I happen to be the single beneficiary of my late grandmother’s estate and I have everything in my name now, including the house in Beddington. The Beddington property was put into my name in November. I want to move. I do know about the CML 6 month 'rule', meaning my proprietorship could be considered the same way as though I had purchased the house in November. Is the property unsalable for six months?

The Council of Mortgage Lenders’ handbook requires solicitors to: "report to us immediately if the owner or registered proprietor has been registered for less than six months." Technically you could be affected by that. many lenders would take a practical view as this provision is chiefly there to identify subsales or the quick reselling of properties.

I have paid off my mortgage with Virgin Money. I assume I don't need a Beddington conveyancing practitioner on the Virgin Money panel to remove the mortgage at the Land Registry. Please confirm.

If you have finished paying off your Virgin Money 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 Virgin Money mortgage from the register. Virgin Money, 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 Virgin Money has sent the Land Registry the discharge electronically, and
  3. Virgin Money has instructed the Land Registry to do so
The Land Registry will send you a letter confirming that your Virgin Money mortgage has been paid off.

I am selling my flat. I had a double glazing fitted in February 2008, but did not receive a FENSA certificate or Building Regulation Certificate. My purchaser’s mortgage company, Yorkshire BS are being a right pain. The Beddington solicitor who is on the Yorkshire BS conveyancing panel is saying indemnity insurance will be fine but Yorkshire BS are requiring a building regulation certificate. Why do Yorkshire BS have a conveyancing panel if they don't accept advice from them?

It is probably the case that Yorkshire BS have referred the matter to their valuer. The reason why Yorkshire BS may not want to accept indemnity insurance is because it does not give them any reassurance that the double glazing was correctly and safely installed. The indemnity insurance merely protects against enforcement action which is very unlikely anyway.

We're new to the buying process - had an offer accepted, yet the estate agent informed us that the seller will only move forward if we use their chosen solicitors as they are insisting on an ‘expedited deal’. We would rather use a high street solicitor with experience of conveyancing in Beddington

It is highly unlikely the sellers are driving this. Should the owner desire ‘a quick sale', taking such a hostile approach to a motivated buyer is going to damage their objectives. Speak to the vendors direct and make the point that (a)you are serious buyers (b)you are excited to move forward, with mortgage lined up © you do not need to sell (d) you wish to move quickly (e)however you intend to appoint your preferred Beddington conveyancing lawyers - not the ones that will give their negotiator at the agency a referral fee or achieve conveyancing figures pre-set by head office.
