I am aiming to move property in December. Should my conveyancing solicitor call the removal company on the day of completion. As an aside, can you suggest a removal company in Market Drayton. Conveyancing firm was organised before I stumbled across your website.
On the afternoon of completion you can pick up the house keys from your property agent but this should only occur once the vendors conveyancers inform the agent that they acknowledge receipt of the completion payment and the keys can be collected. Subsequently you will need to inform the removal men that they can start moving you in. As a matter of policy we do not suggest a particular removal company but can help you locate a conveyancing in Market Drayton or a legal practice with expertise in conveyancing in Market Drayton.
We had selected conveyancers located in Market Drayton on the TSB solicitor approved list. They are now charging me a further charge for dealing with the TSB mortgage. Is this an additional conveyancing fee specified by TSB?
Unfortunately, as long as it is in their Terms and Conditions or Quote then yes your property lawyer can levy a fee for this. This fee is not set by TSB but by your Market Drayton solicitor. Some firms on the TSB panel will charge ’dealing with mortgage’ fee but many practices include it on their overall fee.
I have today made my last payment due on my mortgage with Kent Reliance. I assume I don't need a Market Drayton property lawyer on the Kent Reliance panel to remove the mortgage at the Land Registry. Please confirm.
If you have finished paying off your Kent Reliance 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 Kent Reliance mortgage from the register. Kent Reliance, 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 Kent Reliance has sent the Land Registry the discharge electronically, and
- Kent Reliance has instructed the Land Registry to do so

The conventional set of completed inquiry forms given to a buyer’s conveyancer (where the solicitors are adopting what is known as the Conveyancing Protocol) includes a usual inquiry of the seller to find out if the property has historically flooded. If the residence has been flooded in past and is not revealed by the vendor, then a purchaser could issue a claim for damages resulting from an inaccurate reply. The purchaser’s lawyers will also carry out an enviro report. This should indicate if there is any known flood risk. If so, further inquiries will need to be initiated.
