My financial adviser says he needs my Moseley lawyer’ panel member for the Lloyds conveyancing panel. How do I discover this. I have contacted my local Moseley office but they have not responded to me.
Have you tried calling your Moseley conveyancing practitioner about this?. Most Moseley conveyancing practices will keep a file or database of lender panel information which would include, if applicable, their conveyancing panel details for each bank.
It has been five months since my purchase conveyancing in Moseley completed. I have checked the Land Registry site which shows that I paid £150,000 when infact I paid £180,000. Why the discrepancy?
The price paid figure is taken from the application to register the purchase. It is the figure included in the Transfer (the legal deed which transfers the asset from one person to the other) and referred to as the 'consideration' or purchase price. You can report an error in the price paid figure using the LR online form. In most cases errors result from typos so at first glance the figure. Do report it so they can double check and advise.
How does conveyancing in Moseley differ for newly converted properties?
Most buyers of new build or newly converted property in Moseley approach us having been asked by the developer to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the property is built. This is because builders in Moseley typically acquire the real estate, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct conveyancers as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are accustomed to new build conveyancing in Moseley or who has acted in the same development.

My husband and I are first time buyers - agreed a price, yet the agent informed us that the vendor will only issue a contract if we use their recommended solicitors as they want an ‘expedited deal’. We would rather use a high street conveyancer who is accustomed to conveyancing in Moseley
We suspect that the owner is not behind this ultimatum. If they desire ‘a quick sale', taking such a hostile approach to a serious purchaser is counter productive. Bypass the agents and go straight to the sellers and explain that (a)you are serious buyers (b)you are ready to progress, with finances arranged © you are unencumbered (d) you wish to move quickly (e)but you will continue to use your preferred Moseley conveyancing lawyers - not the ones that will give their estate agent a commission or hit his conveyancing thresholds demanded by head office.
