I am considering applying for a Skipton mortgage for purchase of a newly converted (under development) in Botany Bay with 60% loan to value. Is it compulsory to choose a solicitor on the conveyancing panel for Skipton ?
In theory, you could use a solicitor that is not on the Skipton conveyancing panel, but Skipton 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.
I require quick conveyancing in Botany Bay as I am faced with an ultimatum to complete within one month. Thankfully I do not require a mortgage. Is it possible to decline from having conveyancing searches to save fees and time?

Me and my brother own a semi-detached Georgian house in Botany Bay. Conveyancing practitioner represented me and Yorkshire Building Society. I happened to do a free search for it on the Land Registry database and there are a couple of entries: one for freehold, the second leasehold under the matching address. I'd like to know for sure, how can I find out??
You should review the Freehold register you have again and check the Charges Register as there may be mention of a lease. The best way to be sure that you are also the registered proprietor of the leasehold and freehold title as well is to check (£3). It is not completely unheard of in Botany Bay and other locations in the country and poses no real issues for owners other than when they sell they have to account for both freehold and leasehold interests when dealing with buyers. You can also check the position with your conveyancing lawyer who carried out the work.
Due to the input of my in-laws I had a survey completed on a house in Botany Bay ahead of instructing conveyancers. I have been advised that there is a flying freehold overhang to the house. Our surveyor advised that some lenders will not issue a mortgage on such a home.
It varies from the lender to lender. Bank of Scotland has different instructions from Nationwide. If you e-mail us we can check via the relevant lender. If you lender is happy to lend one our lawyers can help as they are used to dealing with flying freeholds in Botany Bay. Conveyancing can be more complicated and therefore you should check with your conveyancing solicitor in Botany Bay to see if the conveyancing costs will increase in light of this.

I’m about to sell my garden apartment in Botany Bay. Conveyancing solicitors are to be appointed soon, however I have recently had a quarterly service charge invoice – what should I do?
It best that you clear the service charge as normal because all rents and service invoices will be allotted as part of the financial calculations for completion monies, so you will be reimbursed by the buyer for the period running from after the completion date to the subsequent invoice date. Most management companies will not acknowledge the buyer unless the service charges have been paid and are up to date, so it is important for both buyer and seller for the seller to show that they are up to date. Having a clear account will assist your cause and will leave you no worse off financially.
