My partner and I are intent on buying property in Snaresbrook. My Conveyancer is not listed on the lender solicitor panel. Is it possible for me to continue with my Snaresbrook conveyancing solicitor notwithstanding that they are not on the bank panel of approved conveyancing solicitors?
You will need to appoint a solicitor to complete the formalities when you need a loan to buy your home. The solicitor will conduct all the essential due diligence on the property, ensuring that you’re registered as proprietor and ensure that all the required mortgage paperwork is dealt with. One can select a Snaresbrook solicitor of your choice. Nevertheless, where the lawyer appointed is not a member of the lender solicitor panel further fees will be levied as separate legal representation will be need by the bank. Bank panel applications may be submitted, so where your solicitor has not previously sought membership they should do so.
We are selling our flat in Snaresbrook. Will the conveyancing practitioner have to be on the RBS conveyancing panel in order to deal with paying off my mortgage?
Ordinarily, even if your lawyer is not on the RBS 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 requirements fairly frequently currently.
2 months have gone by since my purchase conveyancing in Snaresbrook took place. I have checked the Land Registry website which shows that I paid £175,000 when infact I paid £160,000. Why the discrepancy?
The price paid figure is taken from the application to register the purchase. It is the figure included in the Transfer (the legal deed which transfers the residence from one person to the other) and referred to as the 'consideration' or purchase price. You can report an error in the price paid figure using the LR online form. In most cases errors result from typos so at first glance the figure. Do report it so they can double check and advise.
