Is it the case that all Burntwood solicitors on the Barclays conveyancing panel are governed by the SRA?
As solicitors, in order to be on the Barclays conveyancing panel they would need to be regulated by the Solicitors Regulatory Authority. Many banks do allow licenced conveyancers on their panel in which case such practice would be regulated by the Council of Licensed Conveyancers.
I have today made my last payment due on my mortgage with Nottingham. I assume I don't need a Burntwood conveyancer on the Nottingham panel to remove the mortgage at the Land Registry. Please confirm.
If you have finished paying off your Nottingham 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 Nottingham mortgage from the register. Nottingham, 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 Nottingham has sent the Land Registry the discharge electronically, and
- Nottingham has instructed the Land Registry to do so
RBS have agreed my home loan in principle, my offer on a apartment in Burntwood has been accepted, what happens next?
Your property agent will need to be advised as to your property lawyer's details (make sure the property lawyers are on the bank’s approved list). Contact RBS or the financial adviser and finalise any relevant forms. RBS will instruct a valuer who will get in touch with the selling agent or vendor to arrange a time for the valuation to take place. Once carried out (assuming no problems) it takes on average ten days to get a mortgage offer. RBS will issue the offer to you and your conveyancers. The transaction will then take it’s course according the nature and complexity of the conveyancing in Burntwood.
Just acquired a semi-detached house in Burntwood , What is the estimated time for the Land Registry to register my title? My Burntwood conveyancing solicitor works at snail pace, so I want to be sure that my ownership is registered.
As far as conveyancing in Burntwood is concerned, registration is no quicker or slower than the rest of England and Wales. As opposed to being determined by geographic area, timeframes can differ subject to the party submitting the application, whether there are errors and whether the Land registry must send notices to any other parties. Currently roughly three quarters of such applications are completed in less than three weeks but occasionally there can be extensive delays. Historically registration occurs after the purchaser has moved in to the premises thus 'speed' is not usually top priority yet where it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your lawyers should communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for an expedited registration.
I am looking for a flat up to £235,500 and identified one near me in Burntwood I like with amenity areas and station in the vicinity, the downside is that it's only got 51 years on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Burntwood suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error acquiring a lease with such few years left?
Should you need a home loan that many years may be a potential deal breaker. Discount the price by the expected lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the current owner has owned the property for a minimum of 2 years you can request that they commence the lease extension formalities and pass it to you. You can add 90 years to the existing lease with a zero ground rent applied. You should speak to your conveyancing solicitor about this matter.
A licensed conveyancer dealt with my conveyancing in Burntwood 8 years past and was holding my title documents but has since been shut down – What can I do to get hold of them?
