In cases where no conveyancer is acting for you and you have paid off your mortgage:

  1. but are not moving to another property

I can not fathom if my bank requires a lease extension. I have telephoned my Wotton under Edge bank branch on a couple of occasions and was told it does not affect the mortgage offer and they will lend. My Wotton under Edge conveyancing solicitor - who is on the mortgage company conveyancing panel- called and was told they would not lend based on their published requirements. I simply don't know who is right.

Provided that the conveyancer is on the bank panel, she or he must adhere to the Council of Mortgage Lenders’ Handbook specifications for the bank. Unless your lawyer obtains specific confirmation in writing that the lender will go ahead, your lawyer has no choice but to refrain from exchanging contract and committing you to the purchase. We would suggest that you ask the bank to contact your lawyer in writing confirming that they will accept the number of years left on the lease.

How does conveyancing in Wotton under Edge differ for new build properties?

Most buyers of new build premises in Wotton under Edge come to us having been asked by the seller to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the premises is built. This is because new home sellers in Wotton under Edge usually purchase the site, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct conveyancers as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are used to new build conveyancing in Wotton under Edge or who has acted in the same development.

My wife and I have recently had an offer agreed on a house and had an appointment on Wednesday with HSBC for the mortgage. They warned me that when it comes to choosing a conveyancing practitioner that unless they are on their approved list of conveyancers then we will have to pay out a further fee of £250+. This is is due to the fact that they would then have to appoint a solicitor to act on their behalf as well as the one we select for ourselves and we will be on the hook for their fees. I have requested HSBC to send me with a list so I can seek estimates only from their approved lawyers but was told that I need to check with each individual solicitor to see if they are on the panel. Is their an easier way of going about this?

You can enquire of HSBC what their criteria for joining their panel is for a solicitor.Thereafter ask the property lawyer of your choice whether they meet the criteria and have they acted on loans for HSBC historically. Where the answer to those is yes, then just clarify this with HSBC. Alternatively please utilise our search facility and we may be able to identify a property lawyer in Wotton under Edge on the panel for HSBC.
