We are getting a further advance on our mortgage from Virgin Money as we want to carry out a loft conversion to our property in Hazlemere. Are we obliged to appoint a nearby Hazlemere solicitor on the Virgin Money conveyancing panel to handle the paperwork?
Virgin Money don't usually instruct a member of their conveyancing panel to deal with the formalities. If they do require any legal work then you would need to ensure that such a lawyer was on the Virgin Money panel.
I have today made my last payment due on my mortgage with HSBC. I assume I don't need a Hazlemere property lawyer on the HSBC panel to discharge 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

I am in need of some leasehold conveyancing in Hazlemere. Before I set the wheels in motion I would like to find out the unexpired term of the lease.
If the lease is registered - and 99.9% are in Hazlemere - then the leasehold title will always include the basic details of the lease, namely the date; the term; and the original parties. From a conveyancing perspective such details then enable any prospective buyer and lender to confirm that any lease they are looking at is the one relevant to that title. For any other purpose, such as confirming how long the term was granted for and calculating what is left, then the register should be sufficient on it's own.

You should not use the figures in a Notice of Claim or as an informal offer. There may be other issues that need to be considered and clearly you should be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. Neither should you move forward based on this information without first getting professional advice.
