I am hoping to receive a mortgage offer from Nat West. I would like to instruct a Licensed Conveyancer in Eastcote. Does the Nat West Solicitor panel include conveyancers regulated by the CLC?
The Nat West approved solicitor list is, like many other lenders, associated to the CML or Building Society Association, open to Licensed Conveyancers regulated by the CLC.

I am aiming to move property in March. Will my conveyancing solicitor communicate with the removal company on the day of completion. As an aside, can you put forward a removal company in Eastcote. Conveyancing firm was found before I stumbled across your page.
On the day of completion you can collect the keys from the property agent but this should only be done once the previous owners conveyancers advise the agent that they have the completion monies and the keys can be passed over. After that you should tell the removal men that you are ready to move in. As a matter of policy we do not recommend a specific removal company but can help you find a conveyancing in Eastcote or a lawyer with expertise in conveyancing in Eastcote.
We have a mortgage agreed in principle with Lloyds. Eastcote conveyancing practitioners have been appointed. How long does it take for Lloyds to send the offer to the lawyer?
There is no definitive answer here. Have Lloyds conducted the survey? Have you advised Lloyds as to your lawyers' details and checked that your lawyers are on the Lloyds conveyancing panel? It is not unusual for a mortgage offer to take a month to come through.
Our sealed bid on a detached house in Eastcote has been agreed to, the vendors do nevertheless have a tied purchase. The sellers have placed an offer on on an apartment, but it’s not yet agreed to, and have viewings of other flats in the pipeline. I have instructed a local conveyancing solicitor in Eastcote. What should be my next step? At what stage should I apply for the mortgage with HSBC?
It is usual to have apprehensions where there is a chain as you are unlikely to want to incur expenses prematurely (mortgage application is in the region of £1k, then valuation, Eastcote conveyancing search fees, etc). The first course of action is to ensure that your solicitor is on the HSBC conveyancing panel. Concerning the next phase this very much dictated by the uniqueness of your case, desire for this property and on the state of the market. In a hot market many buyers will apply for a home loan with HSBC and pay for the valuation and only if it comes back ok would they ask their lawyer to move forward with searches.
Is it best to choose a Eastcote conveyancing solicitor in close proximity to the house I am buying? We have a good friend who can deal with the legal formalities but they are based 200miles away.
The benefit of a local Eastcote conveyancing practice is that you can visit the firm to sign paperwork, deliver your ID and apply pressure on them if necessary. They will also have local intelligence which is a benefit. That being said it's more important to get someone that will do a good and efficient job. If other friends have used your friend and on the whole were happy that must trump using an unknown Eastcote conveyancing solicitor solely due to them being based in the area.
