Recently asked questions about conveyancing in North London

We are buying a 1 bedroom flat in North London with a mortgage. We have a North London lawyer, but the lender advise he's not on their "panel". We have to appoint one of the mortgage company panel solicitors or continue with our North London conveyancer as well as pay for one of their panel ones to represent them. This seems very unfair; is there anything we can do?

No, not really. Your mortgage offer is subject to its terms and conditions, one of which will be that lawyers will on the lender’s conveyancing panel. Until recently, most lenders had large numbers of law firms on their panels: a borrower could choose one for themselves, as long as it was on the lender's panel. The lender would then simply instruct the borrower's lawyers to act for the lender, too. You can use your lender's panel lawyers or you could borrow from another lender which does not restrict your choice. A further alternative is for your North London conveyancing lawyer to apply to be on the conveyancing panel.

It is 10 years ago since I acquired my house in North London. Conveyancing lawyers have just been retained on the sale but I can't track down my title documents. Is this a major issue?

Don’t worry too much. Firstly there is a possibility that the deeds will be retained by the lender or they may stored with the lawyers who oversaw the purchase. Secondly in all probability the title will be registered at the land registry and you will be able to establish that you are the registered owner by your conveyancing solicitors obtaining up to date copy of the land registers. The vast majority of conveyancing in North London involves registered property but in the rare situation where your home is not registered it is more tricky but is resolvable.
