I am purchasing an apartment in Cubitt Town. My property lawyer has never been on on the lender solicitor panel. Is it possible for me to use my Cubitt Town conveyancing solicitor even though they are excluded from the bank list of approved lawyers?

You must instruct a solicitor to complete the formalities when you need a mortgage to purchase your property. They will conduct all the necessary due diligence on the property, make sure that you will be properly registered as the owner and ensure that all the necessary mortgage documentation is dealt with. You can select a Cubitt Town lawyer of your choice. Nevertheless, if the solicitor selected is not a member of the lender approved list further costs will be levied as separate legal representation will be required by them. Lender panel applications can be submitted, so if your lawyer has not previously applied for membership they can do so.

I have given 8 weeks notice to my existing landlord and must leave my rented flat in Cubitt Town by the end of next month. Conveyancing for my house purchase is progressing. Can I complete in a couple of weeks as don't want to have to find temporary accommodation?

I own a freehold premises in Cubitt Town yet pay rent, why is this and what is this?

It is rare for properties in Cubitt Town and has limited impact for conveyancing in Cubitt Town but some freehold properties in England (particularly common in North West England) pay an annual sum known as a Chief Rent or a Rentcharge to a third party who has no other legal interest in the land.

Rentcharge payments are usually between £2.00 and £5.00 per year. Rentcharges have existed for hundreds of years, but the Rent Charge Act 1977 barred the generation of new rentcharges from 1977 onwards.

Previous rentcharges can now be redeemed by making a lump sum payment under the Act. Any rentcharges that are still in existence post 2037 will be extinguished.

We are expecting a mortgage offer soon. The bank mentioned the mortgage came with free conveyancing. Is the implication that I have to use their panel conveyancer as I would prefer to instruct a Cubitt Town based conveyancing firm?

You should check but the chances are that appoint one of their panel lawyers if you take up the "fee-free" deal. Call the lender to determine if they allow a monetary alternative. It is not unheard for a lender to give a £250 cashback as a further option in which case you could put that amount towards your preferred conveyancing solicitor in Cubitt Town.

The deeds to my home can not be found. The conveyancers who handled the conveyancing in Cubitt Town 5 years ago have long since closed. What do I do?

These day there are copies made of almost everything, and your lawyer should know exactly where to look for all the appropriate paperwork so you may purchase or sell your house without a hitch. If duplicates are not available, your conveyancer can arrange cover in the form of insurance or indemnities against possible claims on your property.

I need to retain a conveyancing solicitor for some conveyancing in Cubitt Town. I happened to chance upon a web site which looks to be the perfect answer If there is a chance to get all the legals done via web that would be preferable. Should I be wary? What are the potential pitfalls?

As usual with these online conveyancers you need to read ALL the small print - did you notice the extra charge for dealing with the mortgage?
