Having been referred to your service we were going to use a conveyancing solicitor in Shirenewton recommended using your comparison tool but have come across alternative estimates on the internet look less expensive – why is this?
There are plenty of conveyancing organisations advertising so-called cheap conveyancing, yet more often than not additionalfees end up with the closing invoice totally different to the one you expected. Conveyancers are obliged to make sure that costs set out in terms and conditions should be transparent and reasonable raised The conveyancers that we put forward for conveyancing in Shirenewton set out all costs for the property you plan topurchase.
I have a decision in principle. The lender mentioned the loan came with free conveyancing. Does this mean I have to use their panel lawyer as I would much rather instruct a local conveyancing solicitor in Shirenewton?
Do check but the chances are that give you one of their panel lawyers if you take up the "fee-free" offer. Contact the bank and explore if they allow a cash alternative. Some lenders have previously offered a £250 cashback as a further option in which case you could put that amount towards the cost for your conveyancing solicitor near Shirenewton.
Can you point me to a directory of Yorkshire BS panel solicitors in Shirenewton on the UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook Website?
No. There is no such facility on the Council of Mortgage Lenders or Building Society Association sites. Very few banks make their panel listings viewable on the web. If you are looking for a Shirenewton solicitor on the Yorkshire BS please use our tool.
We have agreed to purchase a house in Shirenewton. A rare aspect is that the roof has a solar panel. Clydesdale have issued a mortgage offer so presumably this is not a concern to them. Why is my solicitor raising questions about the panel?
Given that your lender is Clydesdale your lawyer must comply with the conveyancing requirements set out in Part 2 of UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook for Clydesdale. The CML Handbook sets out minimum provisions for solar panel roof-space leases, and property lawyers are required to report to Clydesdale where a lease fails to comply with these conditions. The specifications relate to the installation of panels on properties nationwide and is not restricted to Shirenewton.
I have paid off my mortgage with Co-operative. I assume I don't need a Shirenewton conveyancer on the Co-operative panel to discharge the mortgage at the Land Registry. Please confirm.
If you have finished paying off your Co-operative 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 Co-operative mortgage from the register. Co-operative, 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 Co-operative has sent the Land Registry the discharge electronically, and
- Co-operative has instructed the Land Registry to do so

In what way does the Landlord & Tenant Act 1954 affect my commercial property in Shirenewton and how can you help?
The particular law that you refer to affords security of tenure to business tenants, giving them the right to make a request to court for a continuation of occupancy when the lease comes to an end. There are limited grounds that a landlord can refuse a lease renewal and the rules are involved. We are happy to direct you to commercial conveyancing firms who use the act for protection and assist with commercial conveyancing in Shirenewton
I am on look out for some leasehold conveyancing in Shirenewton. Before I set the wheels in motion I would like to find out the number of years remaining on the lease.
Assuming the lease is recorded at the land registry - and most are in Shirenewton - 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.
