I do hope you can help me. My St Pancras solicitor is assuring me that he is legally obliged toorder St Pancras conveyancing searches asthe firm are on the Nat Westsolicitor panel. Is my conveyancer right?

You have limited options available to you. As you are taking a home loan with a mortgage company your solicitor has to comply with their conditions as set out in their version of the CML Conveyancing Handbook. Your solicitor would have previously signed the Terms and Conditions of your lender’s conveyancing panel appointment which obliges them to comply with the CML Handbook provisions . Even if you were a cash buyer you would be ill advised not to carry out St Pancras conveyancing searches.

When it comes to conveyancing in St Pancras seeking recommendations is a good starting point. Before you go ahead, check if they offer a no sale no fee offer. Also, you often get what you pay for - a firm which quotes more, will often provide a better service than one advertising the lowest fees.

I have a mortgage with TSB for my property in St Pancras. Conveyancing has been completed some time ago. Should I wish to rent out my property and do not currently have a buy-to-let mortgage do I need to remortgage to a BTL mortgage or inform TSB?

You must advise TSB prior to renting your property as this is likely to be a breach of TSB’s mortgage conditions. It may be that TSB will permit you to let out your former home without needing to switch to a buy-to-let mortgage but some lenders will add a surcharge to your mortgage rate to reflect the higher risk. You should contact TSB directly. You need not do this via a TSB conveyancing panel lawyer.

It is not clear whether my mortgage offer requires a lease extension. I have called into my local St Pancras building society branch on numerous occasions and was told it does not impact the mortgage offer and they would lend. My St Pancras conveyancing solicitor - who is on the bank conveyancing panel- called and was told they will not lend in accordance with their UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook minimum lease term requirements. I have no idea who is right.

As long as the lawyer is on the bank panel, they must comply with the Council of Mortgage Lenders’ Handbook requirements for the bank. Unless your lawyer obtains specific confirmation in writing that the bank will go ahead, your lawyer has no choice but to refrain from exchanging contract and committing you to the purchase. We would suggest that you ask the bank to contact your lawyer in writing confirming that they will accept the number of years left on the lease.

My relative recommended that where I am purchasing in St Pancras I should ask my conveyancer to perform a Neighbourhood, Planning and Local Amenity Search. Can you explain what the purpose of this search is?

This is a search is usually included in the estimate for your St Pancras conveyancing searches. It is not a small document of about 40 pages, listing and setting out significant information about St Pancras around the property and the people living there. It incorporates an Aerial Photograph, Planning Applications, Land Use, Mobile Phone Masts, Rights of Way, the local Housing Market, Council Tax Banding, the demographics of People living in the area, the dominant type of Housing, the Average Property Price, Crime statistics, St Pancras Education with maps and statistics, Local Amenities and other useful information concerning St Pancras.

I'm buying my first flat in St Pancras benefiting from help to buy. The sellers would not budge the amount so I negotiated five thousand pounds worth of fixtures and fittings instead. The property agent advised me not disclose to my solicitor about the deal as it could affect my mortgage with the lender. Do I keep my lawyer in the dark?.

All lenders require a Disclosure of Incentives Form from the developer of any new build, converted or renovated property, It is available online from the Lenders’ Handbook page on the CML website. CML form is completed and handed to the lender's surveyor when the inspection is done.

Lenders have different policies on incentives. Some accept none at all, cash or physical, while others will accept cash incentives up to 5%.

Hard to understand why the representative of a builder would be suggesting you withold information from a solicitor when all this will be clearly visible on forms the builder has to supply to its solicitor, the buyer's solicitor and the surveyor.

As co-executor for the will of my aunt I am selling a residence in Cardiff but live in St Pancras. My solicitor (approximately 250 kilometers awayrequires that I execute a stat dec ahead of the transaction finalising. Can you recommend a conveyancing lawyer in St Pancras who can witness this legal document for me?

Technically speaking you are not likely to need to have the documents witnessed by a conveyancing solicitor. Ordinarily or notary public or qualified solicitor will be fine regardless of whether they are based in St Pancras
