Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Parson Cross

I am not in a position to travel far from Parson Cross. What is the rationale as to why all Parson Cross solicitors aren't automatically on all lender panels?

Mortgage companies highlight the fact that solicitor-led fraud is thought to be responsible for millions of pounds of fraud every year.The elimination of law firms off of lender panels started with the rise in mortgage fraud, which prompted a thematic review by the FSA in 2011. Its outcome included recommendations for mortgage companies to review their conveyancing panels, which kicked off a major policy change in the sector. This resulted in lenders purging less reputable firms off their books of approved property lawyers .

I am purchasing a property in Parson Cross. A rare aspect is that the roof has a solar panel. Solicitors conducting should look into this right? Will my lender UBS be concerned?

As you are obtaining a mortgage with UBS your lawyer must comply with the formal instructions contained in Part 2 of UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook for UBS. The Council of Mortgage Lenders’ Handbook sets out minimum provisions for solar panel roof-space leases, and conveyancing practitioners are required to report to UBS where a lease does not comply with these provisions. The conditions relate to the installation of panels on properties in England and Wales and is not limited to Parson Cross.

I have paid off my mortgage with Santander. I assume I don't need a Parson Cross conveyancing practitioner on the Santander panel to remove the mortgage at the Land Registry. Please confirm.

If you have finished paying off your Santander 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 Santander mortgage from the register. Santander, 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:

  1. but are not moving to another property
  2. where Santander has sent the Land Registry the discharge electronically, and
  3. Santander has instructed the Land Registry to do so
The Land Registry will send you a letter confirming that your Santander mortgage has been paid off.

Clydesdale have agreed my mortgage in principle, my offer on a house in Parson Cross has been accepted, what happens next?

The property agent will wish to know who your solicitors are (ensure that the property lawyers are on the lender’s approved list). Contact Clydesdale or the financial adviser and complete any appropriate documentation. Clydesdale will sellect a valuer who will get in touch with the estate agent or vendor to arrange a time for the valuation to occur. Once carried out (assuming no problems) it takes about ten days for the mortgage offer to be issued. Clydesdale will send the offer to you and your lawyers. The legal work will then take it’s course according the nature and complexity of the conveyancing in Parson Cross.

The estate agent has sent us the confirmation of our purchase of a new build flat in Parson Cross. Conveyancing is necessary evil at the best of times but I have never purchased a new build flat before. What sort of enquires would be asked in new build legal work.

Set out below is a sample of a few leasehold new build enquiries that you should expect your new-build leasehold conveyancing in Parson Cross

    The Landlord must covenant to assume the management if the Management Company goes into liquidation or otherwise defaults in running the management scheme. Where service of notices and proceedings can be at the property demised please confirm that this can be amended to include simultaneous services at the Lessees’ solicitors’ offices where the Lessee from time to time is not resident in the UK - such solicitors may be varied by notice in writing to the Landlord from time to time but otherwise will be as previously specified. Forfeiture - bankruptcy or liquidation must not apply under this provision. Has the Lease plan been approved by the Land Registry and if not when will they be lodged for this purpose?

Yesterday I discovered that there is a flying freehold element on a property I have offered on two weeks back in what should have been a quick, no chain conveyancing. Parson Cross is where the house is located. What do you suggest?

Flying freeholds in Parson Cross are rare but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even though you don't necessarily need a conveyancing solicitor in Parson Cross you would need to get your solicitor to go through the deeds very carefully. Your lender may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Parson Cross may determine 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.

Is it simple use your search tool to select a conveyancing lawyer in Parson Cross on the approved list for my lender?
