I am considering remortgaging my flat in Blakedown, does my lawyer have to be on the TSB Conveyancing panel?

In theory, you could use a solicitor that is not on the TSB conveyancing panel, but TSB would require one of their panel solicitors to be instructed to act in their interests, and you'd have to pay for this - so most people instruct a panel solicitor. It's also easier, as otherwise you'd have to deal with two solicitors for the same conveyancing matter.

We have a mortgage agreed in principle with TSB. Blakedown conveyancing practitioners are chosen. How long does it take for TSB to forward the offer to the conveyancer?

There is no definitive answer here. Have TSB done the valuation? Have you advised TSB as to your lawyers' details and checked that your lawyers are on the TSB conveyancing panel? Sometimes it can take as long as six weeks for a mortgage offer to be issued.

I have decided to exercise my right to buy my property in Blakedown off the council. I have a mortgage offer with Nottingham. Conveyancing is new to me. Can I proceed without a solicitor easily? I think we can but we keep being told I should have one. Any advice?

It is not advisable to proceed with a house purchase without a solicitor. The council's solicitor are not acting for you. You need a solicitor for a number reasons. One of which is to verify what plans the Council have for repairs and refurbishment for the next five years. Many leaseholders have been stung for contributions of thousands of pounds. In any event, if you are getting a mortgage with Nottingham, you will need to appoint a solicitor on the Nottingham conveyancing panel.

My offer on a semi in Blakedown has been accepted, the owners do however have a tied purchase. The owners have offered on a property, but it’s not yet tied up, and are looking at other flats booked. I have chosen a bricks and mortar conveyancing solicitor in Blakedown. What do I do now? When should I get the mortgage application with Santander started?

It is normal to have apprehensions where there is a chain as you are unlikely to want to be too out of pocket too early (mortgage application is approx one thousand pounds, then valuation, Blakedown conveyancing search costs, etc). First, you should ensure that your conveyancer is on the Santander conveyancing panel. Concerning the subsequent phase this very much depends on the circumstances of your case, attraction to the property and on the state of the market. In a buoyant market some purchasers would apply for a home loan with Santander and arrange for the valuation and only if it comes back ok would they request their property lawyer to proceed with the conveyancing in Blakedown.

Despite weeks of looking the Title Certificate and documents to my property are lost. The lawyers who handled the conveyancing in Blakedown 5 years ago have long since closed. What do I do?

You no longer need to have the physical official documentation to establish that you are the registered proprietor of land or property, given that the Land Registry have everything they need in a digital format.

We are in the process of buying a home in Blakedown. Could our property lawyer have the amount we are are purchasing for confidential from sites such as Rightmove. How could this be done?

The register of ownership is a public document, so HMLR would be breaching their statutory obligations excluded certain homes such as your property in Blakedown.
