When it comes to conveyancing in Kingsley getting recommendations is a sensible starting point. Before you go ahead, check if they offer a no sale no fee offer.

We are getting a further advance on our mortgage from Skipton as we wish to carry out a loft conversion to our home in Kingsley. Do we need to choose a bricks and mortar Kingsley solicitor on the Skipton conveyancing panel to deal with the legals?

Skipton do not ordinarily require a member of their conveyancing panel to handle such a matter. If they do require any legal work then you would need to ensure that such a lawyer was on the Skipton conveyancing panel.

My wife and I own a renovated Victorian property in Kingsley. Conveyancing practitioner acted for me and National Westminster Bank. I happened to do a free search for it on the Land Registry database and I saw a couple of entries: one for freehold, another for leasehold with the matching property. If a house is not a freehold shouldn't I have been informed?

You should 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 Kingsley and other locations in the country and poses no real issues for owners other than when they remortgage they have to account for both freehold and leasehold interests when dealing with purchasers. You can also question the situation with the conveyancing lawyer who completed the work.

How does conveyancing in Kingsley differ for new build properties?

Most buyers of new build or newly converted property in Kingsley come to us having been asked by the builder to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the residence is built. This is because developers in Kingsley tend to purchase the site, 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 accustomed to new build conveyancing in Kingsley or who has acted in the same development.

Do I stop my mortgage payments with Yorkshire BS once a completion date for my sale in Kingsley has been set?

No, you should keep paying any mortgage payments to Yorkshire BS pending the mortgage being repaid on completion as part of your Kingsley conveyancing.
