We were just about to sign contracts for a freehold house in Northwich. We have hit a problem. Our mortgage offer with TSB expires on 5/10/2026 but the vendors are putting forward a completion date of 7/10/2026. Can one extend the mortgage offer?

What happens if my lawyer’s firm is removed from the Co-operative Conveyancing panel ahead of completing my conveyancing in Northwich?

First, this is very unlikely to happen. In most cases even where a law firm is removed off of a panel the lender would allow the completion to go ahead as the lender would appreciate the difficulties that they would place you in if you have to instruct a new solicitor days before completion. In a worst case scenario where the lender insists that you instruct a new firm then it is possible for a very good lawyer to expedite the conveyancing albeit that you may pay a significant premium for this. The analogous situation is where a buyer instructs a lawyer, exchanges contracts and the law firm is shut down by a regulator such as the SRA. Again, in this situation you can find lawyers who can troubleshoot their way to bring the conveyancing to a satisfactory conclusion - albeit at a cost.

We are planning to move property in October. Does my conveyancing solicitor communicate with the removal company on the completion day. On a separate note, can you put forward a removal company in Northwich. Conveyancing lawyer was organised before I stumbled across this page.

On the afternoon of completion you will need to pick up the house keys from the property agent however this can only happen once the vendors lawyers confirm to the agent that they have the completion monies and the keys can be given over. After that you will need to advise the removal company that they can start moving you in. As a matter of policy we do not recommend a specific removal company but can help you find a conveyancing in Northwich or a firm that specialises in conveyancing in Northwich.

I am buying a end of terrace house in Northwich. We would like to convert the garage to a playroom at the house.Will legal conveyancing on the property involve investigations to determine if these works are allowed?

Your property lawyer will check the registered title as conveyancing in Northwich will sometimes reveal restrictions in the title documents which restrict certain works or require the consent of a 3rd party. Many works call for local authority planning consent and approval in compliance with building regulations. Many locations are designated conservation areas and special planning restrictions apply which often prevent or impact extensions.

I have a mortgage with Santander for my property in Northwich. Conveyancing was finalised some time ago. If I am intending to rent out the flat and do not currently have a buy-to-let mortgage do I need to remortgage to a BTL mortgage or inform Santander?

Your original mortgage agreement with Santander will provide that you need their approval prior to renting your property as this is likely to be a breach of Santander’s mortgage conditions. In many cases banks or building societies will permit you to let out your former home without needing to switch to a buy-to-let mortgage but some lenders will add a surcharge to your mortgage rate to reflect the higher risk. You should contact Santander directly. It should not be necessary to do this via a Santander conveyancing panel solicitor.

Despite weeks of looking the Title Certificate and documents to my home can not be found. The solicitors who dealt with the conveyancing in Northwich 4 years ago no longer exist. Will I be able to sell the house?

Assuming the title is registered the details of your ownership will be retained by HMLR under a Title Number. It is possible to perform a search at the Land Registry, identify your property and secure up to date copies of the Registered Entries for less than a fiver. Where the title is Leasehold then the Land Registry will in most cases hold a file copy of the Registered Lease and again, a copy can be retrieved for a small fee.

I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold element on a property I put an offer in a fortnight ago in what was supposed to be a straight forward, no chain conveyancing. Northwich is the location of the property. Can you shed any light on this issue?

Flying freeholds in Northwich are unusual but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Northwich you would need to get your solicitor to go through the deeds thoroughly. Your bank may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Northwich may ascertain that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold property.
