We are planning to move property in July. Does my conveyancing solicitor liaise with the removal company on the day of completion. As an aside, can you put forward a removal company in Colne. Conveyancing solicitor was organised prior to coming across your site.
On the day of completion you will need to pick up the house keys from the property agent but this can only take place once the vendors conveyancers inform the agent that the monies to complete are in and the keys can be passed over. After that you should advise the removal company that they can start moving you in. As a matter of policy we do not recommend a particular removal organisation but can help you locate a residential property solicitor in Colne or a lawyer that specialises in conveyancing in Colne.

I have paid off my mortgage with HSBC. I assume I don't need a Colne conveyancer on the HSBC panel to remove the mortgage at the Land Registry. Please confirm.
If you have finished paying off your HSBC mortgage, they may send you evidence showing that you have paid it off. Alternatively they may notify the Land Registry directly. The Land Registry need to see this evidence before they will remove the HSBC mortgage from the register. HSBC, and any evidence they send you, will determine the action you need to take. In cases where no conveyancer is acting for you and you have paid off your mortgage:
- but are not moving to another property
- where HSBC has sent the Land Registry the discharge electronically, and
- HSBC has instructed the Land Registry to do so

Estate agents have just been given the go-ahead to market my garden flat in Colne. Conveyancing is yet to be initiated, but I have recently received a quarterly maintenance charge invoice – Do I pay up?
It best that you discharge the maintenance contribution as usual given that all rents and maintenance charges should be apportioned on completion, so you should recover the relevant percentage by the purchaser for the period running from after the completion date to the next payment date. Most managing agents will not acknowledge the buyer until the service charges have been paid and are up to date, so it is important for both buyer and seller for the seller to show that they are up to date. This will smooth the conveyancing process.
