Recently asked questions about conveyancing in North Acton

My mortgage broker has requested my North Acton law firm’s panel member for the Nat West conveyancing panel. What is the best way to find this out. I have e-mailed my local North Acton office but they have not responded to me.

The sensible thing to do is ask for this information from your North Acton lawyer . They retain a central record lender panel numbers.

I am selling my flat in North Acton. Will the conveyancer need to be required to be on the Virgin Money conveyancing panel in order to deal with the discharge of my mortgage?

Ordinarily, even if your lawyer is not on the Virgin Money 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 conditions fairly frequently in recent years.

Last September I purchased a leasehold flat in North Acton. Am I liable to pay service charges relating to a period prior to my ownership?

In a situation where the service charge has already been demanded from the previous lessee and they have not paid you would not usually be personally liable for the arrears. Strange as it may seem, your landlord may still be able to take action to forfeit the lease. It is an essential part of leasehold conveyancing for your conveyancer to be sure to have an up to date clear service charge receipt before completion of your purchase. If you have a mortgage this is likely to be a requirement of your lender.

If you purchase part way through an accounting year you may be liable for charges not yet demanded even if they relate to a period prior to your purchase. In such circumstances your conveyancer would normally arrange for the seller to set aside some money to cover their part of the period (usually called a service charge retention).

I have tried to negotiate informally with with my landlord to extend my lease without any joy. Can the Leasehold Valuation Tribunal decide on such issues? Can you recommend a North Acton conveyancing firm to assist?

You certainly can. We are happy to put you in touch with a North Acton conveyancing firm who can help.
