I have today made my last payment due on my mortgage with Coventry BS. I assume I don't need a Stroud Green conveyancer on the Coventry BS panel to remove the mortgage at the Land Registry. Please confirm.
If you have finished paying off your Coventry BS 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 Coventry BS mortgage from the register. Coventry BS, 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 Coventry BS has sent the Land Registry the discharge electronically, and
- Coventry BS has instructed the Land Registry to do so
I understand that there are debates on Chancel Insurance on online forums. Am I compelled to take this when acquiring a house in Stroud Green? or I am told that there is a law dating back centuries that means some owners of property living in a parish church boundary will be compelled to pay for maintenance towards the chancel in proximity to the church. Is this relevant for conveyancing in Stroud Green?
Unless a previous acquisition of the premises took place post 12 October 2013 you may expect solicitors delivering conveyancing in Stroud Green to remain recommending a chancel search and or insurance against a claim.
My husband and I are first time buyers - agreed a price, but the estate agent advised that the seller will only move forward if we appoint their recommended conveyancers as they are insisting on a ‘quick sale’. We would rather use a family conveyancer used to conveyancing in Stroud Green
It is highly unlikely the vendors are behind this. If they desire ‘a quick sale', taking such a hostile approach to a motivated purchaser is going to damage their objectives. Speak to the owners direct and make sure they understand (a)you are serious buyers (b)you are ready to go, with mortgage lined up © you have nothing to sell (d) you wish to move quickly (e)but you will continue to instruct your preferred Stroud Green conveyancing solicitors - not the ones that will provide their estate agent a introducer fee or achieve conveyancing thresholds pre-set by head office.
