I'm the only recipient of my late father’s will and I have everything in my name alone, including the my former home in Loddon. Conveyancing formalities meant that the Land Registry date was in February. I now wish to sell up. I do know about the Mortgage Lenders six month 'rule', meaning my property ownership may be regarded the same way as though I had purchased the property in February. Do I have to wait 6 months to sell?
The Council of Mortgage Lenders’ handbook mandates conveyancers to: "report to us immediately if the owner or registered proprietor has been registered for less than six months." Technically you could be affected by that. many mortgage companies would take a practical view as this obligation primarily exists to identify the purchase and immediately sell or the wholesaling and assigning of property.
I have today made my last payment due on my mortgage with Barclays. I assume I don't need a Loddon conveyancing practitioner on the Barclays panel to discharge the mortgage at the Land Registry. Am I right?
If you have finished paying off your Barclays 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 Barclays mortgage from the register. Barclays, 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 Barclays has sent the Land Registry the discharge electronically, and
- Barclays has instructed the Land Registry to do so

Will control of the Management Company (if any) be handed over to purchasers on completion of the last sale or earlier? If there are lifts in the building, please confirm that the owners of flats on the ground and basement floors will not be required to contribute towards the cost of maintenance and renewal. Has the Lease plan been approved by the Land Registry and if not when will they be lodged for this purpose? Where service of notices and proceedings can be at the property demised please confirm that this can be amended to include simultaneous services at the Lessees’ solicitors’ offices where the Lessee from time to time is not resident in the UK - such solicitors may be varied by notice in writing to the Landlord from time to time but otherwise will be as previously specified.
We're FTB’s - agreed a price, but the property agent has warned us that the owners will only go ahead if we instruct their recommended conveyancers as they want a ‘quick sale’. My instinct tells me that we should use a family conveyancer used to conveyancing in Loddon
It is highly unlikely the sellers are behind this. If they require ‘a quick sale', alienating a serious buyer is is going to put the whole deal at risk. Speak to the vendors direct and make sure they understand (a)you are genuine buyers (b)you are excited to move forward, with mortgage lined up © you have nothing to sell (d) you wish to move quickly (e)however you will continue to use your preferred Loddon conveyancing lawyers - not the ones that will provide the estate agent a referral fee or achieve conveyancing figures set by senior management.

The answer will be important as a) areas could result in problems for the block as the common areas may start to deteriorate where maintenance are not paid for b) if the leasehold owners have an issue with the running of the building you will need to know about it Be sure to enquire if the the lease contains any adverse restrictions in the lease.

If you love the flatin Loddon however your cat is not allowed to live with you then you will be faced hard compromise. Best to be warned if window replacement or some other significant cost is coming up that will be shared amongst the leaseholders and will dramatically impact the level of the service charges or result in a specific payment.
My husband and I have AIP from Accord Mortgages Ltd who suggested we could borrow up to £218k. When do we need to instruct a lawyer for conveyancing? Loddon is where we are .
You can instruct a property lawyer now so that the conveyancing practitioner can open the file so they can commence their ID checks etc. If and when you wish them to start work they will seek a deposit normally about £175. That should generally be after you have the loan offer from the lender and survey back, but if you wish to expedite matters you can start the ball rolling quicker albeit risking some money.
