We had selected conveyancing lawyers with offices in Kelsall on the Lloyds solicitor approved list. They have just invoiced me a further sum for dealing with the Lloyds mortgage. Is this an additional conveyancing fee specified by Lloyds?

Provided it is contained in their Terms of Engagement or Quote then yes your property lawyer may charge a fee for this. This fee is not set by Lloyds but by your Kelsall conveyancing practitioner. Some firms on the Lloyds panel will levy an ‘acting for lender’ fee but some practices include it on their overall fee.

I have today made my last payment due on my mortgage with Coventry BS. I assume I don't need a Kelsall property lawyer 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:

  1. but are not moving to another property
  2. where Coventry BS has sent the Land Registry the discharge electronically, and
  3. Coventry BS has instructed the Land Registry to do so
The Land Registry will send you a letter confirming that your Coventry BS mortgage has been paid off.

Lloyds have agreed my home loan in principle, my bid on a flat in Kelsall has been agreed to, what happens next?

The property agent will want to know who your solicitors are (make sure the lawyers are on the lender’s panel). Call up Lloyds or your broker and complete any relevant paperwork. Lloyds will instruct a valuer who will get in contact with the estate agent or vendor to schedule a time for the valuation to take place. Once carried out (assuming no problems) it takes on average a fortnight to receive the mortgage offer. Lloyds will issue the offer to you and your solicitors. The transaction will then take it’s course according the nature and complexity of the conveyancing in Kelsall.

I require fast conveyancing in Kelsall as I am faced with an ultimatum to complete inside one month. Thankfully I do not need a mortgage. Is it possible to escape the need for conveyancing searches to save money and time?

With lots of history conveyancing in Kelsall the following are examples of issues that can crop up and adversely affect future mortgageability: Refused Planning Applications, Outstanding Charges, Overdue Grants, Road Schemes,...

Me and my brother purchased a renovated Georgian property in Kelsall. Conveyancing solicitor represented me and Clydesdale. I happened to do a free search for it on the Land Registry database and I saw two entries: the first freehold, another for leasehold under the exact same address. Is it worth asking Clydesdale to clarify?

You need to read the Freehold register you have again and check the Charges Register for mention of a lease. The best way to be sure that you are also the registered proprietor of the leasehold and freehold title as well is to check (£3). It is not completely unheard of in Kelsall and other locations in the country and poses no real issues for owners other than when they sell they have to account for both freehold and leasehold interests when dealing with lenders. You can also check the situation with the conveyancing lawyer who conducted the purchase.

How does conveyancing in Kelsall differ for newly converted properties?

Most buyers of new build premises in Kelsall come to us having been asked by the developer to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the property is constructed. This is because developers in Kelsall 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 property lawyers 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 Kelsall or who has acted in the same development.
