My home in Lake District is up for sale and I have a buyer. Does my conveyancer need to be required to be on the Nationwide conveyancing panel in order to deal with the discharge of my mortgage?
Ordinarily, even if your lawyer is not on the Nationwide conveyancing panel they can still act for you on your sale. It might be that the lender will not release the original deeds (if applicable and increasingly irrelevant) until after the mortgage is paid off. You should speak to your lawyer directly before you start the process though to ensure that there is no problem as lenders are changing their panel criteria fairly frequently currently.
My bid for a property was accepted at auction in Lake District. Conveyancing is required. What are my next steps?
Having to all intents and purposes signed on the dotted line you must find a conveyancing practitioner soon as you are facing a tight a fixed date to complete the deal. Every auction property should have a bespoke auction pack. This will include most,if not all of the documents that your lawyer will need. If you have purchased leasehold property the legal papers may provide a copy of the lease, management information and a sellers leasehold information form and other conveyancing paperwork relating to leasehold premises. You should give this to your appointed conveyancing solicitor as soon as possible. Do make sure that your finances are in order to complete the transaction on the set completion date.
I am due to move house in August. Does my conveyancing solicitor liaise with the removal company on the day of completion. On a separate note, can you suggest a removal company in Lake District. Conveyancing firm was organised before I stumbled across this site.
On the day of completion you will need to collect the house keys from the selling agent but this should only be done when the previous owners lawyers advise the agent that they acknowledge receipt of the completion payment and the keys can be given over. After that you should advise the removal company that you are ready to move in. As a matter of policy we do not suggest a specific removal company but can assist you in choosing a residential property solicitor in Lake District or a solicitor with expertise in conveyancing in Lake District.
We were going to get a AIP from Lloyds this week so we can work out what to offer on a property we like as otherwise we only have online calculators to go by (which aren't taking into account credit checks etc). Do Lloyds recommend any Lake District solicitors on the Lloyds conveyancing panel, or is it better to find our own lawyer?
You will need to appoint Lake District solicitors independently although you'll need to choose one on the Lloyds conveyancing panel. The solicitor represents both you and Lloyds through the process.
