I have today made my last payment due on my mortgage with Aldermore. I assume I don't need a Penylan solicitor on the Aldermore panel to discharge the mortgage at the Land Registry. Please confirm.
If you have finished paying off your Aldermore 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 Aldermore mortgage from the register. Aldermore, 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 Aldermore has sent the Land Registry the discharge electronically, and
- Aldermore has instructed the Land Registry to do so
How does conveyancing in Penylan differ for newly converted properties?
Most buyers of new build residence in Penylan come to us having been asked by the builder to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the property is completed. This is because house builders in Penylan usually purchase the real estate, 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 used to new build conveyancing in Penylan or who has acted in the same development.

If you know people who used your friend and the majority were happy that should surpass using an unfamiliar Penylan conveyancing solicitor just because they are Penylan based.
Me and my partner have today had a bid accepted on our first house in Penylan, and are now looking to get solicitors lined up. I have made use of the various rating tools and the results are from all across the the UK. Is it critical to have a Penylan lawyer local to the prospective house? I am content to do all the communicating over the internet, but I am thinking at some stage we will be required to visit the conveyancer's office to sign documents?
Generally there is no need to attend the office of your conveyancer, they can send any relevant contracts to you, which you can sign and return. Many buyers and sellers nevertheless opt to use a locally based solicitor, but it's by no means a prerequisite for conveyancing in Penylan.
