My grandmother passed away six months ago and as sole heir and executor I was left the property in Endon. The house had a small mortgage remaining of approximately £4500. I want to transfer the title deeds into my name whilst I re-mortgage to HSBC, pay off the mortgage. Is this allowed?
If you plan to re-mortgage then HSBC will insist on your using a conveyancer on the HSBC conveyancing panel. Here is link to the Land Registry online guidance around what to do when a property owner dies. This will help you to understand the registration process behind changing the details re the registered title. in your case it would appear that you are effectively purchasing the property from the estate. Your HSBC conveyancing panel solicitor pays the new mortgage money into the estate, the estate pays off the old mortgage, the charge is released and you become the owner and the HSBC mortgage is registered as a charge at the Land Registry.
We are aiming to move property in January. Should my conveyancing solicitor call the removal company on the day of completion. Incidentally, can you put forward a removal company in Endon. Conveyancing firm was organised prior to coming across this website.
On the day of completion you can pick up the house keys from the estate agent but this should only be done when the vendors conveyancers advise the agent that they have the completion monies and the keys can be released. Subsequently you can advise the removal company that you are ready to move in. As a matter of policy we do not recommend a specific removal organisation but can help you find a conveyancing in Endon or a legal practice with expertise in conveyancing in Endon.

During a buoyant market some home buyers would apply for the mortgage with Co-operative and pay for the valuation and only if it was satisfactory would they pay their solicitor to press on with the conveyancing in Endon.
It has been 2 months since my purchase conveyancing in Endon completed. I have checked the Land Registry site which shows that I paid £150,000 when infact I paid £170,000. Why the discrepancy?
The price paid figure is taken from the application to register the purchase. It is the figure included in the Transfer (the legal deed which transfers the asset from one person to the other) and referred to as the 'consideration' or purchase price. You can report an error in the price paid figure using the LR online form. In most cases errors result from typos so at first glance the figure. Do report it so they can double check and advise.
