My IFA has requested my Ripponden law firm’s panel member for the Nationwide conveyancing panel. Can you suggest how I find this out. I have e-mailed my local Ripponden branch but they cant find it on their system.
Have you tried calling your Ripponden conveyancing practitioner about this?. Most Ripponden conveyancing firms will retain a file or database of lender panel information which would include, if applicable, their conveyancing panel details for each bank.

My wife and I have recently appointed a conveyancing solicitor in Ripponden. I I am struggling to find out if they are accepted on the HSBC Bank approved list of lawyers. Can you advise?

This question may be naive but I am unseasoned as FTB of a two bedroom flat in Ripponden. Do I collect the keys to the premises on the completion date from my solicitor? If so, I will find a High Street conveyancing solicitor in Ripponden?
There is no need to visit the lawyers office on the day of completion. Conveyancing lawyers for you will transfer the purchase money to the seller's lawyers, and shortly after the monies have arrived, you should be invited to receive the keys from the selling Agents and move into your new home. This tends to happen early afternoon.
We had instructed conveyancers with offices in Ripponden on the Virgin Money solicitor panel. They are now charging me a further amount for the legal aspects of the Virgin Money mortgage. Is this a supplemental conveyancing fee set by Virgin Money?
As unfair as it may appear, as long as it’s in their Terms of Engagement or Quote then yes your solicitor can levy a fee for this. This fee is not dictated by Virgin Money but by your Ripponden conveyancer. Some firms on the Virgin Money panel will levy ’dealing with mortgage’ fee but some firms include it on their overall fee.
I have paid off my mortgage with Aldermore. I assume I don't need a Ripponden conveyancing practitioner on the Aldermore panel to remove the mortgage at the Land Registry. Am I right?
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
I completed on my house on 2 July and the transaction details is yet to be on the land registry website. Any reason for this? My conveyancing solicitor in Ripponden expressed confidence that it should be dealt with inside ten days. Are titles in Ripponden uniquely lengthy to register?
As far as conveyancing in Ripponden is concerned, registration is no quicker or slower than the rest of England and Wales. Rather than based on location, timescales can vary depending on who lodges the application, whether there are errors and if the Land registry communicate with any interested persons or bodies. Currently in the region of 80% of submission are completed within 12 days but occasionally there can be extensive delays. Historically registration takes place after the purchaser has moved in to the premises so registration formalities is not always an essential issue yet where it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your conveyancer could communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for the application to be prioritised.
