We are nearing an exchange on a flat in Henllys and my mum and dad have transferred the exchange deposit to my property lawyer. I am now told that as the deposit has been received from someone other than me my solicitor needs to make a notification to my mortgage company. Apparently, in also acting for the mortgage company he must inform them that the balance of the purchase price is coming from anyone other than me. I advised the lender regarding my parents' contribution when I applied for the mortgage, so is it really necessary for this now to delay the deal?
The lawyer is legally required to clarify with lender to make sure that they understand that the balance of the purchase price is not from your own funds. The solicitor can only disclose this to your bank if you permit them to, failing which, your lawyer must cease to continue acting.
I have 70 years left on my lease and require a lease extension for my flat in Henllys. Conveyancing solicitors on the Tesco Bank panel can deal with such extensions right?
Most leasehold conveyancing experts should be able to deal with a lease extension. if you are obtaining a mortgage then your lender may insist that the lease be extended before competition. Tesco Bank have specific requirements as set out in the UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook in relation to minimum unexpired lease terms. As of 5/3/2026 the requirements read as follows :
I have today made my last payment due on my mortgage with RBS. I assume I don't need a Henllys solicitor on the RBS panel to discharge the mortgage at the Land Registry. Please confirm.
If you have finished paying off your RBS 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 RBS mortgage from the register. RBS, 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 RBS has sent the Land Registry the discharge electronically, and
- RBS has instructed the Land Registry to do so
I am due to exchange contracts on my house. I had a double glazing fitted in February 2006, but did not receive a FENSA certificate or Building Regulation Certificate. My purchaser’s lender, Leeds Building Society are being difficult. The Henllys solicitor who is on the Leeds Building Society conveyancing panel is recommending indemnity insurance as a solution but Leeds Building Society are insisting on a building regulation certificate. Why do Leeds Building Society have a conveyancing panel if they don't accept advice from them?
It is probably the case that Leeds Building Society have referred the matter to their valuer. The reason why Leeds Building Society may not want to accept indemnity insurance is because it does not give them any reassurance that the double glazing was correctly and safely installed. The indemnity insurance merely protects against enforcement action which is very unlikely anyway.
I have finally had an offer on an apartment in Henllys agreed to, the sellers do however have an associated purchase. The sellers have offered on somewhere, however it’s not yet tied up, and are looking at other apartments booked. I have instructed a nearby conveyancing solicitor in Henllys. What do I do now? When do I get the mortgage application with Co-operative started?
It is understandable to have concerns where there is a chain as you are unlikely to want to be too out of pocket prematurely (home loan application is in the region of one thousand pounds, then valuation, Henllys conveyancing search costs, etc). First, you should check that your conveyancer is on the Co-operative conveyancing panel. As to the subsequent phase this very much dictated by the specifics of your transaction, attraction to the property and on the state of the market. In a buoyant market some buyers would apply for a home loan with Co-operative and arrange for the valuation and only if it comes back ok would they ask their solicitor to move forward with the conveyancing in Henllys.
