My home in Bexhill is up for sale and I have a purchaser. Does my property lawyer need to be on the Leeds Building Society conveyancing panel in order to deal with paying off my mortgage?

Ordinarily, even if your lawyer is not on the Leeds Building Society conveyancing panel they can still act for you on your sale. It might be that the lender will not release the original deeds (if applicable and increasingly irrelevant) until after the mortgage is paid off. You should speak to your lawyer directly before you start the process though to ensure that there is no problem as lenders are changing their specifications fairly frequently currently.

How does conveyancing in Bexhill differ for new build properties?

Most buyers of new build residence in Bexhill come to us having been asked by the housebuilder to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the residence is completed. This is because developers in Bexhill usually buy the site, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct conveyancing solicitors as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are used to new build conveyancing in Bexhill or who has acted in the same development.

I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold element on a house I have offered on two weeks back in what should have been a simple, chain free conveyancing. Bexhill is the location of the property. What do you suggest?

Flying freeholds in Bexhill are not the norm but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Bexhill you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds very carefully. Your lender may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Bexhill may determine that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold residence.

I'm remortgaging my primary property to a buy to let mortgage with TSB and I will use the ballance of the raised equity as a down payment on a second property. The area we are looking at is Bexhill. Will your conveyancers be able to act for both sets of banks and link together the two deals?

Make use of our search tool on this site to ensure that the lawyers are approved by both mortgage companies. Assuming that they are your conveyancer will be able to tie up the two transactions but you should have a chat with you lawyer and communicate your expectations and needs.
