My brother-in-law has suggested I instruct a conveyancing solicitor in Beeston. I I would like to check if they are accepted on the Leeds Building Society conveyancing panel. Can you help?
You should e-mail the conveyancer and enquire if they can act for the lender. Otherwise please get in touch with Leeds Building Society who may be able to assist.
It has been 4 months following my purchase conveyancing in Beeston completed. I have checked the Land Registry website which shows that I paid £200,000 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 premises 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.

If a Beeston lease has fewer than 80 years it will impact the salability of the property. It is worth checking with your bank that they are willing to to proceed given the lease term. A short lease means that you will almost definitely have to extend the lease sooner rather than later and you need to have some idea of how much this would cost.

The solicitor and licensed conveyancing practices listed on our site have advised us that they are on the mortgage company panel and agreed to advise us to take down their listing in the event of removal off of the mortgage company panel. To date we have not been informed by either a mortgage company or a member of the public that the data about a specific Beeston conveyancing solicitor being on the bank conveyancing panel is incorrect.
