In what way does my ID and proof of funds have anything to do with my conveyancing in Blakelaw? Why is this being asked of me?
Anti-terror and anti-money-laundering laws require solicitors and licensed conveyancers to verify the ID of the potential client they are dealing with before they can accept their conveyancing instruction. The Terms and Conditions that you are required to sign should stipulate this. Your lender will also require certain documents to be viewed. Should you are unwilling to hand over ID verification documents, your lawyer would not be able to accept instructions from you.
I had intended to instruct a conveyancing solicitor in Blakelaw for our home move. Our broker has since advised us that our bank Lloyds TSB Bank won't deal with them. Surely this is unfair competition?
A mortgage company will require a panel solicitor act for it. Borrowers are liable to meet the cost of this. Please make use of our directory service to find a solicitor to carry conveyancing in Blakelaw on the Lloyds TSB Bank member panel.
Does a directory service exist listing UBS panel conveyancers in Blakelaw on the Council of Mortgage Lender’s Website?
Unfortunately not yet. There is no such directory service on the CML or Building Society Association sites. Very few lenders make their panel listings visible over the internet. If you are in need of a Blakelaw conveyancer on the UBS please make the most of our facility.
Two weeks ago we had a mortgage agreed in principle with Santander. Blakelaw conveyancing practitioners have been instructed. How long does it take for Santander to issue the offer to the property lawyer?
There is no definitive answer here. Have Santander conducted the survey? Have you informed Santander as to your lawyers' details and checked that your lawyers are on the Santander conveyancing panel? It is not unusual for a mortgage offer to take a month to come through.
Santander have agreed my mortgage in principle, my offer on a apartment in Blakelaw has been agreed to, now what?
The estate agent will want to know who your solicitors are (ensure that the conveyancing practitioners are on the bank’s panel). Contact Santander or your broker and finalise any relevant forms. Santander will appoint a valuer who will get in touch with the estate agent or seller to schedule a slot for the valuation to take place. Once carried out (assuming no problems) it takes about a week for the mortgage offer to be issued. Santander will send the offer to you and your solicitors. The legal work will then take it’s course according the nature and complexity of the conveyancing in Blakelaw.
It has been four months following my purchase conveyancing in Blakelaw took place. I have checked the Land Registry website which shows that I paid £150,000 when infact I paid £170,000. 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.
