Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Bankside

It is a dozen years since I acquired my home in Bankside. Conveyancing solicitors have recently been appointed on the sale but I can't track down my deeds. Is this a problem?

You need not be too concerned. First there is a possibility that the deeds will be with the mortgage company or they could be archived with the conveyancers who oversaw the purchase. Secondly in all probability the property will be registered at the land registry and you will be able to establish that you are the registered owner by your conveyancing solicitors procuring current official copies of the land registers. Nearly all conveyancing in Bankside involves registered property but in the rare situation where your home is not registered it adds to the complexity but is not insurmountable.

is it true that all Bankside solicitor firms on the Coventry BS conveyancing panel are regulated by the SRA?

As a firm of solicitors, in order to be on the Coventry BS approved list of solicitors they would need to be governed by the Solicitors Regulatory Authority. The majority of lenders do list licenced conveyancers on their panel and in such a situation the organisation would be regulated by the Council of Licensed Conveyancers.

My wife and I have organised the release of further monies on our mortgage from Bank of Ireland as we want to conduct renovations to our house in Bankside. Do we need to select a local Bankside solicitor on the Bank of Ireland conveyancing panel to handle the paperwork?

Bank of Ireland don't usually require a member of their conveyancing panel to handle the formalities. If they do require any legal work then you would need to ensure that such a lawyer was on the Bank of Ireland list.

We have a mortgage agreed in principle with Aldermore. Bankside conveyancing solicitors have been chosen. What is the average time that one could expect to receive a mortgage offer from Aldermore?

There is no definitive answer here. Have Aldermore conducted the valuation? Have you advised Aldermore as to your lawyers' details and checked that your lawyers are on the Aldermore conveyancing panel? It is not unusual for a mortgage offer to take a month to come through.

I have been told that property searches are the primary reason for obstruction in Bankside house deals. Is this right?

The Council of Property Search Organisations (CoPSO) published determinations of a review by MoveWithUs that conveyancing searches do not feature within the top 10 causes of hindrances in the conveyancing process. Local searches are unlikely to feature in any holding up conveyancing in Bankside.

Having had my offer accepted I require leasehold conveyancing in Bankside. Before diving in I would like to find out the number of years remaining on the lease.

If the lease is registered - and most are in Bankside - then the leasehold title will always include the basic details of the lease, namely the date; the term; and the original parties. From a conveyancing perspective such details then enable any prospective buyer and lender to confirm that any lease they are looking at is the one relevant to that title. For any other purpose, such as confirming how long the term was granted for and calculating what is left, then the register should be sufficient on it's own.

Having spent months of dialogue we are unable to agree with our landlord on how much the lease extension should cost for our flat in Bankside. Does the Leasehold Valuation Tribunal have jurisdiction to calculate the appropriate figures?

Most certainly. We are happy to put you in touch with a Bankside conveyancing firm who can help.
