My flat in Selston is up for sale and I have a buyer. Will the lawyer need to be on the Nationwide conveyancing panel in order to deal with paying off my mortgage?
Ordinarily, even if your lawyer is not on the Nationwide conveyancing panel they can still act for you on your sale. It might be that the lender will not release the original deeds (if applicable and increasingly irrelevant) until after the mortgage is paid off. You should speak to your lawyer directly before you start the process though to ensure that there is no problem as lenders are changing their conditions fairly frequently at the moment.
I just bought a property at auction in Selston. Conveyancing is required. What are my next steps?

Every auction property will have a bespoke legal set of papers. This will include the copy title deeds, local authority and drainage searches. In the case of leasehold premises the legal papers should contain a copy of the lease, management information and a sellers leasehold information form and other conveyancing paperwork relating to a leasehold property. You must hand this to your appointed conveyancing solicitor as soon as possible. Do make sure that your finances are in order to complete on the on the contractual date .
I'm the single recipient of my late mum's will with all property in now in my sole name, including the my former home in Selston. Conveyancing formalities meant that the Land Registry date was in December. I now wish to sell up. I do know about the Mortgage Lenders six month 'rule', which means that my proprietorship will be regarded the same way as though I had purchased the house in December. Is the property unsalable for six months?
The Council of Mortgage Lenders’ handbook mandates conveyancers to: "report to us immediately if the owner or registered proprietor has been registered for less than six months." By the strict wording you could be affected by that. Most mortgage companies would take a pragmatic view as this requirement is chiefly there to pick up on subsales or the wholesaling and assigning of property.
I am expecting a OIP from Leeds Building Society this week so we know how much we could potentially offer as otherwise we only have online calculators to go by (which aren't taking into account credit checks etc). Do Leeds Building Society recommend any Selston solicitors on the Leeds Building Society conveyancing panel, or is it better to go independently?
You will need to appoint Selston solicitors independently although you'll need to choose one on the Leeds Building Society conveyancing panel. The solicitor represents both you and Leeds Building Society through the process.
