Intending to buy a maisonette in West Molesey. I have received an online quote from a licenced conveyancer, which states: "There will be no charge for dealing with the Building Society if you are obtaining a mortgage". I take this to mean that there will be no additional fee if the solicitor is on the Yorkshire BS conveyancing panel. I wanted to make sure it means there will be no additional fees for dealing with the mortgage.
They are simply saying that the cost for acting for the lender is included in the fee being quoted. It is worth you checking that the West Molesey conveyancing practitioner is on the Yorkshire BS conveyancing panel.
I purchased my house on 12 August and the transaction details is not yet on the land registry website. Need I be worried? My conveyancing solicitor in West Molesey advises it will be registered inside ten days. Are transfers in West Molesey particularly slow to register?
As far as conveyancing in West Molesey is concerned, registration is no faster or slower than anywhere else in the country. Rather than based on location, timescales can differ according to the party submitting the application, whether there are errors and whether the Land registry need to notify any other parties. Currently roughly three quarters of submission are fully dealt with in less than three weeks but some can be subject to protracted delays. Historically registration is effected after the buyer has moved in to the property therefore 'speed' is not always primary concern but if there is a degree of urgency associated with the registration then you or your lawyers can communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for the application to be prioritised.
I'm purchasing my first flat in West Molesey with a loan from Yorkshire Building Society. The builders refused to reduce the price so I negotiated £7000 of fixtures and fittings instead. The sale representative advised me not to tell my solicitor about this deal as it could impact my mortgage with the lender. Is this normal?.

I’m about to sell my 2 bed flat in West Molesey. Conveyancing is yet to be initiated, however I have just received a half-yearly maintenance charge demand – should I leave it to the buyer to sort out?
It best that you discharge the maintenance contribution as normal given that all rents and maintenance charges should be apportioned on completion, so you will be reimbursed by the purchaser for the period running from after the completion date to the next payment date. Most management companies will not acknowledge the buyer until the service charges have been paid and are up to date, so it is important for both buyer and seller for the seller to show that they are up to date. Having a clear account will assist your cause and will leave you no worse off financially.

My folks cant seem to find their West Molesey property on the HMLR site. They recall that back in the 60’s when they bought the bungalow there were complications concerning the post code not being recognised in some systems.
Nearly all properties in West Molesey should be revealed. Have you limited your search with simply the postcode. Usually it will disclose all the properties inside the postcode. Where registered it will show up with a title number. If they bought back in the 70’s it's conceivable it may be unrecorded. The property may still be revealed but with the title number identified as 'na'. In this scenario you will need to find the original title papers which could be with your parent’s mortgage company.
