I have today made my last payment due on my mortgage with Leeds Building Society. I assume I don't need a Ryde conveyancer on the Leeds Building Society panel to discharge the mortgage at the Land Registry. Please confirm.
If you have finished paying off your Leeds Building Society 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 Leeds Building Society mortgage from the register. Leeds Building Society, 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 Leeds Building Society has sent the Land Registry the discharge electronically, and
- Leeds Building Society has instructed the Land Registry to do so
I had an offer accepted on an apartment in Ryde on 27/8/2026, valuation was booked 4 days later, received a clean bill of health. Conveyancer retained, so all that was missing was my mortgage offer. Having made daily calls to Clydesdale and chasing them on my offer, I have now been told that my offer will not be issued unless the lawyer is on the Clydesdale conveyancing panel. Are Clydesdale entitled to hold back the Mortgage pending the lawyer being on the approved list?
A lender would not issue a mortgage until they have details of a lawyer on their panel. It can take a few weeks for Clydesdale to deal with your lawyer's application to be on the Clydesdale conveyancing panel. There's no guarantee that your solicitor will be accepted.
Barclays have agreed my home loan in principle, my offer on a flat in Ryde has been accepted, now what?
Your estate agent will need to be informed of your conveyancer's details (make sure the lawyers are on the bank’s approved list). Contact Barclays or your broker and finish off any relevant forms. Barclays will instruct a valuer who will get in contact with the estate agent or seller to book an appointment. Once conducted (assuming no problems) it takes on average ten days for the mortgage offer to be issued. Barclays 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 Ryde.
