My grandmother passed away last year and as sole heir and executor I was left the house in Rugby. The house had a small mortgage left on it of around £8000. I want to have the title changed into my name whilst I re-mortgage to UBS, pay off the mortgage. Is this possible?
If you intend to re-mortgage then UBS will insist on your using a conveyancer on the UBS 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 UBS 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 UBS mortgage is registered as a charge at the Land Registry.
I purchased a renovated Victorian house in Rugby. Conveyancing lawyer acted for me and Lloyds TSB Bank. I happened to do a free search for it on the Land Registry database and I saw two entries: the first freehold, another for leasehold under the exact same property. Is it worth asking Lloyds TSB Bank to clarify?
You need to assess the Freehold register you have again and check the Charges Register as there may be mention of a lease. The best way to be sure that you are also the registered proprietor of the leasehold and freehold title as well is to check (£3). It is not completely unheard of in Rugby and other areas of the country and poses no real issues for owners other than when they remortgage they have to account for both freehold and leasehold interests when dealing with purchasers. You can also question the position with the conveyancing practitioner who completed the work.
Should I appoint a Rugby conveyancing practitioner who is local to the property I am hoping to buy? An old friend can deal with the conveyancing however they are based 400kilometers away.
The primary upside of using a local Rugby conveyancing practice is that you can attend the office to execute documents, deliver your ID and apply pressure on them if necessary. They will also have local knowledge which is a bonus. However nothing is more important than finding someone that will pull out all the stops for you. If you know people who instructed your friend and the majority were happy that should outweigh using an unknown Rugby conveyancing lawyer solely due to them being based in the area.
