged. If you have not already done so, contact to your lawyer and request that they cajole the other solicitors, try to get a realistic time scale from them that everyone will aim to achieve
I'm the sole recipient of my late grandmother’s will with all property in now in my sole name, including the house in Pitsea. Conveyancing formalities meant that the Land Registry date was in January. I plan to dispose of the house. I do know about the Mortgage Lenders 6 month 'rule', meaning my proprietorship may be regarded the same way as though I had purchased the house in January. Will no one buy the property for half a year?
The CML handbook mandates conveyancers to: "report to us immediately if the owner or registered proprietor has been registered for less than six months." By the strict wording you might be affected by that. How sensible a view banks take of it, depend on the mortgage company as this provision is principally there to pick up on the purchase and immediately sell or the flipping of property.
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 lender, Santander are being problematic. The Pitsea solicitor who is on the Santander conveyancing panel is recommending indemnity insurance as a solution but Santander are requiring a building regulation certificate. Why do Santander have a conveyancing panel if they don't accept advice from them?
It is probably the case that Santander have referred the matter to their valuer. The reason why Santander 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.
My offer was accepted on a property in Pitsea on 14/1/2025, valuation was booked five days after, all came back fine. Conveyancer instructed, so all that was missing was my mortgage offer. Having made daily calls to Coventry BS and chasing them on my offer, I have now been told that my offer will not be issued unless the lawyer is on the Coventry BS conveyancing panel. Are Coventry BS entitled to hold back the Mortgage pending the lawyer being on the approved list?
Mortgage companies tend not to not issue a mortgage until they have details of a lawyer on their panel. It can take a few weeks for Coventry BS to deal with your lawyer's application to be on the Coventry BS conveyancing panel. There's no guarantee that your solicitor will be accepted.
I purchased my flat on 14 November and the transaction details are still not registered. Need I be worried? My conveyancing solicitor in Pitsea said it will be concluded in a couple of weeks. Are properties in Pitsea uniquely lengthy to register?
As far as conveyancing in Pitsea is concerned, registration is no faster or slower than the rest of England and Wales. As opposed to being determined by geographic area, timeframes can differ subject to the party submitting the application, whether it is in order and whether the Land registry must send notices to any 3rd persons or bodies. As of today in the region of three quarters of submission are completed in less than three weeks but occasionally there can be longer delays. Registration is effected after the new owner has moved in to the property thus 'speed' is not typically top priority but if it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your solicitor should speak with the land registry and explain the circumstances.
I need to instruct a conveyancing practitioner in Pitsea for my remortgage. Is it possible to see a firm’s complaints history with the profession’s regulator?
