My partner and I intend to remortgage our apartment in Claverley with Co-operative. We have a son 18 who lives at home. 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 forfeited by the lender. I have two questions (1) Is this form unique to the Co-operative conveyancing panel as he never had to sign this form when we bought 3 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 Co-operative. This is solely used to protect Co-operative 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 Co-operative 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.

I'm buying my first flat in Claverley with a mortgage from Santander. The sellers would not budge the amount so I negotiated five thousand pounds worth of fixtures and fittings instead. The house builders rep told me not to tell my lawyer about the extras as it could affect my loan with the bank. Do I keep my lawyer in the dark?.

My a decade ago. He has been married, divorced and has recently married again. He will be selling the apartment in a few months. I think he will just be requested to supply copies of his marriage certificates to the conveyancer but he is anxious it will delay the sale of the flat. Is it worth updating the Land Registry details for the house?
The is no need to update the title for the property as long as you have the evidence needed to demonstrate how the change of name resulted.
Any purchaser’s property lawyer should examine the registered entries and request evidence to prove the change of name for example marriage documentation.
