We were just about to exchange contracts for a property in Llanidloes. We encountered a stumbling block. The loan offer with Halifax expires on 14/4/2025 but the vendors are insisting on a completion date of 16/4/2025. Can one prolong the mortgage offer?

I have today made my last payment due on my mortgage with Nationwide. I assume I don't need a Llanidloes conveyancer on the Nationwide panel to remove the mortgage at the Land Registry. Am I right?
If you have finished paying off your Nationwide 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 Nationwide mortgage from the register. Nationwide, 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 Nationwide has sent the Land Registry the discharge electronically, and
- Nationwide has instructed the Land Registry to do so
After what feels like an age I have had an offer on a flat in Llanidloes accepted, but there is a chain. The sellers have offered on a property, however it’s not yet agreed to, and have viewings of other apartments booked. I have selected a high street conveyancing solicitor in Llanidloes. What do I do now? When do I get the mortgage application with Barclays going?
It is usual to have anxieties where there is a chain as you are unlikely to want to be too out of pocket prematurely (home loan application is in the region of one thousand pounds, then survey, Llanidloes conveyancing search fees, etc). The first course of action is to ensure that your solicitor is on the Barclays conveyancing panel. Concerning the subsequent stages this very much depends on the uniqueness of your case, attraction to the property and on the state of the market. In a buoyant market many purchasers would apply for the mortgage with Barclays and arrange for the valuation and only if it was satisfactory would they pay their conveyancing practitioner to proceed with the conveyancing in Llanidloes.
How does conveyancing in Llanidloes differ for new build properties?
Most buyers of new build premises in Llanidloes approach us having been asked by the seller to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the premises is built. This is because developers in Llanidloes typically purchase 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 conveyancing solicitors 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 Llanidloes or who has acted in the same development.
