My grandmother passed away last year and as sole heir and executor I was left the house in Bethnal Green. The house had a relatively small loan left on it of around £5k. I want to have the title changed into my name whilst I re-mortgage to HSBC, pay off the mortgage. Is this possible?
Given you intend to re-mortgage then HSBC will require that you use a conveyancer on the HSBC conveyancing panel. Here is link to the Land Registry online guidance around what to do when a property owner dies. This will help you to understand the registration process behind changing the details re the registered title. in your case it would appear that you are effectively purchasing the property from the estate. Your HSBC conveyancing panel solicitor pays the new mortgage money into the estate, the estate pays off the old mortgage, the charge is released and you become the owner and the HSBC mortgage is registered as a charge at the Land Registry.
I own a renovated Victorian house in Bethnal Green. Conveyancing solicitor represented me and Barclays Direct. I did a free Land Registry search last week and there are a couple of entries: the first freehold, another for leasehold under the matching property. Is it worth asking Barclays Direct to clarify?
You should review the Freehold register you have again and check the Charges Register as there may be 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 Bethnal Green and other locations in the country and poses no real issues for owners other than when they sell they have to account for both freehold and leasehold interests when dealing with mortgage companies. You can also check the position with your conveyancing solicitor who completed the work.
How does conveyancing in Bethnal Green differ for newly converted properties?
Most buyers of new build or newly converted property in Bethnal Green come to us having been asked by the developer to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the house is constructed. This is because developers in Bethnal Green usually purchase the site, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct property lawyers as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are accustomed to new build conveyancing in Bethnal Green or who has acted in the same development.
