Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Eaglescliffe

I am not in a position to travel far from Eaglescliffe. Is there a reason why all Eaglescliffe conveyancers aren't included on all bank panels?

Lenders highlight the fact that solicitor-led fraud is considered to be responsible for millions of pounds of fraud annually.The dismissal of law firms from lender panels started with the rise in mortgage fraud, which prompted a thematic review by the Financial Services Authority in 2011. Its outcome included recommendations for mortgage companies to review their conveyancing panels, which triggered a major policy change in the sector. This led to lenders purging a number of firms off their panel of approved solicitors .

Have just purchased a repossessed house at auction in Eaglescliffe. Conveyancing is needed. What are my next steps?

Given that you are now exchanged you should choose a conveyancing practitioner as a matter of urgency as you will have a tight deadline in which to complete the conveyancing. All auction property should have a bespoke legal set of papers. This should include most,if not all of the documents that your lawyer requires. If you have purchased leasehold premises the auction papers should provide a copy of the lease, management information and a sellers leasehold information form and other conveyancing documentation pertinent to a leasehold property. You should give this to your appointed conveyancing solicitor at the earliest opportunity. Do make sure that your finances are organised to complete the transaction on the set completion date.

I happen to be the only recipient of my late mum's will and I have everything in my name alone, including the house in Eaglescliffe. The Eaglescliffe property was put into my name in April. I now wish to sell up. I understand that there is a Mortgage Lenders 6 month 'rule', which means that my proprietorship could be considered the same way as if I'd bought the property in April. Will no one buy the property for half a year?

The CML handbook requires conveyancers to: "report to us immediately if the owner or registered proprietor has been registered for less than six months." Technically you could be caught by that. many lenders would take a sensible view as this provision is chiefly there to capture subsales or the quick reselling of properties.

I recently had an offer agreed on an apartment in Eaglescliffe. My mortgage broker recommended their conveyancers. I paid an upfront payment of £225. A couple of days later, the property lawyer called me sheepishly admitting that they were not on the Bank of Ireland conveyancing panel. Am I right in thinking that I should be due a refund?

You should be able to recover this from the law firm if they were not on the Bank of Ireland panel. They should have asked at the outset which lender you were obtaining a mortgage with. An important lesson to readers of this site is to check that the lawyers are on the appropriate lender panel.
