I have an AIP. The lender mentioned the home loan came with free conveyancing. Does this mean I have to use their panel lawyer as I would much rather use a Rainham based conveyancing firm?
Do check but the chances are that appoint one of their panel solicitors where you accept the "fee-free" deal. Contact the bank to explore if they allow a cash alternative. In the past a few lenders offered a £250 cashback as a further option in which case you could put that amount towards the cost for your conveyancing solicitor in Rainham.
I am helping my niece sell her house in Rainham. Will the solicitor order the energy assessment or it is for the owner to coordinate?
After the demise of HIPs, energy performance certificates was kept a mandatory element of moving property. An EPC needs to be to hand prior to the property being marketed. This is not as aspect of the sale process that conveyancers normally arrange. If you are instructing a Rainham conveyancing solicitor they may help arrange energy performance certificates given their relationships with long established local providers
I have paid off my mortgage with Yorkshire BS. I assume I don't need a Rainham conveyancing practitioner on the Yorkshire BS panel to discharge the mortgage at the Land Registry. Please confirm.
If you have finished paying off your Yorkshire BS 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 Yorkshire BS mortgage from the register. Yorkshire BS, 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 Yorkshire BS has sent the Land Registry the discharge electronically, and
- Yorkshire BS has instructed the Land Registry to do so
The mortgage over my property is with Aldermore for my property in Rainham. Conveyancing was finalised some time ago. In the event that I decide 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 Aldermore?
Aldermore must be informed of your intention before letting out your property as this is likely to be a breach of Aldermore’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 Aldermore directly. You need not do this via a Aldermore conveyancing panel solicitor.
The deeds to my house are lost. The lawyers who conducted the conveyancing in Rainham 4 years ago no longer exist. What are my next steps?
These day there are copies made of almost everything, and your conveyancer should know exactly where to look for all the relevant paperwork so you can buy or sell your property without any difficulty. If copies can’t be found, your conveyancer may be able to put in place insurance or indemnities against possible claims on your property.

I am on look out for some leasehold conveyancing in Rainham. Before I set the wheels in motion I want to be sure as to the number of years remaining on the lease.
If the lease is registered - and 99.9% are in Rainham - then the leasehold title will always include the basic details of the lease, namely the date; the term; and the original parties. From a conveyancing perspective such details then enable any prospective buyer and lender to confirm that any lease they are looking at is the one relevant to that title. For any other purpose, such as confirming how long the term was granted for and calculating what is left, then the register should be sufficient on it's own.
