Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Conisbrough

I am in a contract race with another buyer for a property in Conisbrough. What can I do to speed up matters?

In a situation where the seller is applying pressure for your conveyancing it is advisable to make sure that your conveyancer is familiar with the location as they will have local relationships and know-how. It is even conceivable that they may have conducted previoushouses in the same street. You would be best advised to use a Conisbrough conveyancing lawyer. In addition, check that the conveyancing firm is on the lender panel. It is understood that just under twenty per cent of Conisbrough conveyancing transactions are frustrated or jeopardised after finding out that a buyer’s conveyancer was not on their mortgage lender’s member panel. This can often result in the legal process being delayed by as much as three weeks. It is understood that this issue affects in the region of one hundred thousand home moves every year. Almost all Conisbrough conveyancing practices can not act for certain banks so do check as early as possible.

We intend to purchase a newbuild apartment in Conisbrough with a homeloan from Aldermore.We have a Conisbrough conveyancing lawyer but Aldermore informed us his firm is not on their approved list of firms. We have to appoint a Aldermore panel lawyer or retain our high street solicitor and fork out for one of their panel ones to represent them. This seems very unfair; is there anything we can do?

No, not really. The loan issued to you contains various provisions, one of which will be that lawyers must be on the Aldermore approved list. Until recently, most lenders had large numbers of law firms on their panels: a borrower could choose 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. A further alternative is for your solicitors to apply to be on the conveyancing panel for Aldermore

Can you point me to a directory of RBS panel conveyancers in Conisbrough on the Council of Mortgage Lender’s Website?

No. There is no such directory service on the CML or Building Society Association sites. A small selection of lending institutions make their panel listings available over the internet. If you are looking for a Conisbrough lawyer on the RBS please make the most of our tool.

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

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

It is unclear whether my mortgage offer requires a lease extension. I have telephoned my Conisbrough building society branch on numerous occasions and was informed it wasn't an issue and they will lend. My Conisbrough conveyancing solicitor - who is on the bank conveyancing panel- called and was told they refuse to lend based on their specific requirements. Who do I believe?

Your conveyancing practitioner has to follow the CML Handbook Part 2 provisions for your bank. Unless your lawyer obtains specific confirmation in writing that the mortgage company will go ahead, your lawyer has no choice but to refrain from exchanging contract and committing you to the purchase. We would suggest that you ask the bank to contact your lawyer in writing confirming that they will accept the number of years left on the lease.

I have justdiscovered that Arc property Solicitors have been shut down. They carried out my conveyancing in Conisbrough for a purchase of a freehold house 18 months ago. How can I check that my home is in my name in the name of the former proprietor?

The quickest way to see if the premises is in your name, you can carry out a search of the land registry (£3.00). You can either do this yourself or ask a law firm to do this for you. If you are not registered you can seek help from one of a number of Conisbrough conveyancing specialists.

Yesterday I discovered that there is a flying freehold issue on a house I have offered on two weeks back in what was supposed to be a quick, no chain conveyancing. Conisbrough is where the house is located. Can you shed any light on this issue?

Flying freeholds in Conisbrough are rare but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Conisbrough you would need to get your solicitor to go through the deeds very carefully. Your mortgage company may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Conisbrough may determine that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold residence.

I was advised by a few selling agents in Conisbrough to find a property lawyer on your site. What’s the financial upside for Estate Agents to offer your services rather than another?

We don’t offer any commission for sending work our way. We found it would be just too difficult to pay a commission because members of the public would think, ‘Why is the agent getting a kickback? Why aren’t I getting any benefit too?’ We would prefer to grow our business on genuine recommendations.
