Is it the case that all Kenton CQS (Conveyancing Quality Scheme) solicitors are on the TSB conveyancing panel?

Some major lenders now make use of CQS as the starting point for Panel approval such as HSBC and Santander. CQS membership however is no guarantee to lender panel acceptance. That being said,the Council of Mortgage Lenders have indicated that it is likely to become a pre-requisite for solicitors wishing to remain on their approved list of firms.

Two weeks ago we had a mortgage agreed in principle with Yorkshire BS. Kenton conveyancing practitioners are instructed. What is the average time that one could expect to receive a mortgage offer from Yorkshire BS?

Some lenders take longer than others. Have Yorkshire BS done the survey? Have you advised Yorkshire BS as to your lawyers' details and checked that your lawyers are on the Yorkshire BS conveyancing panel? Sometimes it can take as long as six weeks for a mortgage offer to be issued.

We have agreed to purchase a house in Kenton. An unusual aspect is that the roof has a solar panel. Solicitors conducting should look into this right? Will my lender Nationwide be concerned?

As your lender is Nationwide your lawyer must comply with the conveyancing instructions contained in Part 2 of UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook for Nationwide. The CML Handbook stipulates minimum specifications for solar panel roof-space leases, and conveyancers are required to report to Nationwide where a lease does not comply with these specifications. The conditions relate to the installation of panels on properties countrywide and is not restricted to Kenton.

What can a local search tell me about the house my wife and I buying in Kenton?

Kenton conveyancing often commences with the applying for local authority searches directly from your local Authority or via a personal search company for example PSG The local search plays an important role in most Kenton conveyancing purchase; as long as you don’t want any nasty surprises after you move into your property. The search will supply information on, amongst other things, details on planning applications applicable to the premises (whether granted or refused), building control history, any enforcement action, restrictions on permitted development, nearby road schemes, contaminated land and radon gas; in all a total of thirteen topic headings.

I bought my flat on 4 August and the transaction details is yet to be registered. Should I be concerned? My conveyancing solicitor in Kenton said it should be recorded inside ten days. Are titles in Kenton uniquely lengthy to register?

There is nothing unique about conveyancing in Kenton registration formalities. Rather than based on location, timeframes can adjust subject to the party submitting the application, whether there are errors and whether the Land registry need to notify any 3rd parties. As of today roughly 80% of submission are fully addressed within 12 days but some can be subject to extensive delays. Historically registration takes place after the purchaser is living at the property thus an expedited registration is not usually top priority yet where there is a degree of urgency associated with the registration then you or your conveyancer must contact the land registry and explain the circumstances.

I decided to have a survey done on a property in Kenton prior to retaining conveyancers. I have been informed that there is a flying freehold overhang to the property. My surveyor advised that some mortgage companies will refuse to give a loan on this type of premises.

It varies from the lender to lender. Bank of Scotland has different instructions from Nationwide. Should you wish to call us we can check with the relevant bank. If you lender is happy to lend one our lawyers can assist as they are used to dealing with flying freeholds in Kenton. Conveyancing may be slightly more expensive based on your lender's requirements.

My conveyancer (approximately 260 kilometers from meneeds me to execute a stat dec ahead of the transaction finalising. Could you suggest a conveyancing solicitor in Kenton to witness and place their company stamp on the document?

strictly speaking you are not likely to need to have the documents attested by a conveyancing solicitor. Ordinarily or notary public or qualified solicitor will do regardless of whether they are Kenton based
