At what point does exchange of contracts occur in sale conveyancing in Parkstone and do I need to be at the lawyers branch?
Where you are local to our conveyancing solicitors in Parkstone you are welcome to attend to sign documents. That being said, the law practices we recommend provide a countrywide conveyancing service and give just as comprehensive and professional a job for you when communicating with you digitally. The executing of the contract is not the important part. Signing on the dotted line is necessary for the firm to officially exchange when the time is right, which is ordinarily shortly after signing. The procedure is nowadays normally dealt with by telephone and can be very rapid, although where a long "chain" is in play, since the process requires the relevant party's solicitor (not necessarily a conveyancing solicitor in Parkstone)to be in the office available at the end of the phone to exchange contracts.
I am the sole beneficiary of my late mum's will and I have everything in my name alone, including the house in Parkstone. The Parkstone property was put into my name in May. I now wish to sell up. I do know about the CML 6 month 'rule', meaning my property ownership may be considered the same way as if I'd bought the property in May. Do I have to wait half a year to sell?
The CML handbook requires solicitors to: "report to us immediately if the owner or registered proprietor has been registered for less than six months." By the strict wording you may be affected by that. Some mortgage companies would take a pragmatic view as this obligation chiefly exists to identify the purchase and immediately sell or the flipping of property.
I have paid off my mortgage with Nationwide. I assume I don't need a Parkstone lawyer on the Nationwide panel to remove the mortgage at the Land Registry. Am I right?
If you have finished paying off your Nationwide 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 Nationwide mortgage from the register. Nationwide, 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 Nationwide has sent the Land Registry the discharge electronically, and
- Nationwide has instructed the Land Registry to do so
Intending to buy a flat in Parkstone. I have received an online quote from a licenced conveyancer, which states: "There will be no charge for dealing with the Lender if you are obtaining a mortgage". I take this to mean that there will be no additional fee if the solicitor is on the Clydesdale conveyancing panel.

They are simply saying that the cost for acting for the lender is included in the fee being quoted. It is worth you checking that the Parkstone lawyer is on the Clydesdale conveyancing panel.
I acquired my home on 14 October and my personal details is yet to be registered. Any reason for this? My conveyancing solicitor in Parkstone advises it should be registered in less than a month. Are transfers in Parkstone uniquely lengthy to register?
There is nothing unique about conveyancing in Parkstone registration formalities. Rather than based on location, timescales can differ according to who lodges the application, whether it is in order and if the Land registry must send notices to any interested persons or bodies. Currently approximately 80% of such applications are fully addressed in less than three weeks but occasionally there can be protracted delays. Registration is effected after the new owner is living at the property thus an expedited registration is not always top priority yet if there is a degree of urgency associated with the registration then you or your lawyers must communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for the application to be prioritised.
