After the demise of Home Information Packs, energy performance certificates remained a required component of selling a property. An energy assessment needs to be commissioned in advance of the property being placed on the market. It is not something that conveyancers normally organise. Where you are using a Darnall conveyancing solicitor they might help arrange energy assessments given their contacts with long established Darnall assessors
My wife and I purchasing a terrace house in Darnall. We would like to carry out a loft conversion at the property.Will legal due diligence on the property include investigations to determine if these works are prohibited?
Your property lawyer should review the deeds as conveyancing in Darnall will sometimes reveal restrictions in the title documents which prohibit categories of works or necessitated the consent of another owner. Certain additions require local authority planning consent and approval in accordance building regulations. Some locations are designated conservation areas and special planning restrictions apply which frequently prevent or impact extensions. It would be sensible to check these things with a surveyor before you commit yourself to a purchase.
is it true that all Darnall solicitor practices on the Clydesdale conveyancing panel are overseen by the Solicitors Regulatory Authority?
As solicitors, in order to be on the Clydesdale approved list of solicitors they would need to be overseen by the Solicitors Regulatory Authority.

My partner and I are downsizing from our home in Darnall and according to the buyers it appears that there is a possibility that the property was constructed on contaminated land. Any local lawyer would know this is not the case. For the life of me I don't know why the buyers are using a factory type conveyancing firm as opposed to a conveyancing solicitor in Darnall. We have lived in Darnall for many years we know that this is a non issue. Do we get in touch with our local Authority to seek clarification that there is no issue.
It would appear that you have a conveyancing solicitor currently acting for you. Are they able to advise? You must check with your lawyer before you do anything. It is very possible that once the local authority has been informed of a potential issue it cannot be insured against (a bit like being diagnosed with a serious illness and then taking out life insurance to cover that same sickness)
I have recentlydiscovered that Arc property Solicitors have closed. They carried out my conveyancing in Darnall for a purchase of a leasehold apartment 12 months ago. How can I check that the property is not still registered in the name of the former proprietor?
The quickest method to see if the premises 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 Darnall conveyancing specialists.
