I decided to go with a Brent Park based lawyer for our conveyancing in Brent Park today. Upon checking the Terms it is apparent thatwe are on the hook for costs even if the movedoes not proceed. Would I be best advised to use an internet lawyer advertising no move no charge conveyancing in Brent Park?
Generally there is a concession along the lines that if "No Completion No Fee" is offered then the conveyancing charges will tend to be be more expensive to counteract the cases that do not proceed. Please beware that these offerings rarely protect you from outlay such your Brent Park conveyancing search costs.

I have today made my last payment due on my mortgage with Leeds Building Society. I assume I don't need a Brent Park conveyancer on the Leeds Building Society panel to remove the mortgage at the Land Registry. Am I right?
If you have finished paying off your Leeds Building Society 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 Leeds Building Society mortgage from the register. Leeds Building Society, 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:
- but are not moving to another property
- where Leeds Building Society has sent the Land Registry the discharge electronically, and
- Leeds Building Society has instructed the Land Registry to do so
I had an offer accepted on a property in Brent Park on 22/7/2025, valuation was booked 3 days later, received a clean bill of health. Conveyancer retained, so the only thing outstanding was my mortgage offer. Having made daily calls to TSB and chasing them on my offer, I have now been told that my offer will not be issued unless the lawyer is on the TSB conveyancing panel. Can the lender hold off the offer?
Mortgage companies tend not to not issue an offer until they have details of a lawyer on their panel. It can take a few weeks for TSB to deal with your lawyer's application to be on the TSB conveyancing panel. There's no guarantee that your solicitor will be accepted.
My offer on a semi in Brent Park has been accepted, but there is a chain. The vendors have offered on somewhere, but it’s not been accepted yet, and have viewings of other flats in the pipeline. I have chosen a nearby conveyancing solicitor in Brent Park. What do I do now? At what point should I apply for the mortgage with Bank of Ireland?
It is usual to have concerns where there is a chain as you are unlikely to want to incur costs prematurely (mortgage application is approx one thousand pounds, then valuation, Brent Park conveyancing search fees, etc). First, you should ensure that your solicitor is on the Bank of Ireland approved list. As to the next stages this very much depends on the specifics of your transaction, desire for this property and on the state of the market. In a rising market many purchasers would apply for a home loan with Bank of Ireland and pay for the valuation and only if it comes back ok would they request their lawyer to move forward with the conveyancing in Brent Park.
