We were just about to sign contracts for a garden flat in Beckermet. We have hit a snag. Our loan offer with Lloyds TSB Bank runs out on 16/3/2026 but the vendors are putting forward a completion date of 18/3/2026. Can one extend the mortgage expiry date?

It is 10 years ago since I bought my house in Beckermet. Conveyancing solicitors have just been appointed on the sale but I can't track down my title deeds. Will this jeopardise the sale?
Don’t worry too much. Firstly the deeds may be retained by your lender or they could be in the possession of the lawyers who handled the purchase. Secondly the likelihood is that the land will be registered at the land registry and you will be able to prove you own the property by your conveyancing lawyers obtaining up to date copy of the land registers. Almost all conveyancing in Beckermet involves registered property but in the unlikely event that your home is unregistered it is more problematic but is resolvable.

We previously chose conveyancing lawyers locally in Beckermet on the UBS solicitor approved list. They are now charging me a separate charge for the legal aspects of the UBS mortgage. Is this a supplemental conveyancing fee set by UBS?
