My grandmother passed away last year and as sole heir and executor I was left the property in Parkwood Springs. The house had a small mortgage left on it of around £5k. I want to transfer the title deeds into my name whilst I re-mortgage to Coventry BS, pay off the mortgage. Is this allowed?
Given you plan to refinance then Coventry BS will require that you use a conveyancer on the Coventry BS conveyancing panel. Here is link to the Land Registry online guidance around what to do when a property owner dies. This will help you to understand the registration process behind changing the details re the registered title. in your case it would appear that you are effectively purchasing the property from the estate. Your Coventry BS conveyancing panel solicitor pays the new mortgage money into the estate, the estate pays off the old mortgage, the charge is released and you become the owner and the Coventry BS mortgage is registered as a charge at the Land Registry.
We are planning to move home in September. Will my conveyancing solicitor update the removal company on the day of completion. Incidentally, can you put forward a removal company in Parkwood Springs. Conveyancing solicitor was organised before I stumbled across your page.
On the afternoon of completion you will need to pick up the keys from your estate agent but this can only take place when the vendors conveyancers inform the agent that the monies to complete are in and the keys can be given over. After that you can advise the removal company that they can start moving you in. As a matter of policy we do not suggest a particular removal company but can assist you in finding a residential property solicitor in Parkwood Springs or a solicitor that specialises in conveyancing in Parkwood Springs.
My offer was accepted on a house in Parkwood Springs on 9/7/2025, valuation was booked 3 days later, all came back fine. Solicitor instructed, so the only thing outstanding was my mortgage offer. Having made daily calls to Nationwide and chasing them on my offer, I have now been told that my offer will not be issued unless the lawyer is on the Nationwide conveyancing panel. Are Nationwide entitled to hold back the Mortgage pending the lawyer being on the approved list?
A lender would not issue a mortgage until they have details of a lawyer on their panel. It can take a few weeks for Nationwide to deal with your lawyer's application to be on the Nationwide conveyancing panel. There's no guarantee that your solicitor will be accepted.
RBS have agreed my home loan in principle, my offer on a flat in Parkwood Springs has been accepted, what happens next?
The estate agent will need to know who your solicitors are (be sure the solicitors are on the bank’s panel). Contact RBS or the financial adviser and complete any relevant documentation. RBS will instruct a valuer who will get in touch with the selling agent or seller to schedule a time for the valuation to occur. Once conducted (assuming no problems) it takes on average a week to get a mortgage offer. RBS will send the offer to you and your solicitors. The legal work will then take it’s course according the nature and complexity of the conveyancing in Parkwood Springs.
Me and my brother purchased a 4 bedroom Victorian property in Parkwood Springs. Conveyancing practitioner represented me and Lloyds TSB Bank. I happened to do a free search for it on the Land Registry database and I saw a couple of entries: the first freehold, the second leasehold with the matching address. I'd like to know for sure, how can I find out??
You need to read the Freehold register you have again and check the Charges Register as there may be 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 Parkwood Springs and other areas of the country and poses no real issues for owners other than when they sell they have to account for both freehold and leasehold interests when dealing with lenders. You can also question the situation with your conveyancing solicitor who carried out the work.
I am buying a new build house in Parkwood Springs with a mortgage from Alliance & Leicester . The sellers would not move on the price so I negotiated five thousand pounds worth of extras instead. The house builders rep advised me not to tell my solicitor about the deal as it may affect my loan with the lender. Is this normal?.
All lenders require a Disclosure of Incentives Form from the builder of any new build, converted or renovated property, It is available online from the Lenders’ Handbook page on the CML website. CML form is completed and handed to the lender's surveyor when the inspection is done.
Lenders have different policies on incentives. Some accept none at all, cash or physical, while others will accept cash incentives up to 5%.
Hard to understand why the representative of a builder would be suggesting you withold information from a solicitor when all this will be clearly visible on forms the builder has to supply to its solicitor, the buyer's solicitor and the surveyor.
