In what way does my ID and proof of funds have anything to do with my conveyancing in Woodhall Spa? What am I being asked for?
It is indeed that case that the requirement set out by your lawyer has nothing to do with conveyancing in Woodhall Spa. However these days you will not be able to proceed with any conveyancing transaction without first supplying proof of your identity. Ordinarily this takes the form of a either your passport or driving licence plus a council tax bill. Remember if you are supplying your driving licence as proof of identification it must be both the paper section and photo card part, one is not satisfactory in the absence of the other.
Proof of the origin of money is necessary under Money Laundering Regulations. Don’t be offended when when this is requested of you as your conveyancer will need to retain this information on file. Your Woodhall Spa conveyancing solicitor will need to see evidence of proof of funds prior to accepting any monies from you into their client account and they will also ask additional queries concerning the origin of funds.
I happen to be the single beneficiary of my late grandmother’s will with all property in now in my sole name, including the house in Woodhall Spa. Conveyancing formalities meant that the Land Registry date was in January. I want to move. I understand that there is a CML 6 month 'rule', meaning my proprietorship will be regarded the same way as if I'd bought the property in January. Do I have to wait 6 months to sell?
The Council of Mortgage Lenders’ handbook mandates conveyancers to: "report to us immediately if the owner or registered proprietor has been registered for less than six months." Technically you may be caught by that. Some lenders would take a pragmatic view as this provision is chiefly there to pick up on the purchase and immediately sell or the wholesaling and assigning of property.
Can you point me to a directory of Virgin Money panel solicitors in Woodhall Spa on the UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook Website?
Unfortunately not yet. There is no such facility on the Council of Mortgage Lenders or Building Society Association sites. A small selection of lending institutions make their panel listings viewable over the internet. If you are in need of a Woodhall Spa conveyancer on the Virgin Money please make the most of our tool.
I have today made my last payment due on my mortgage with HSBC. I assume I don't need a Woodhall Spa solicitor on the HSBC panel to discharge the mortgage at the Land Registry. Please confirm.
If you have finished paying off your HSBC 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 HSBC mortgage from the register. HSBC, 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 HSBC has sent the Land Registry the discharge electronically, and
- HSBC has instructed the Land Registry to do so

Please supply a car parking plan. Where there is an Undertaking being granted there is the risk of forfeiture of the Headlease subject to relief if one or more of the Underlessees are willing to accept the original Head Lessee’s obligations as otherwise relief will be denied to the Underlessees. The only alternatives are the Head Lessor agreeing not to forfeit the Headlease or the Head Lessee guaranteeing to the Underlessees that it will not be in breach of the Headlease. Please provide evidence that the form of Lease proposed has been approved by the Land Registry. The Lease must contain a provision on behalf of the Vendor to pay the service charges in respect of unoccupied units in order to ensure that all services can be provided. There must be mutual enforceability of lessee’s covenants.
