I have paid off my mortgage with Clydesdale. I assume I don't need a Southam conveyancer on the Clydesdale panel to remove the mortgage at the Land Registry. Am I right?

If you have finished paying off your Clydesdale 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 Clydesdale mortgage from the register. Clydesdale, 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:

  1. but are not moving to another property
  2. where Clydesdale has sent the Land Registry the discharge electronically, and
  3. Clydesdale has instructed the Land Registry to do so
The Land Registry will send you a letter confirming that your Clydesdale mortgage has been paid off.

It is understandable to have concerns where there is a chain as you are unlikely to want to incur expenses prematurely (home loan application is in the region of £1k, then survey, Southam conveyancing search fees, etc).

Regarding the next phase this very much dictated by the uniqueness of your case, desire for the property and on the state of the market. In a rising market some purchasers would apply for a home loan with Lloyds and pay for the valuation and only if it was satisfactory would they pay their solicitor to move forward with the conveyancing in Southam.
