Every auction property should have an associated legal set of papers. This will likely include most,if not all of the paperwork that your lawyer requires. Where you are dealing with leasehold premises the legal pack may include a copy of the lease, management information and a sellers leasehold information form and associated conveyancing documentation relating to leasehold premises.

The Land Registry need to see this evidence before they will remove the TSB mortgage from the register. TSB, 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 TSB has sent the Land Registry the discharge electronically, and
  3. TSB has instructed the Land Registry to do so
The Land Registry will send you a letter confirming that your TSB mortgage has been paid off.
