I had intended to instruct a conveyancing solicitor in Wallington for our house move. Our financial adviser has since advised us that our bank Clydesdale won't deal with them. Surely this is unfair competition?

Consequently, mortgage companies are increasingly seeing more data from law firms relating to their operations and the individuals who work for them and set certain criteria such a completing on a minimum amount of conveyancing. Many Wallington conveyancing firms that have been excluded from lender panels have a 100% healthy track record, no complaints and no claims and didn't just 'dabble' in conveyancing. Wallington is amongst the numerous areas where the lawyers we recommend are on the panel for Clydesdale.

I just bought a house at auction in Wallington. Conveyancing is required. What happens now?

Having exchanged you should retain a conveyancing solicitor soon as you are faced with a tight a fixed date to complete the property. All auction property should have an associated auction pack. This will likely include the copy title deeds, local authority and drainage searches. If you have purchased leasehold property the legal pack may contain a copy of the lease, management information and a sellers leasehold information form and associated conveyancing paperwork pertinent to leasehold premises. You should hand this to the conveyancer instructed by you at the earliest opportunity. You also need to ensure that you have funds in order to complete the transaction on the set completion date.

I am planning to move property in February. 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 Wallington. Conveyancing solicitor was found before I stumbled across this site.

I have decided to exercise my right to buy my property in Wallington off the council. I have a mortgage offer with Co-operative. Conveyancing is new to me. Can I proceed without a solicitor easily? I think we can but we keep being told I should have one. Any advice?

It is not advisable to proceed with a house purchase without a solicitor. The council's solicitor are not acting for you. You need a solicitor for a number reasons. One of which is to verify what plans the Council have for repairs and refurbishment for the next five years. Many leaseholders have been stung for contributions of thousands of pounds.
