My wife and I are approaching an exchange on a house in Ringwood and my parents have transferred the exchange deposit to my lawyer. I am now told that as the deposit has been received from someone other than me my solicitor needs to make a notification to my mortgage company. Apparently, in also acting for the lender he must inform them that the balance of the purchase price is coming from anyone other than me. I disclosed to the bank about my parents' contribution when I applied for the home loan, so is it really necessary for this now to hold matters up?
Your conveyancer is legally required to clarify with lender to ensure that they understand that the balance of the purchase price is not from your own resources. The solicitor can only report this to your lender if you permit them to, failing which, your lawyer must cease to continue acting.
I have paid off my mortgage with UBS. I assume I don't need a Ringwood property lawyer on the UBS panel to remove the mortgage at the Land Registry. Please confirm.
If you have finished paying off your UBS 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 UBS mortgage from the register. UBS, 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 UBS has sent the Land Registry the discharge electronically, and
- UBS has instructed the Land Registry to do so
After weeks of negotiation I have agreed a price on a house in Ringwood. My financial adviser suggested a solicitor. I paid an advanced payment of £175. Not long after, the solicitor contacted me to say that they were not on the Leeds Building Society conveyancing panel. Am I right in thinking that I should be due a refund?
You should be able to recover this from the law firm if they were not on the Leeds Building Society panel. They should have asked at the outset which lender you were obtaining a mortgage with. An important lesson to readers of this site is to check that the lawyers are on the appropriate lender panel.
