Please explain the implications if my solicitor is expelled from the Clydesdale Conveyancing panel ahead of completing my conveyancing in Liskeard?
The first thing to point out is that, this is a very rare occurrence. In most cases even where a law firm is removed off of a panel the lender would allow the completion to go ahead as the lender would appreciate the difficulties that they would place you in if you have to instruct a new solicitor days before completion. In a worst case scenario where the lender insists that you instruct a new firm then it is possible for a very good lawyer to expedite the conveyancing albeit that you may pay a significant premium for this. The analogous situation is where a buyer instructs a lawyer, exchanges contracts and the law firm is shut down by a regulator such as the SRA. Again, in this situation you can find lawyers who can troubleshoot their way to bring the conveyancing to a satisfactory conclusion - albeit for a fee.
I just bought a house at auction in Liskeard. Conveyancing is necessary. What happens now?
Given that you are now legally bound yourself to purchase you should choose a conveyancing practitioner quickly as you will have a tight deadline in which to complete the conveyancing. Every auction property should have an associated auction set of papers. This will include most,if not all of the documents that your lawyer will need. In the case of leasehold property the conveyancing papers should provide a copy of the lease, management information and a sellers leasehold information form and associated conveyancing documentation pertinent to leasehold premises. You should pass this on to your appointed conveyancing solicitor ASAP. Do make sure that you have funds in place to complete on the on the contractual date .

I am the single recipient of my late father’s will with all property in now in my sole name, including the house in Liskeard. The Liskeard property was put into my name in June. I now wish to sell up. I understand that there is a Mortgage Lenders 6 month 'rule', meaning my proprietorship will be treated the same way as though I had purchased the property in June. 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." Technically you might be affected by that. Most mortgage companies would take a pragmatic view as this requirement primarily exists to capture the purchase and immediately sell or the quick reselling of property.
I am buying a property and the lawyer has identified Chancel Repair for which the property could be obligated to pay given it’s proximity to the area of such a church. She has mentioned insurance. Is this strictly required for conveyancing in Liskeard
