Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Breaston

I am not well enough to travel far from Breaston. I would like to know the reason why all Breaston solicitors are not on all mortgage company panels?

Mortgage companies point to the fact that solicitor-led fraud is considered to be responsible for millions of pounds of fraud every year.The dismissal of law firms from lender panels started with the rise in mortgage fraud, which prompted a thematic review by the FSA in 2011. Its outcome included recommendations for lending institutions to review their conveyancing panels, which kicked off a major policy change in the sector. It resulted in lenders purging a number of firms from their official list of approved lawyers .

Can you point me to a directory of Nottingham panel conveyancers in Breaston on the Council of Mortgage Lender’s Website?

Unfortunately not yet. There is no such directory service on the CML or Building Society Association websites. Very few lending institutions make their panel listings visible on the web. Where you are seeking to appoint a Breaston conveyancing practitioner on the Nottingham please use our tool.

Is it the case that all Breaston solicitor practices on the Clydesdale conveyancing panel are overseen by the SRA?

As solicitors, in order to be on the Clydesdale approved list of solicitors they would need to be overseen by the SRA. Many mortgage companies do permit licenced conveyancers on their panel and in that case the firms would be overseen by the CLC.

I have paid off my mortgage with Aldermore. I assume I don't need a Breaston conveyancer on the Aldermore panel to discharge the mortgage at the Land Registry. Am I right?

If you have finished paying off your Aldermore mortgage, they may send you evidence showing that you have paid it off. Alternatively they may notify the Land Registry directly. The Land Registry need to see this evidence before they will remove the Aldermore mortgage from the register. Aldermore, and any evidence they send you, will determine the action you need to take. In cases where no conveyancer is acting for you and you have paid off your mortgage:

  1. but are not moving to another property
  2. where Aldermore has sent the Land Registry the discharge electronically, and
  3. Aldermore has instructed the Land Registry to do so
The Land Registry will send you a letter confirming that your Aldermore mortgage has been paid off.

Various internet forums that I have visited warn that are a common cause of stalling in Breaston house deals. Is there any truth in this?

The Council of Property Search Organisations (CoPSO) published determinations of a review by MoveWithUs that conveyancing searches do not feature amongst the common causes of hindrances during the legal transfer of property. Searches are unlikely to be the root cause of holding up conveyancing in Breaston.

I'm purchasing my first flat in Breaston with the aid of help to buy. The sellers refused to budge the price so I negotiated 6k of fixtures and fittings instead. The estate agent advised me not inform my conveyancer about this deal as it could jeopardize my mortgage with the lender. Do I keep my lawyer in the dark?.

All lenders require a Disclosure of Incentives Form from the developer of any new build, converted or renovated property, It is available online from the Lenders’ Handbook page on the CML website. CML form is completed and handed to the lender's surveyor when the inspection is done.

Lenders have different policies on incentives. Some accept none at all, cash or physical, while others will accept cash incentives up to 5%.

Hard to understand why the representative of a builder would be suggesting you withold information from a solicitor when all this will be clearly visible on forms the builder has to supply to its solicitor, the buyer's solicitor and the surveyor.

I opted to have a survey carried out on a house in Breaston before instructing solicitors. I have been told that there is a flying freehold overhang to the property. Our surveyor has said that some banks will not issue a mortgage on this type of premises.
