I decided to go with a Belford based firm for our conveyancing in Belford last week. Reviewing the Terms it is apparent thatwe are responsible for charges even if our purchase aborts. Should I go with them or select an internet solicitor practice promising no move no charge conveyancing in Belford?
Generally there is a compromise along the lines that if "No Sale No Fee" is advertised then the conveyancing charges will tend to be be uplifted to cover those cases that do not proceed. Please beware that these schemes tend not to protect you from expenditure such as Belford conveyancing search charges.
Having sold my house in Belford last October but my buyer keeps texting daily to moan that their conveyancer is waiting to hear from mine. What should have happened now that I have sold?

We are 14 days into a residential purchase having been referred to solicitors by the selling agent to carry out the conveyancing in Belford. I am am very frustrated with the quality of service. Could you you assist me in finding new conveyancers?
A lawyer would need to be really poor in order to consider replacing them. Has your loan offer been generated? In the event that it has you must make them aware of the new contact details and have the loan are re-issued.

My partner and I are buying a studio flat in Belford. At the time of instructing our solicitor, they said that they were on all mainstream mortgage company panels. The financial adviser contacted us yesterday to say that they don't appear to be on the Nationwide approved list. Were it to be true, what should we do? Do we just pick a new property lawyer that is on their approved list or should we cover the costs for separate representation, with Nationwide appointing their own approved conveyancing practitioner.
When acquiring a property with the benefit of a mortgage it is normal for the buyer’s lawyers to also represent the purchaser's lender. In order to act for a bank or building society a lawyer has to be on that lender's list of approved lawyers. An application has to be made by the conveyancer to the lender to become a member of the lender's panel and there are increasingly strict criteria which the conveyancer has to satisfy. Some building societies now insist their panel firms to be part of the Law Society’s Conveyancing Quality Scheme. Your lawyer should contact Nationwide to find out if they can apply for membership of their conveyancing panel, but if that is not viable they will instruct their own solicitors to act. You don't have to instruct a firm on Nationwide's conveyancing panel as you are at liberty to use your preferred Belford lawyers, in which case it will likely add costs, and it will likely delay the transaction as you are adding another lawyer into the equation.
