Recently asked questions about conveyancing in West Moors

The West Moors conveyancing firm handling our West Moors conveyancing has spotted a discrepancy when comparing the surveyor’s assumptions in the valuation survey and what is revealed within the title deeds. My lawyer says that he needs to ensure that the lender is OK with this discrepancy and is still content to lend. Is my conveyancer’s stance correct?

Your property lawyer must comply with the UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook specifications which do require that your lawyer disclose any incorrect assumptions in the lender’s valuation report and the legal papers. Should you refuse to allow your lawyer to make the appropriate notification then your lawyer will have no choice but to discontinue acting for both parties.

My grandmother passed away 10 months ago and as sole heir and executor I was left the property in West Moors. The house had a relatively small loan remaining of approximately £5k. I want to transfer the title deeds into my name whilst I re-mortgage to Aldermore, pay off the mortgage. Is this possible?

If you intend to refinance then Aldermore will require that you use a conveyancer on the Aldermore conveyancing panel. Here is link to the Land Registry online guidance around what to do when a property owner dies. This will help you to understand the registration process behind changing the details re the registered title. in your case it would appear that you are effectively purchasing the property from the estate. Your Aldermore conveyancing panel solicitor pays the new mortgage money into the estate, the estate pays off the old mortgage, the charge is released and you become the owner and the Aldermore mortgage is registered as a charge at the Land Registry.

When it comes to mortgage companies such as RBS, do West Moors conveyancers have to pay an annual charge to be on the list of approved solicitors?

After months of negotiation I have agreed a price on a house in West Moors. My mortgage broker pressured me to appoint their lawyer. I paid an on account payment of £175. Soon after, the conveyancer called me embarrassingly acknowledging that they were not on the Bank of Ireland conveyancing panel. Am I right in thinking that I should be due a refund?

You should be able to recover this from the law firm if they were not on the Bank of Ireland panel. They should have asked at the outset which lender you were obtaining a mortgage with. An important lesson to readers of this site is to check that the lawyers are on the appropriate lender panel.

Having made daily calls to Nottingham and chasing them on my offer, I have now been told that my offer will not be issued unless the lawyer is on the Nottingham conveyancing panel. Are Nottingham entitled to hold back the Mortgage pending the lawyer being on the approved list?

A lender would not issue a mortgage until they have details of a lawyer on their panel. It can take a few weeks for Nottingham to deal with your lawyer's application to be on the Nottingham conveyancing panel. There's no guarantee that your solicitor will be accepted.
