My solicitor has uncovered a a legal deficiency with the lease for the apartment we are buying in Piccadilly. The other side have offered title insurance as a solution. We are content with insurance and will cover the costs. Our solicitor has advised that he must be satisfied that the mortgage company is content with this solution. Are we the client or is the bank?

Regardless of the fact that you have a mortgage offer from the lender does not mean to say that the property will meet their provisions for the purposes of a mortgage. Your lawyer has to ensure that the lease has to comply with the UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook provisions. You and the mortgage company are the client. These conveyancing instructions have to be complied with.

I recently had an offer agreed on a house in Piccadilly. My mortgage broker pressured me to appoint their property lawyer. I paid an on account payment of £200. A couple of days later, the conveyancing practitioner contacted me sheepishly admitting that they were not on the Co-operative conveyancing panel. Am I right in thinking that I should be due a refund?

You should be able to recover this from the law firm if they were not on the Co-operative panel. They should have asked at the outset which lender you were obtaining a mortgage with. An important lesson to readers of this site is to check that the lawyers are on the appropriate lender panel.

I was told two weeks ago that my mortgage has been agreed to by HSBC. Is it usual for HSBC to only issue the offer once my solicitor in Piccadilly is approved on their conveyancing panel? HSBC have asked my solicitor to see a copy of their PI Insurance.

Mortgage companies tend not to not issue an offer until they have details of a lawyer on their panel. It can take a few weeks for HSBC to deal with your lawyer's application to be on the HSBC conveyancing panel. There's no guarantee that your solicitor will be accepted.

My sealed bid on a detached house in Piccadilly has been accepted, but there is a chain. The owners have put an offer on somewhere, however it’s not been accepted yet, and are looking at other properties in the pipeline. I have selected a bricks and mortar conveyancing solicitor in Piccadilly. What should be my next step? When do I get the mortgage application with Bank of Ireland started?

It is understandable to have anxieties where there is a chain as you are unlikely to want to incur costs too early (mortgage application is in the region of one thousand pounds, then valuation, Piccadilly conveyancing search fees, etc). The first course of action is to ensure that your conveyancing practitioner is on the Bank of Ireland approved list. Regarding the subsequent steps this very much dictated by the circumstances of your transaction, desire for this property and on the state of the market. In a buoyant market many buyers would apply for the mortgage with Bank of Ireland and arrange for the valuation and only if it comes back ok would they pay their conveyancer to press on with the conveyancing in Piccadilly.

I need some quick conveyancing in Piccadilly as I am under a deadline to exchange contracts within one month. Luckily I do not require a mortgage. Is it possible to decline from having conveyancing searches to save fees and time?

If.Given you are are a cash buyer you are at free not to do searches although no solicitor would recommend that you don't. Drawing on years of experience of conveyancing in Piccadilly the following are instances of what can crop up and therefore affect the marketability of the property: Enforcement Actions, Overdue Charges, Overdue Grants, Railway Schemes,...

I opted to have a survey completed on a house in Piccadilly before retaining solicitors. I have been informed that there is a flying freehold overhang to the property. The surveyor advised that some mortgage companies tend not grant a mortgage on such a house.

It varies from the lender to lender. HSBC has different instructions for example to Nationwide. Should you wish to telephone us we can look into this further with the relevant lender. If you lender is happy to lend one our lawyers can help as they are accustomed to dealing with flying freeholds in Piccadilly. Conveyancing will be smoother if you use a solicitor in Piccadilly especially if they are acquainted with such properties in Piccadilly.

I happen to be an executor of my recently deceased aunt’s Will, with a bungalow in Piccadilly which will be marketed. The bungalow is unregistered at HMLR and I'm advised that some purchasers will insist that it is done before they will proceed. What's the procedure for this?

In the situation that you have set out it seems sensible to apply to register in the names of the personal representative(s) as named in the probate and in their capacity as PRs. HMLR’s online guidance explains how to register for the first time and what is required re the deeds and forms. You would need to include and certified copy of the probate as well and complete the form FR1 to refer to the PRs as the applicant.
