I currently have a mortgage with Yorkshire BS for my property in Holloway. Conveyancing was finalised months ago. In the event that I decide to rent out my property and do not currently have a buy-to-let mortgage do I need to remortgage to a buy-to-let mortgage or inform Yorkshire BS?

Your original mortgage agreement with Yorkshire BS will provide that you need their approval prior to renting your property as this is likely to be a breach of Yorkshire BS’s mortgage conditions. It may be that Yorkshire BS will allow you to rent 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 Yorkshire BS directly. It should not be necessary to do this via a Yorkshire BS conveyancing panel solicitor.

My sealed bid on a property in Holloway has been accepted, but there is a chain. The owners have placed an offer on somewhere, however it’s not yet tied up, and are looking at other properties booked. I have selected a nearby conveyancing solicitor in Holloway. What do I do now? At what stage should I apply for the mortgage with Skipton?

It is normal to have anxieties where there is a chain as you are unlikely to want to be too out of pocket too early (mortgage application is in the region of £1k, then survey, Holloway conveyancing search charges, etc). The first course of action is to check that your lawyer is on the Skipton conveyancing panel. As to the next steps this very much dictated by the circumstances of your transaction, desire for the property and on the state of the market. During a rising market many buyers will apply for the mortgage with Skipton and pay for the valuation and only if it was satisfactory would they pay their lawyer to move forward with the conveyancing in Holloway.

I used Action Conveyancing a few years past for my conveyancing in Holloway. I now require my file but cannot find the solicitor. What do I do?

You will need to provide the SRA with as much information as possible to assist their search, including the name and address in Holloway of the conveyancing firm of solicitors you previously retained, the name of conveyancing solicitor with whom you had dealings, and the date on which you last had dealings with the firm.

I opted to have a survey carried out on a property in Holloway ahead of instructing solicitors. I have been informed that there is a flying freehold element to the property. The surveyor has said that some lenders may refuse to issue a mortgage on this type of premises.

It varies from the lender to lender. Lloyds has different requirements from Nationwide. If you e-mail us we can look into this further via the relevant lender. If you lender is happy to lend one our lawyers can assist as they are used to dealing with flying freeholds in Holloway. Conveyancing will be smoother if you use a solicitor in Holloway especially if they are familiar with such properties in Holloway.

I'm converting the mortgage on my primary home to a BTL mortgage with Accord Mortgages Ltd and intend to use the remaining equity as a deposit on a second house. The location we are looking at is Holloway. Will your lawyers be able to act for the two lenders and link together the two deals?

Make use of our comparison tool on this site to check that the lawyers are approved by both banks. Assuming that they are your conveyancer should be able to connect the two conveyancing matters but you should have a chat with you lawyer and make apparent your expectations and needs.
