Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Bridlington

I do hope you can help me. My Bridlington lawyer is informing me me that she is duty bound toorder Bridlington conveyancing searches becausethe firm are on the Virgin Moneysolicitor panel. Do I not have any say here?

Unfortunately both you and your lawyer have little choice here. As you are taking a home loan with a lender your conveyancing practitioner has to comply with their conditions as set out in their version of the CML Conveyancing Handbook. Your conveyancer would have previously signed the Terms and Conditions of your lender’s conveyancing panel appointment which obliges them to follow the CML Handbook specifications . Even if you were a cash buyer you would be ill advised not to carry out Bridlington conveyancing searches.

It is a dozen years since I purchased my property in Bridlington. Conveyancing lawyers have now been retained on the sale but I am unable to find the title documents. Is this a major issue?

You need not be too concerned. Firstly the deeds may be retained by the lender or they could be archived with the conveyancers who acted in the purchase. Secondly the chances are that the property will be registered at the land registry and you will be able to establish that you own the property by your conveyancing solicitors procuring up to date copy of the land registers. Almost all conveyancing in Bridlington relates to registered property but in the unlikely event that your home is unregistered it is more of a problem but is resolvable.

I have Fifty Six years remaining on my lease and need a lease extension for my apartment in Bridlington. Conveyancing solicitors on the Bank of Ireland panel can deal with such extensions right?

Most leasehold conveyancing experts should be able to deal with a lease extension. if you are obtaining a mortgage then your lender may insist that the lease be extended before competition. Bank of Ireland have specific requirements as set out in the UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook in relation to minimum unexpired lease terms. As of 21/6/2025 the requirements read as follows :

Yes, subject to a minimum lease term of 85 years. The unexpired lease term must be at least the mortgage term plus 45 years. See also 5.14.9

Despite weeks of looking the Title Certificate and documents to my property are lost. The solicitors who did the conveyancing in Bridlington 4 years ago are no longer around. What are my next steps?

Assuming the title is registered the information relating to your proprietorship will be recorded by HMLR with a Title Number. It is possible to conduct a search at the Land Registry, find your house and secure up to date copies of the Registered Entries for less than a fiver. Where the title is Leasehold then the Land Registry will usually retain a file duplicate of the Registered Lease and again, a copy can be retrieved for twenty pounds.

Due to the guidance of my in-laws I had a survey completed on a property in Bridlington prior to retaining conveyancers. I have been advised that there is a flying freehold aspect to the house. Our surveyor has said that some mortgage companies will not give a mortgage on this type of house.
