I'm the single recipient of my late father’s estate and I have everything in my name now, including the my former home in Llanrwst. Conveyancing formalities meant that the Land Registry date was in June. I now wish to sell up. I understand that there is a CML six month 'rule', meaning my property ownership could be considered the same way as if I'd bought the property in June. Will no one buy the property for half a year?
The CML handbook obliges solicitors to: "report to us immediately if the owner or registered proprietor has been registered for less than six months." Technically you might be caught by that. How sensible a view mortgage companies take of it, depend on the mortgage company as this requirement primarily exists to pick up on the purchase and immediately sell or the flipping of property.
We are getting a further advance on our mortgage from RBS as we wish to carry out improvements to our home in Llanrwst. Do we need to select a bricks and mortar Llanrwst solicitor on the RBS conveyancing panel to handle the paperwork?
RBS would not normally appoint a member of their conveyancing panel to handle such a matter. If they do require any legal work then you would need to ensure that such a lawyer was on the RBS list.
I recently had an offer accepted on a house in Llanrwst. My mortgage broker suggested a solicitor. I paid an upfront payment of £175. A few days later, the solicitor called me sheepishly admitting that they were not on the Bank of Ireland conveyancing panel. Am I right in thinking that I should be due a refund?
You should be able to recover this from the law firm if they were not on the Bank of Ireland panel. They should have asked at the outset which lender you were obtaining a mortgage with. An important lesson to readers of this site is to check that the lawyers are on the appropriate lender panel.
