My uncle passed away last year and as sole heir and executor I was left the house in Trimdon. The house had a small mortgage remaining of approximately £8000. I want to have the title changed into my name whilst I re-mortgage to Nationwide, pay off the mortgage. Is this possible?
Where you plan to refinance then Nationwide will insist on your using a conveyancer on the Nationwide conveyancing panel. Here is link to the Land Registry online guidance around what to do when a property owner dies. This will help you to understand the registration process behind changing the details re the registered title. in your case it would appear that you are effectively purchasing the property from the estate. Your Nationwide conveyancing panel solicitor pays the new mortgage money into the estate, the estate pays off the old mortgage, the charge is released and you become the owner and the Nationwide mortgage is registered as a charge at the Land Registry.
I am due to move property in January. Does my conveyancing solicitor communicate with the removal company on the completion day. Incidentally, can you recommend a removal company in Trimdon. Conveyancing lawyer was found prior to coming across this page.
On the afternoon of completion you will need to collect the house keys from the estate agent but this can only happen once the previous owners lawyers inform the agent that they acknowledge receipt of the completion payment and the keys can be collected. You will need to inform the removal company that they can start moving you in. We are not in a position to recommend a specific removal organisation but can assist you in finding a residential property solicitor in Trimdon or a solicitor that specialises in conveyancing in Trimdon.
I happen to be the single beneficiary of my late grandmother’s will with all property in now in my sole name, including the house in Trimdon. The Trimdon property was put into my name in September. I now wish to sell up. I do know about the CML 6 month 'rule', meaning my proprietorship could be considered the same way as if I'd bought the house in September. Is the property unsalable for six months?
The Council of Mortgage Lenders’ handbook obliges solicitors to: "report to us immediately if the owner or registered proprietor has been registered for less than six months." Technically you could be caught by that. How sensible a view mortgage companies take of it, depend on the lender as this provision is primarily there to capture subsales or the wholesaling and assigning of property.
We expect to receive a AIP from Nottingham this week so we know how much we could potentially offer as otherwise we only have online calculators to go by (which aren't taking into account credit checks etc). Do Nottingham recommend any Trimdon solicitors on the Nottingham conveyancing panel, or is it better to go independently?
You will need to appoint Trimdon solicitors independently although you'll need to choose one on the Nottingham conveyancing panel. The solicitor represents both you and Nottingham through the process.

There must be mutual enforceability of lessee’s covenants. Where there is an Undertaking being granted there is the risk of forfeiture of the Headlease subject to relief if one or more of the Underlessees are willing to accept the original Head Lessee’s obligations as otherwise relief will be denied to the Underlessees. The only alternatives are the Head Lessor agreeing not to forfeit the Headlease or the Head Lessee guaranteeing to the Underlessees that it will not be in breach of the Headlease. The Lease must contain a provision on behalf of the Vendor to pay the service charges in respect of unoccupied units in order to ensure that all services can be provided. Please confirm the Lease plans are surveyor prepared. The Vendor must covenant to keep unoccupied units in good repair until long leases are granted therefore.
