I'm in the process of swapping over from my current homeowner loan to a Buy to Let Nottingham Building Society mortgage. The bank has said that I must appoint a conveyancer for this. I got in contact with my former Crawcrook and Ryton conveyancing solicitor who who completed the conveyancing when I previously purchased the property. The fee calculation provided of £575 plus disbursements has taken me by surprise as I am not require purchase conveyancing - it’s just a straightforward remortgage.

Can you help? My Crawcrook and Ryton solicitor is informing me me that she is duty bound toorder Crawcrook and Ryton conveyancing searches asthe firm are on the HSBCconveyancing panel. These Crawcrook and Ryton checks cost a lot of money can this be avoided?
You have limited options available to you. As you are taking a home loan with a lender your lawyer has to comply with their conditions as set out in their version of the CML Conveyancing Handbook. Your solicitor would have previously signed the Terms and Conditions of your lender’s conveyancing panel appointment which obliges them to follow the Council of Mortgage Lenders’ Handbook specifications . Even if you were a cash buyer you would be ill advised not to carry out Crawcrook and Ryton conveyancing searches.

I'm the single recipient of my late mum's estate and I have everything in my name alone, including the house in Crawcrook and Ryton. The Crawcrook and Ryton property was put into my name in March. I plan to dispose of the house. I understand that there is a Mortgage Lenders six month 'rule', which means that my property ownership will be treated the same way as though I had purchased the property in March. Is the property unsalable for six months?
The CML handbook instructs conveyancers to: "report to us immediately if the owner or registered proprietor has been registered for less than six months." By the strict wording you might be caught by that. Most lenders would take a practical view as this clause is primarily there to pick up on subsales or the quick reselling of property.
I can not work out if my lender requires a lease extension. I have called into my local Crawcrook and Ryton building society branch on numerous occasions and was told it does not impact the mortgage offer and they would lend. My Crawcrook and Ryton conveyancing solicitor - who is on the mortgage company conveyancing panel- telephoned and was told they will not lend based on their UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook minimum lease term requirements. I have no idea who is right.
The conveyancing practitioner has to comply with the Council of Mortgage Lenders’ Handbook Part 2 requirements for your bank. Unless your lawyer obtains specific confirmation in writing that the bank 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.
My wife and I are close to exchanging contracts on the sale of our house in Crawcrook and Ryton and according to the buyers it appears that there is a risk of it being built land that was not decontaminated. Any high street Crawcrook and Ryton lawyer would know this is not the case. For the life of me I don't know why the buyers are using a web based conveyancing outfit rather than a conveyancing solicitor in Crawcrook and Ryton. Having lived in Crawcrook and Ryton for three years we know of no issue. Is it a good idea to get in touch with our local Authority to seek confirmation need.
It sounds as though you may have a conveyancing solicitor already. Are they able to advise? You need to enquire of your lawyer before you do anything. It is very possible that once the local authority has been informed of a potential issue it cannot be insured against (a bit like being diagnosed with a serious illness and then taking out life insurance to cover that same sickness)
