My wife and I are buying an apartment in Ammanford. My Solicitor has never been on on the bank conveyancing list. Am I still permitted to appoint my Ammanford conveyancing solicitor notwithstanding that they are excluded from the lender approved list?
One will need to instruct a lawyer to deal with the legal work required when you require a loan to purchase your property. They will conduct all the essential investigations on the property, make sure that you will be registered as proprietor and ensure that all the required mortgage documentation is dealt with. One could instruct a Ammanford conveyancing practitioner of your choosing. However, if the conveyancing practitioner selected is not on the bank conveyancing panel supplemental costs will arise as separate legal representation will be required by them. Lender panel applications may be submitted, so if your conveyancer has not previously sought membership they can do so.
Do the Building Society Association intend to launch a search tool with a view to list firms on the Earl Shilton BS conveyancing panel for example in Ammanford?
We are not aware of any plans on the part of the BSA to promote such a search facility.
When it comes to mortgage companies such as Barclays, do Ammanford solicitors have to pay a yearly amount to be on the list of approved solicitors?
We are unaware of any bank fees to register on their list of approved firms, although some do charge an administration charge to deal with the processing of the conveyancing panel submission.
My partner and I have arranged a further advance on our home loan from Coventry BS as we want to conduct renovations to our home in Ammanford. Are we obliged to choose a local Ammanford solicitor on the Coventry BS conveyancing panel to handle the legals?
Coventry BS would not normally instruct a member of their approved list of lawyers to handle such a matter. If they do require any legal work then you would need to ensure that such a lawyer was on the Coventry BS list.
I have paid off my mortgage with Clydesdale. I assume I don't need a Ammanford solicitor on the Clydesdale panel to discharge the mortgage at the Land Registry. Am I right?
If you have finished paying off your Clydesdale mortgage, they may send you evidence showing that you have paid it off. Alternatively they may notify the Land Registry directly. The Land Registry need to see this evidence before they will remove the Clydesdale mortgage from the register. Clydesdale, and any evidence they send you, will determine the action you need to take. In cases where no conveyancer is acting for you and you have paid off your mortgage:
- but are not moving to another property
- where Clydesdale has sent the Land Registry the discharge electronically, and
- Clydesdale has instructed the Land Registry to do so
The deeds to our house are lost. The solicitors who conducted the conveyancing in Ammanford 10 years ago are no longer around. What are my next steps?
As long as the title is registered the details of your ownership will be evidenced by the Land Registry under a Title Number. It is easy to conduct a search at the Land Registry, identify your house and obtain up to date copies of the property title for less than a fiver. If the property is Leasehold then the Land Registry will also normally hold a certified duplicate of the Registered Lease and again, a copy can be ordered for a small fee.
