Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Selsey

We are purchasing a 3 bedroom flat in Selsey with a mortgage. We wish to retain our Selsey conveyancer, but the lender says she’s not on their "panel". We have to appoint one of the mortgage company panel solicitors or retain our Selsey lawyer as well as pay for one of their panel firms to represent them. This feels 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 bank’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. Another option that might be available is for your Selsey conveyancing solicitor to apply to be on the conveyancing panel.

Me and my brother own a 4 bedroom Georgian property in Selsey. Conveyancing solicitor acted for me and The Royal Bank of Scotland. I happened to do a free search for it on the Land Registry database and there are two entries: the first freehold, another for leasehold under the exact same property. Is it worth asking The Royal Bank of Scotland to clarify?

You should read the Freehold register you have again and check the Charges Register as there may be mention of a lease. The best way to be sure that you are also the registered owner of the leasehold and freehold title as well is to check (£3). It is not completely unheard of in Selsey and other areas of the country and poses no real issues for owners other than when they buy they have to account for both freehold and leasehold interests when dealing with mortgage companies. You can also enquire as to the position with your conveyancing solicitor who conducted the purchase.

We are seeking to acquire a repossessed house in Selsey and the mortgagee in possession would like to complete inside 28 days. Do lawyers complete in this timeframe? Would it be better to select a local Selsey firm or an online conveyancer that advertises to complete quickly?
