It has taken forever and a day but a loan offer from Santander for the remortgage of my single room apartment is to be issued within the next few days. Could you put forward a cheap conveyancing practitioner in Derbyshire?
You are on the wrong site if you are in need of cut-price fees for conveyancing in Derbyshire. Our aim is to provide excellent value conveyancing but we do not advertise as being the cheapest. Do not be fooled by companies offering £100 conveyancing in Derbyshire. In your best case scenario, in choosing a lawyer for low cost conveyancing, you will get your money’s worth and at worst you will end up being stung for additional fees and still not receive the service expected.
My partner and I intend to remortgage our penthouse in Derbyshire with RBS. We have a son 19 who lives with us. Our solicitor requested us to identify any adults other than ourselves who lives in the flat. The solicitor has now sent a form for our son to sign, giving up any rights in the event that the apartment is repossessed. I have a couple of questions (1) Is this form unique to the RBS conveyancing panel as he never had to sign this form when we bought 5 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 RBS. This is solely used to protect RBS 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 RBS 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.

With 59 years unexpired we estimate the price of your lease extension to range between £20,900 and £24,200 plus costs.
The suggested premium range that we have given is a general guide to costs for extending a lease, but we cannot give you a more accurate figure in the absence of detailed investigations. You should not use the figures in a Notice of Claim or as an informal offer. There may be other issues that need to be considered and you obviously should be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. You should not take any other action based on this information without first getting professional advice.
I'm remortgaging a bungalow in Derbyshire. I can find my conveyancer's company on the CLC list, but I can't locate my conveyancer's name on the list. Should I be concerned?
Not every individual in the practice must be listed by the regulator. Provided there is a manager qualified to 'oversee' the conveyancing, the actual day-to-day activity can be conducted by unqualified staff.
