Is the fact that my solicitor in Rowley Regis is not on my mortgage company's conveyancing panel that there is a problem with the standard of his conveyancing?
That is most likely a wrong assumption to make. There are plenty of reasonable explanations. Just recently a report by the solicitors regulator revealed that over three quarters of law firms surveyed had been removed from at least one lender panel. The top 5 reasons are as follows: (1) low volume of transactions (2) the lawyer is a sole practitioner (3) as part of the HSBC panel reduction (4) regulatory contact by SRA (5) accidental removal. Where you are concerned you should simply call the Rowley Regis conveyancing firm and enquire why they are no longer on the approved list for your mortgage company.

My bid for a property was accepted at auction in Rowley Regis. Conveyancing is necessary. What is next?
Having to all intents and purposes signed on the dotted line you will need to instruct a conveyancing solicitor soon as you are facing a pending a drop dead date to complete the purchase. All auction property will ordinarily have a corresponding legal pack. This should include the copy title deeds, local authority and drainage searches. Where you are dealing with leasehold premises the legal papers should contain a copy of the lease, management information and a sellers leasehold information form and other conveyancing documentation pertinent to a leasehold property. You must pass this on to your appointed conveyancing solicitor ASAP. You also need to ensure that you have funds in order to complete the transaction on the set completion date.
This question may be naive but I am unseasoned as a 1st time buyer of a ground floor flat in Rowley Regis. Do I pick up the keys to the property on completion from my conveyancer? If so, I will instruct a High Street conveyancing solicitor in Rowley Regis?
There is no need to visit the lawyers office on the day of completion. Conveyancing lawyers for you will electronically transfer the completion advance to the seller's solicitors, and shortly after the monies have arrived, you should be able to pick up the keys from the selling Agents and start moving into the property. This tends to happen between 1 and 3pm.
