Completed the sale of my flat in Catshill last January yet the purchaser is telephoning daily to moan that his lawyer needs to hear from mylawyer. What are the post completion sale legalities now that I have sold?
Post completion of your sale your conveyancer is obliged to deliver the transfer documentation and all of the paperwork to the buyer’s solicitors. If applicable, your conveyancer must also evidence that the home loan has been discharged to the purchasers lawyers. There are no post completion steps just for conveyancing in Catshill.
Is it necessary during the course of the conveyancing process to pop into the offices of the solicitor to execute the mortgage deed? If so, I will appoint a lawyer who conducts conveyancing in Catshill so that I can attend their offices if required.

Are all Catshill Conveyancing Quality Solicitors on the Skipton conveyancing list of approved practices?

I had a mortgage agreed in principle with Principality. Catshill conveyancing practitioners were chosen. How long does it take for Principality to forward the offer to the conveyancing practitioner?
There is no definitive answer here. Have Principality completed the survey? Have you advised Principality as to your lawyers' details and checked that your lawyers are on the Principality conveyancing panel? It is not unusual for a mortgage offer to take a month to come through.
I have paid off my mortgage with Skipton. I assume I don't need a Catshill conveyancing practitioner on the Skipton panel to remove the mortgage at the Land Registry. Am I right?
If you have finished paying off your Skipton 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 Skipton mortgage from the register. Skipton, 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 Skipton has sent the Land Registry the discharge electronically, and
- Skipton has instructed the Land Registry to do so

My husband and I are FTB’s - agreed a price, yet the agent told us that the seller will only issue a contract if we use their recommended solicitors as they want a ‘quick sale’. We would rather use a high street solicitor with experience of conveyancing in Catshill
It is improbable the vendors are behind this. Should the seller require ‘a quick sale', taking such a hostile approach to a serious purchaser is going to damage their objectives. Speak to the owners direct and make the point that (a)you are keen to buy (b)you are excited to move forward, with finances in place © you do not need to sell (d) you wish to move quickly (e)but you are going to instruct your own,trusted Catshill conveyancing solicitors - not the ones that will provide their negotiator at the agency a introducer fee or hit his conveyancing targets demanded by senior management.
