My wife and I are about to complete buying a house in Woodbridge but as a result of wreckage from the recent storms I have was able negotiate compensation from the current proprietors of £3k by way of a reduction in the price. I had intended this to be addressed as part of the conveyancing process but RBS are not allowing this. Should they have been approached?
The conveyancing practitioner being on the RBS approved list is obliged to disclose to RBS of any changes to the purchase price. If you were to refuse your property lawyer to notify the price change to RBS then they would have to discontinue acting for you. In addition, RBS and you would have to appoint a new conveyancer for your conveyancing in Woodbridge.

We are planning to move house in January. Will my conveyancing solicitor update the removal company on the day of completion. On a separate note, can you put forward a removal company in Woodbridge. Conveyancing solicitor was found prior to coming across this page.
On the afternoon of completion you will need to collect the keys from your selling agent but this can only happen when the previous owners lawyers advise the agent that they have the completion monies and the keys can be handed over. After that you will need to advise the removal company that you are ready to move in. We are not in a position to recommend a particular removal organisation but can assist you in choosing a conveyancing in Woodbridge or a legal practice with expertise in conveyancing in Woodbridge.
Planning on purchasing a maisonette in Woodbridge. I have received an online quote from a licenced conveyancer, which states: "There will be no charge for dealing with the Lender if you are obtaining a mortgage". I take this to mean that there will be no additional fee if the solicitor is on the Yorkshire BS conveyancing panel. I wanted to make sure it means there will be no additional fees for dealing with the mortgage.
They are simply saying that the cost for acting for the lender is included in the fee being quoted. It is worth you checking that the Woodbridge lawyer is on the Yorkshire BS conveyancing panel.
I was told four weeks ago that my mortgage has been agreed to by Coventry BS. Is it usual for Coventry BS to only issue the offer once my solicitor in Woodbridge is approved on their conveyancing panel? Coventry BS have asked my solicitor to see a copy of their PI Insurance.
A lender would not issue an offer 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.

No doubt the best way to choose a conveyancing solicitor is to seek guidance from friends or relatives who have previously instructed the conveyancer you're contemplating using.
