Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Carlton

My fiance and I swapping mortgage lender for our flat in Carlton with Virgin Money. We have a son 19 who lives with us. Our solicitor requested us to identify anyone over the age of 17 other than ourselves who lives in the flat. The solicitor has now sent a form for our son to sign, waiving any legal rights in the event that the property is repossessed. I have two concerns (1) Is this form unique to the Virgin Money conveyancing panel as he did not need to sign this form when we purchased 4 years ago (2) In signing this form is our son in any way compromising his right to inherit the property?

On the face of it your lawyer has done nothing wrong as it is established procedure for any occupier who is aged 17 or over to sign the necessary Consent Form, which is purely to state that any rights he has in the property are postponed and secondary to Virgin Money. This is solely used to protect Virgin Money if the property were re-possessed so that in such circumstances, your son would be legally obliged to leave. It does not impact your son’s right to inherit the apartment. Please note that if your son were to inherit and the mortgage in favour of Virgin Money had not been discharged, he would be liable to take over the loan or pay it off, but other than that, there is nothing stopping him from keeping the property in accordance with your will or the rules of intestacy.

What is the difference between a licensed conveyancer and conveyancing solicitor in Carlton

There are two types of lawyers who can do conveyancing in Carlton namely licenced conveyancers or solicitors. Both professionals handle the legal services that you need to complete the disposal or acquisition of property. They are both required to carry out Carlton conveyancing on similar quality and guidelines so you can be safe in the knowledge that your conveyancing will be properly carried out and that all requirements and steps will be accurately taken.

Is it the case that all Carlton solicitor firms on the RBS conveyancing panel are governed by the SRA?

As a firm of solicitors, in order to be on the RBS approved list of solicitors they would need to be governed by the Solicitors Regulatory Authority. The majority of mortgage companies do list licenced conveyancers on their panel in which case such firms would be governed by the CLC.

I had an offer accepted on a house in Carlton on 4/3/2025, valuation was booked five days after, all came back fine. Solicitor retained, so the only thing outstanding was my mortgage offer. Having made daily calls to Lloyds and chasing them on my offer, I have now been told that my offer will not be issued unless the lawyer is on the Lloyds conveyancing panel. Are Lloyds entitled to hold back the Mortgage pending the lawyer being on the approved list?

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 Lloyds to deal with your lawyer's application to be on the Lloyds conveyancing panel. There's no guarantee that your solicitor will be accepted.

What will a local search reveal about the property I am buying in Carlton?

Carlton conveyancing often starts with the ordering local authority searches directly from your local Authority or through a personal search company for instance Searchflow The local search plays an important role in most Carlton conveyancing purchase; that is if you don’t want any nasty surprises after you move into your new home. The search will reveal information on, amongst other things, details on planning applications applicable to the property (whether granted or refused), building control history, any enforcement action, restrictions on permitted development, nearby road schemes, contaminated land and radon gas; in all a total of thirteen subject headings.

It has been four months since my purchase conveyancing in Carlton concluded. I have checked the Land Registry website which shows that I paid £175,000 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 asset 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.

I am purchasing my first flat in Carlton with the aid of help to buy. The developers would not move on the amount so I negotiated 6k of additionals instead. The sale representative advised me not disclose to my conveyancer about the deal as it would adversely affect my loan with the bank. Should I keep quiet?.

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.

In my capacity as executor for the will of my father I am selling a house in Neath but live in Carlton. My lawyer (based 250 kilometers from meneeds me to sign a statutory declaration before completion. Can you recommend a conveyancing practitioner in Carlton to witness this legal document for me?

strictly speaking you are unlikely to need to have the documents attested by a conveyancing solicitor. Normally any notary public or qualified solicitor will suffice regardless of whether they are Carlton based
