I am selling my flat in Warrington. Will my have to be on the conveyancing panel in order to deal with repayment of my mortgage?
Ordinarily, even if your lawyer is not on the conveyancing panel they can still act for you on your sale. It might be that the lender will not release the original deeds (if applicable and increasingly irrelevant) until after the mortgage is paid off. You should speak to your lawyer directly before you start the process though to ensure that there is no problem as lenders are changing their panel criteria fairly frequently at the moment.
Me and my brother have a renovated Georgian property in Warrington. Conveyancing solicitor acted for me and . I happened to do a free search for it on the Land Registry database and there are a couple of entries: the first freehold, another for leasehold with the exact same address. I thought I was buying a freehold how can I check?
You need to assess the Freehold register you have again and check the Charges Register for mention of a lease. The best way to be sure that you are also the registered owner of the leasehold and freehold title as well is to check (£3). It is not completely unheard of in Warrington and other locations in the country and poses no real issues for owners other than when they mortgage they have to account for both freehold and leasehold interests when dealing with lenders. You can also question the situation with your conveyancing practitioner who conducted the purchase.
I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold issue on a house I have offered on last month in what should have been a quick, chain free conveyancing. Warrington is where the house is located. Can you offer any assistance?
Flying freeholds in Warrington are unusual but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even though you don't necessarily need a conveyancing solicitor in Warrington you would need to get your solicitor to go through the deeds thoroughly. Your mortgage company may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Warrington may ascertain that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold premises.
I'm converting the mortgage on my existing property to a buy to let loan with and intend to use the remaining equity towards a second house. The neighborhood we are looking at is Warrington. Will your solicitors be able to act for both sets of mortgage companies and link together the two deals?
