I am getting a mortgage with Lloyds. I intend to instruct a Licensed Conveyancer in Brighouse. Does the Lloyds Solicitor panel include conveyancers regulated by the CLC?
The Lloyds approved solicitor list is, like many other lenders, represented by the CML or BSA, open to Licensed Conveyancers regulated by the Council of Licensed Conveyancers.
My fiance and I decided to purchase a 3 bedroom flat in Brighouse with a loan from Skipton Building Society.We have a Brighouse conveyancing lawyer but Skipton Building Society advised that she’s not listed on their approved list of firms. we are left little option but to use a Skipton Building Society panel firm or keep our preferred solicitor and fork out for a Skipton Building Society panel lawyer to represent them. This seems very unfair; Can we not simply insist that Skipton Building Society use our lawyer?
No, not really. The mortgage offered to you is subject to its various provisions, a common one being that conveyancers must be on the Skipton Building Society approved list. in the past, most mortgage companies had large numbers of solicitors on their panels: a borrower could find one for themselves, as long as it was on the lender's panel. The lender would then simply instruct the borrower's lawyers to act for the lender, too. You can use your lender's panel lawyers or you could borrow from another lender which does not restrict your choice. Another option that might be available is for your solicitors to apply to be on the conveyancing panel for Skipton Building Society
It has been three months since my purchase conveyancing in Brighouse took place. I have checked the Land Registry site which shows that I paid £200,000 when infact I paid £215,000. 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 residence 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.
