It is 10 years ago since I acquired my home in Anlaby. Conveyancing solicitors have just been appointed on the sale but I am unable to locate my title documents. Is this a major issue?
Don’t worry too much. Firstly there is a chance that the deeds will be with your mortgage company or they could be archived with the solicitor who acted in the purchase. Secondly in most cases the title will be recorded at the land registry and you will be able to establish that you are the registered owner by your conveyancing solicitors obtaining up to date copy of the land registers. Nearly all conveyancing in Anlaby involves registered property but in the rare situation where your property is not registered it is more problematic but is not insurmountable.
We are planning to move home in November. Does my conveyancing solicitor communicate with the removal company on the completion day. As an aside, can you recommend a removal company in Anlaby. Conveyancing solicitor was found prior to coming across this website.
On the afternoon of completion you will need to pick up the house keys from the property agent however this can only take place once the vendors lawyers confirm to the agent that the monies to complete are in and the keys can be collected. Subsequently you should tell the removal company that you are ready to move in. As a matter of policy we do not recommend a particular removal company but can help you find a conveyancing in Anlaby or a firm with expertise in conveyancing in Anlaby.
It is not clear whether my mortgage offer obliges me to make sure the lease term for the flat is extended prior to the completion date. I have telephoned my Anlaby building society branch on numerous occasions and was told they are content with the situation and they will lend. My Anlaby conveyancing solicitor - who is on the mortgage company conveyancing panel- called and was told they would not lend in accordance with their published requirements. I have no idea who is right.
Provided that the lawyer is on the lender approved list, they must follow the CML Handbook requirements for the lender. Unless your lawyer obtains specific confirmation in writing that the mortgage company will go ahead, your lawyer has no choice but to refrain from exchanging contract and committing you to the purchase. We would suggest that you ask the mortgage company to contact your lawyer in writing confirming that they will accept the number of years left on the lease.
I recently had an offer accepted on an apartment in Anlaby. My mortgage broker pressured me to appoint their solicitor. I paid an on account payment of £175. A couple of days later, the lawyer called me to say that they were not on the Leeds Building Society conveyancing panel. Am I right in thinking that I should be due a refund?
You should be able to recover this from the law firm if they were not on the Leeds Building Society panel. They should have asked at the outset which lender you were obtaining a mortgage with. An important lesson to readers of this site is to check that the lawyers are on the appropriate lender panel.
Despite weeks of looking the Title Certificate and documents to our house can not be found. The conveyancers who handled the conveyancing in Anlaby 10 years ago have long since closed. What are my next steps?
These day there are copies made of almost everything, and your lawyer will be aware exactly where to look for all the appropriate paperwork so you may buy or sell your property without any difficulty. If copies can’t be located, your solicitor can put in place insurance or indemnities protecting you against possible claims on your premises.
Back In 2004, I bought a leasehold house in Anlaby. Conveyancing and The Royal Bank of Scotland mortgage are in place. A letter has just been received from someone saying they have taken over the reversionary interest in the property. It included a demand for arrears of ground rent dating back to 1992. The conveyancing solicitor in Anlaby who acted for me is not around. Any advice?
The first thing you should do is contact the Land Registry to make sure that the individual purporting to own the freehold is in fact the new freeholder. You do not need to incur the fees of a Anlaby conveyancing lawyer to do this as you can do this on the Land Registry website for a few pound. Rest assured that regardless, even if this is the legitimate freeholder, under the Limitation Act 1980 no more than 6 years of rent can be collected.
