Two weeks ago we had a mortgage agreed in principle with Aldermore. Norton Woodseats conveyancing lawyers have been chosen. How long does it take for Aldermore to forward the offer to the property lawyer?
Some lenders take longer than others. Have Aldermore completed the valuation? Have you informed Aldermore as to your lawyers' details and checked that your lawyers are on the Aldermore conveyancing panel? It is not unusual for a mortgage offer to take a month to come through.
I have today made my last payment due on my mortgage with Kent Reliance. I assume I don't need a Norton Woodseats conveyancing practitioner on the Kent Reliance panel to discharge the mortgage at the Land Registry. Am I right?
If you have finished paying off your Kent Reliance 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 Kent Reliance mortgage from the register. Kent Reliance, 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 Kent Reliance has sent the Land Registry the discharge electronically, and
- Kent Reliance has instructed the Land Registry to do so
After what seems like an age I have had an offer on a flat in Norton Woodseats agreed to, the owners do however have a dependent purchase. The vendors have put an offer on a flat, however it’s not yet agreed to, and have viewings of other flats in the pipeline. I have instructed a local conveyancing solicitor in Norton Woodseats. What do I do now? At what stage should I apply for the mortgage with Virgin Money?
It is understandable to have anxieties where there is a chain as you are unlikely to want to incur costs too early (home loan application is in the region of one thousand pounds, then valuation, Norton Woodseats conveyancing search costs, etc). The first course of action is to ensure that your property lawyer is on the Virgin Money approved list. Regarding the next stages this very much dictated by the circumstances of your transaction, motivation for the property and on the state of the market. During a rising market some buyers would apply for the mortgage with Virgin Money and arrange for the valuation and only if it was satisfactory would they request their property lawyer to press on with searches.

There is nothing unique when it comes to conveyancing in Norton Woodseats registration formalities. As opposed to being determined by geographic area, timeframes can differ subject to the party submitting the application, whether there are errors and whether the Land registry must send notices to any 3rd persons or bodies. At present roughly 80% of such applications are completed within two weeks but some can be subject to longer hold-ups. Registration occurs after the new owner is living at the premises so post completion formalities is not always primary concern yet if there is a degree of urgency associated with the registration then you or your conveyancer should communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for an expedited registration.
