Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Stanwell

Me and my partner are purchasing a 2 bedroom flat in Stanwell with a mortgage. We wish to retain our Stanwell solicitor, but the lender says she’s not on their "panel". We have to appoint one of the mortgage company panel firms or continue with our Stanwell conveyancer as well as pay for one of their panel firms to act for them. We regard this is unjust; can we not require that the lender use our Stanwell conveyancing practitioner ?

No, not really. Your mortgage offer is subject to its terms and conditions, one of which will be that lawyers will on the bank’s conveyancing panel. Until recently, most lenders had large numbers of law firms on their panels: a borrower could choose one for themselves, as long as it was on the lender's panel. The lender would then simply instruct the borrower's lawyers to act for the lender, too. You can use your lender's panel lawyers or you could borrow from another lender which does not restrict your choice. Another option that might be available is for your Stanwell conveyancing lawyer to apply to be on the conveyancing panel.

What does my ID and proof of funds have anything to do with my conveyancing in Stanwell? Why is this being asked of me?

Anti-terror and anti-money-laundering rules require solicitors and licensed conveyancers to check the ID of the potential client they are dealing with prior to agreeing to accepting their conveyancing instruction. The Terms of Engagement that you are required to sign will no doubt confirm this.

As you are obtaining a mortgage with Principality your lawyer must follow the conveyancing instructions contained in Section 2 of UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook for Principality. The CML Handbook sets out minimum specifications for solar panel roof-space leases, and property lawyers are required to report to Principality where a lease does not comply with these conditions. The provisions relate to the installation of panels on properties in England and Wales and is not limited to Stanwell.

The Land Registry need to see this evidence before they will remove the Santander mortgage from the register. Santander, 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 Santander has sent the Land Registry the discharge electronically, and
  3. Santander has instructed the Land Registry to do so
The Land Registry will send you a letter confirming that your Santander mortgage has been paid off.
