I currently have a mortgage with Nottingham for my property in Hedge End. Conveyancing has been completed some time ago. If I am intending to rent out my property and do not currently have a buy-to-let mortgage do I need to remortgage to a BTL mortgage or inform Nottingham?

Your original mortgage agreement with Nottingham will provide that you need their approval prior to letting out your property as this is likely to be a breach of Nottingham’s mortgage conditions. In many cases banks or building societies will permit you to let out your former home without needing to switch to a buy-to-let mortgage but some lenders will add a surcharge to your mortgage rate to reflect the higher risk. You should contact Nottingham directly. You need not do this via a Nottingham conveyancing panel solicitor.

I recently had an offer accepted on an apartment in Hedge End. My mortgage broker recommended their conveyancers. I paid an advanced payment of £175.

You should be able to recover this from the law firm if they were not on the Principality 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.

Just bought a detached house in Hedge End , What is the estimated time for the Land Registry to record my title? My Hedge End conveyancing solicitor has been painfully slow, so I want to be sure that my name is recorded.

As far as conveyancing in Hedge End is concerned, registration is no faster or slower than the rest of the country. As opposed to being determined by geographic area, timescales can differ according to who lodges the application, whether there are errors and if the Land registry need to notify any other persons or bodies.
