Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Jarrow

My mortgage broker requires my Jarrow law firm’s panel reference for the HSBC conveyancing panel. What is the best way to discover this. I have tried my local Jarrow branch but they don't know it.

You are best placed to get this information from your Jarrow lawyer . Most Jarrow law firms will keep a file or database of lender panel information which would include, if applicable, their conveyancing panel details for each lender.

Do I need to visit the offices of the solicitor to execute the legal charge? If so, I will appoint a lawyer who conducts conveyancing in Jarrow so that I can pop in to their offices if necessary.

Most approved lawyers for mortgage companies carry out their work via the post, internet or over the phone. This enables them to undertake the legal work for your home move no matter where you live in the country. That being said you can see if you can still book an appointment to visit conveyancing lawyer if needed.

After weeks of negotiation I have agreed a price on a house in Jarrow. My mortgage broker recommended their conveyancers. I paid an advanced payment of £225. Soon after, the solicitor called me sheepishly admitting that they were not on the UBS 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 UBS 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.

I had an offer accepted on an apartment in Jarrow on 23/5/2025, valuation was booked five days later, all came back fine. Conveyancer appointed, so the only thing outstanding was my mortgage offer. Having made daily calls to Co-operative and chasing them on my offer, I have now been told that my offer will not be issued unless the lawyer is on the Co-operative conveyancing panel. Can the lender hold off the offer?

Mortgage companies tend not to not issue an offer until they have details of a lawyer on their panel. It can take a few weeks for Co-operative to deal with your lawyer's application to be on the Co-operative conveyancing panel. There's no guarantee that your solicitor will be accepted.

I have instructed a Jarrow lawyer having checked that they are on the Barclays conveyancing panel. Does my lawyer arrange the survey of the property?

Barclays will need an independent valuation of the property. Your lawyer will not arrange this. Usually Barclays will appoint their own surveyor to do this, and you will have to pay for it. Remember that this is a valuation for mortgage purposes and not a survey. You may wish to consider appointing your own Jarrow surveyor to carry out a survey or prepare a home buyers report on the property. It is up to you to satisfy yourself that the property is structurally sound before you buy it. If the survey or report reveals that building work is needed, you should tell your solicitor. You may wish to renegotiate with the seller.

Are there restrictive covenants that are commonly picked up as part of conveyancing in Jarrow?

Restrictive covenants can be picked up when reviewing land registry title as part of the legal transfer of property in Jarrow. An 1874 stipulation that was seen was ‘The houses to be erected on the estate are each to be of a uniform elevation in accordance with the drawings to be prepared or approved by the vendor’s surveyor…’

How does conveyancing in Jarrow differ for newly converted properties?

Most buyers of new build residence in Jarrow come to us having been asked by the developer to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the premises is completed. This is because developers in Jarrow tend to buy the land, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct conveyancers as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are used to new build conveyancing in Jarrow or who has acted in the same development.
