I'm the only beneficiary of my late mum's estate with all property in now in my sole name, including the my former home in East Barming. Conveyancing formalities meant that the Land Registry date was in June. I now wish to sell up. I do know about the Mortgage Lenders six month 'rule', which means that my proprietorship could be treated the same way as if I'd bought the property in June. Will no one buy the property for half a year?
The CML handbook requires solicitors to: "report to us immediately if the owner or registered proprietor has been registered for less than six months." By the strict wording you could be affected by that. How sensible a view banks take of it, depend on the lender as this requirement chiefly exists to pick up on the purchase and immediately sell or the flipping of property.
When it comes to mortgage companies such as TSB, do East Barming conveyancing practitioners have to pay a fee to be on the list of approved solicitors?
We are not aware of any bank fees to register on their list of approved firms, although some do levy an administration fee to deal with the processing of the conveyancing panel submission.
I am expecting a DIP from Co-operative this week so we know how much we could potentially offer as otherwise we only have online calculators to go by (which aren't taking into account credit checks etc). Do Co-operative recommend any East Barming solicitors on the Co-operative conveyancing panel, or is it better to find our own lawyer?
You will need to appoint East Barming solicitors independently although you'll need to choose one on the Co-operative conveyancing panel. The solicitor represents both you and Co-operative through the process.

Yesterday I discovered that there is a flying freehold element on a house I put an offer in last month in what was supposed to be a straight forward, chain free conveyancing. East Barming is the location of the property. Can you shed any light on this issue?
Flying freeholds in East Barming are rare but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside East Barming you would need to get your solicitor to go through the deeds diligently. Your lender may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in East Barming may decide 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.

There are a lot of houses in East Barming on private lanes. My husband and I are buying such a property. Are there any advantages to purchasing a house on a privately owned road?
East Barming conveyancing firms will be used to transacting propertieson private. The lawyer should review the Land Registry data to find any rights or responsibilities. In many cases there is a management company (wholly owned by residents) that proprietors pay into to maintain the road. If one exists, the road should be maintained and look nicer than council owned.
