When will exchange of contracts happen for residential conveyancing in Hedon and do I need to attend the lawyers office?
If you are in close proximity to one of the conveyancing solicitors in Hedon you are invited in to sign the paperwork. That being said, the lender approved solicitors we recommend offer a national conveyancing service and provide just as comprehensive and professional a job for you when communicating with you by post or email. The executing of the purchase agreement is not the point of no return. Signing on the dotted line is just a prerequisite for the solicitor to address the formalities when the time is right, which will usually be very shortly after signing.

We are getting a further advance on our mortgage from RBS as we wish to conduct renovations to our home in Hedon. Do we need to select a high street Hedon solicitor on the RBS conveyancing panel to deal with the legals?

I have today made my last payment due on my mortgage with RBS. I assume I don't need a Hedon conveyancer on the RBS panel to discharge the mortgage at the Land Registry. Am I right?
If you have finished paying off your RBS mortgage, they may send you evidence showing that you have paid it off. Alternatively they may notify the Land Registry directly. The Land Registry need to see this evidence before they will remove the RBS mortgage from the register. RBS, 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:
- but are not moving to another property
- where RBS has sent the Land Registry the discharge electronically, and
- RBS has instructed the Land Registry to do so
I recently had an offer agreed on an apartment in Hedon. My financial adviser suggested a solicitor. I paid an advanced payment of £225. Not long after, the conveyancing practitioner called me sheepishly admitting that they were not on the Aldermore 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 Aldermore 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.

As far as conveyancing in Hedon registration is no faster or slower than the rest of the country. Rather than based on location, timescales can differ depending on the party submitting the application, whether there are errors and whether the Land registry must send notices to any interested parties. Currently in the region of 80% of such applications are completed within two weeks but occasionally there can be longer delays. Registration takes place once the purchaser has moved in to the premises therefore an expedited registration is not usually top priority but where it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your lawyers could communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for the application to be prioritised.
