Last month we had a mortgage agreed in principle with RBS. Godmanchester conveyancing practitioners were chosen. What is the average time that one could expect to receive a mortgage offer from RBS?
There is no definitive answer here. Have RBS done the survey? Have you informed RBS as to your lawyers' details and checked that your lawyers are on the RBS conveyancing panel? Sometimes it can take as long as six weeks for a mortgage offer to be issued.
Intending to buy a house in Godmanchester. I have received an online quote from a licenced conveyancer, which states: "There will be no charge for dealing with the Lender if you are obtaining a mortgage". I take this to mean that there will be no additional fee if the solicitor is on the Barclays conveyancing panel. I wanted to make sure it means there will be no additional fees for dealing with the mortgage.
They are simply saying that the cost for acting for the lender is included in the fee being quoted. It is worth you checking that the Godmanchester lawyer is on the Barclays conveyancing panel.
I bought my flat on 4 October and the transaction details are still not on the land registry website. Need I be worried? My conveyancing solicitor in Godmanchester said it would be concluded in less than a month. Are titles in Godmanchester particularly slow to register?
As far as conveyancing in Godmanchester is concerned, registration is no faster or slower than anywhere else in the country. Rather than based on location, timeframes can differ depending on who lodges the application, whether there are errors and whether the Land registry need to notify any third persons or bodies. Currently approximately three quarters of submission are completed within two weeks but occasionally there can be extensive delays. Registration takes place after the purchaser has moved in to the property so an expedited registration is not typically top priority yet where it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your lawyers should communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for the application to be prioritised.
