I plan on purchasing residence in Laceby. My Solicitor is not on the mortgage company solicitor list. Is it possible for me to retain my Laceby conveyancing solicitor even though they are not on the mortgage company approved list?
One will need to appoint a conveyancer to deal with the legal work required when you need a mortgage to purchase your home. The property lawyer will conduct all the necessary legal checks on the property, ensuring that you will be registered as proprietor and ensure that all the necessary mortgage documentation is dealt with. One could instruct a Laceby conveyancing practitioner of your choosing. Nevertheless, where the lawyer appointed is not a member of the mortgage company approved list supplemental charges will arise as separate legal representation will be need by the bank. Lender panel applications may be submitted, so where your conveyancer has not historically applied for membership they should do so.
Our god-son is buying a house that has just been built in Laceby with a mortgage from Kent Reliance. His lawyer has said that there is a delay in receiving the ‘Disclosure of Incentive Form’. What is this document - I have never come across this before?
The document is intended to provide information to the main parties engaged in the purchase. Therefore, it will be provided to your son’s lawyer who should be on the Kent Reliance conveyancing panel as a standard part of the process, and to the valuer when requested. The developer will be required to start the process by downloading the form and completing it. The form will therefore need to be available for the valuer at the time of his or her site visit. The form should be sent to the Kent Reliance conveyancing panel solicitor as early as possible, in order to avoid any last minute delays, and no later than at exchange of contracts.

The Laceby conveyancing firm that just started acting on my house acquisition in Laceby have suddenly shut down. I only went with them because I had to have a solicitor on the Kent Reliance conveyancing panel and my preferred Laceby lawyer was not. I gave my credit card details for them to take one hundred and fifty pounds for searches. What should be my next steps?
If you have an estate agent involved then inform them straight away so that they advise the vendors that there may be a slight delay due to the problems encountered. Most sellers would be sympathetic and urge their lawyer to send a new set of papers to your new solicitors. You will need to appoint new lawyers that are on the Kent Reliance conveyancing panel and notify the lender. If you have paid over any money, it will hopefully be held by the SRA as money in an intervened firm's bank accounts is transferred to the SRA. Then, the SRA or the intervention agent looks at the intervened firm's accounts to work out who the money belongs to. To claim your money you will need to contact the SRA. If the SRA cannot return money you are owed from the firm's bank accounts, or if they can only return part of the money, you can apply to the Compensation Fund for a grant. Your new lawyers should be in a position to help.
In what way can the Landlord & Tenant Act 1954 impact my commercial offices in Laceby and how can you help?
The 1954 Act gives protection to business lessees, granting the legal entitlement to make a request to court for a new lease and remain in occupation when the lease reaches an end. There are certain specified grounds that a landlord can refrain from granting a lease renewal and the rules are involved. We are happy to direct you to commercial conveyancing practices who use the act to your advantage and handle your commercial conveyancing in Laceby
