We are aiming to move property in February. Does my conveyancing solicitor communicate with the removal company on the day of completion. On a separate note, can you put forward a removal company in Godalming. Conveyancing firm was organised before I stumbled across your website.

On the day of completion you can pick up the house keys from the property agent however this can only take place after the vendors solicitors confirm to the agent that they have the completion monies and the keys can be released. After that you can tell the removal men that you are ready to move in. We are not in a position to suggest a particular removal company but can help you choose a conveyancing in Godalming or a legal practice that specialises in conveyancing in Godalming.

Does a directory service exist listing Leeds Building Society panel solicitors in Godalming on the UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook Website?

No. There is no such tool on the CML or Building Society Association sites. Very few mortgage companies make their panel listings viewable over the internet. Where you are seeking to appoint a Godalming lawyer on the Leeds Building Society please make the most of our facility.

I have today made my last payment due on my mortgage with Nationwide. I assume I don't need a Godalming solicitor on the Nationwide panel to discharge the mortgage at the Land Registry. Am I right?

If you have finished paying off your Nationwide 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 Nationwide mortgage from the register. Nationwide, 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:

1. but are not moving to another property
2. where Nationwide has sent the Land Registry the discharge electronically, and
3. Nationwide has instructed the Land Registry to do so

Despite weeks of looking the Title Certificate and documents to my house can not be found. The conveyancers who did the conveyancing in Godalming 10 years ago have long since closed. What are my options?

Nowadays there are copies made of almost everything, and your solicitor will know exactly where to locate all the relevant paperwork so you may buy or dispose of your property without a hitch. Where duplicates can’t be found, your lawyer can put in place insurance or indemnities protecting you against possible claims on the premises.

Comparable properties in Godalming with over 90 years remaining are worth £180,000. The ground rent is £65 levied per year. The lease runs out on 21st October 2083

With just 58 years unexpired we estimate the premium for your lease extension to span between £22,800 and £26,400 plus plus your own and the landlord's "reasonable" professional fees.
