Last month we had a mortgage agreed in principle with Yorkshire BS. Canning Town conveyancing practitioners have been chosen. What is the average time that one could expect to receive a mortgage offer from Yorkshire BS?

There is no definitive answer here. Have Yorkshire BS completed the valuation? Have you informed Yorkshire BS as to your lawyers' details and checked that your lawyers are on the Yorkshire BS conveyancing panel? It is not unusual for a mortgage offer to take a month to come through.

I have today made my last payment due on my mortgage with Yorkshire BS. I assume I don't need a Canning Town conveyancer on the Yorkshire BS panel to remove the mortgage at the Land Registry. Please confirm.

If you have finished paying off your Yorkshire BS 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 Yorkshire BS mortgage from the register. Yorkshire BS, 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 Yorkshire BS has sent the Land Registry the discharge electronically, and
  3. Yorkshire BS has instructed the Land Registry to do so
The Land Registry will send you a letter confirming that your Yorkshire BS mortgage has been paid off.

Due to the advice of my in-laws I had a survey completed on a property in Canning Town prior to instructing conveyancers. I have been advised that there is a flying freehold aspect to the property. The surveyor advised that some lenders may not issue a mortgage on this type of home.

It varies from the lender to lender. Santander has different requirements from Nationwide. If you e-mail us we can look into this further with the relevant bank. If you lender is happy to lend one our lawyers can assist as they are accustomed to dealing with flying freeholds in Canning Town. Conveyancing can be more complicated and therefore you should check with your conveyancing solicitor in Canning Town to see if the conveyancing will be more expensive.

I'm converting the mortgage on my current house to a buy to let loan with The Royal Bank of Scotland and I will use the ballance of the raised equity as a down payment on another house. The location we are looking at is Canning Town. Will your lawyers be able to act for the two banks and tie in the conveyances?

Make use of our search tool on this site to check that the solicitors are on the relevant lender panels. On the basis that they are your solicitor should be able to connect the two deals but you should have a chat with you lawyer and communicate your expectations and needs.

I own a leasehold house in Canning Town. Conveyancing and Virgin Money mortgage are in place. I have received a letter from someone saying they have taken over the reversionary interest in the property. It included a ground rent demand for rent dating back to 1993. The conveyancing practitioner in Canning Town who acted for me is not around. What should I do?

The first thing you should do is make enquiries of the Land Registry to be sure that this person is indeed the registered owner of the freehold reversion. There is no need to instruct a Canning Town conveyancing lawyer to do this as you can do this on the Land Registry website for £3. Rest assured that regardless, even if this is the rightful landlord, under the Limitation Act 1980 no more than 6 years of rent can be collected.

I am the proprietor of a second floor flat in Canning Town. In the absence of agreement between myself and the freeholder, can the Leasehold valuation Tribunal make a decision on the sum payable for a lease extension?

Most definitely. We are happy to put you in touch with a Canning Town conveyancing firm who can help.

The number of years remaining on the existing lease(s) was 69.77 years.

I see that you have a search directory identifying firms on the mortgage company conveyancing panel. Do Canning Town conveyancing companies pay you a commission if I appoint them for my house purchase?
