I can't travel far from Irthlingborough. Please spell out why all Irthlingborough conveyancing practitioners aren't included on all mortgage company panels?
Banks normally impose restrictions on either the type or volume of conveyancing practices on their panel. A common example of such criteria being that the practice needs to have two or more partners. In addition to restricting the type of firm, some banks decided to reduce the number of conveyancers they permit to act for them. It is worth noting that banks have no responsibility for the standard of advice given by any Irthlingborough solicitor on their panel. Mortgage fraud was the primary trigger for the reduction of conveyancing panels from 2008 even though there are opposing views about whether solicitors sat at the center of that fraud. Data via HMLR reveal that thousands of law firms only transact one or two conveyances annually. Those vindicating conveyancing panel pruning ask why law firms deserve any entitlement to remain on a bank panel when it is apparent that property law is not their speciality?
Are the Irthlingborough conveyancing solicitors identified as being on the Lloyds conveyancing panel, together with their details provided by Lloyds?

We have a mortgage agreed in principle with Nationwide. Irthlingborough conveyancing lawyers were instructed. How long does it take for Nationwide to issue the offer to the lawyer?
There is no definitive answer here. Have Nationwide conducted the survey? Have you advised Nationwide as to your lawyers' details and checked that your lawyers are on the Nationwide conveyancing panel? Sometimes it can take as long as six weeks for a mortgage offer to be issued.
I have paid off my mortgage with Coventry BS. I assume I don't need a Irthlingborough conveyancer on the Coventry BS panel to discharge the mortgage at the Land Registry. Am I right?
If you have finished paying off your Coventry BS 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 Coventry BS mortgage from the register. Coventry BS, 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 Coventry BS has sent the Land Registry the discharge electronically, and
- Coventry BS has instructed the Land Registry to do so
Our sealed bid on a detached house in Irthlingborough has been agreed to, but there is a chain. The owners have placed an offer on somewhere, but it’s not yet tied up, and have viewings of other properties in the pipeline. I have chosen a high street conveyancing solicitor in Irthlingborough. What do I do now? At what point should I apply for the mortgage with Nationwide?
It is understandable to have apprehensions where there is a chain as you are unlikely to want to incur costs too early (mortgage application is approx one thousand pounds, then survey, Irthlingborough conveyancing search costs, etc). The first thing to do is ensure that your lawyer is on the Nationwide conveyancing panel. Concerning the next phase this very much dictated by the uniqueness of your transaction, motivation for this property and on the state of the market. During a hot market many buyers would apply for a home loan with Nationwide and pay for the valuation and only if it was satisfactory would they pay their solicitor to move forward with the conveyancing in Irthlingborough.

I am tempted by the attractive purchase price for a couple of maisonettes in Irthlingborough both have in the region of forty five years left on the lease term. Do I need to be concerned?
A lease is a legal document that entitles you to use the premises for a prescribed time frame. As the lease shortens the saleability of the lease decreases and results in it becoming more costly to extend the lease. For this reason it is advisable to extend the lease term. More often than not it is difficult to sell a property with a short lease as mortgage lenders less inclined to grant a loan on properties of this type. Lease extension can be a protracted process. We recommend you seek professional assistance from a solicitor and surveyor with experience in this arena.
