I had a mortgage agreed in principle with Virgin Money. Carnforth conveyancing solicitors are selected. What is the average time that one could expect to receive a mortgage offer from Virgin Money?
Some lenders take longer than others. Have Virgin Money completed the valuation? Have you advised Virgin Money as to your lawyers' details and checked that your lawyers are on the Virgin Money conveyancing panel? It is not unusual for a mortgage offer to take a month to come through.
I have paid off my mortgage with Clydesdale. I assume I don't need a Carnforth conveyancing practitioner on the Clydesdale panel to remove the mortgage at the Land Registry. Please confirm.
If you have finished paying off your Clydesdale 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 Clydesdale mortgage from the register. Clydesdale, 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 Clydesdale has sent the Land Registry the discharge electronically, and
- Clydesdale has instructed the Land Registry to do so
I can not fathom if my mortgage offer obliges me to make sure the lease term for the flat is extended prior to the completion date. I have telephoned my Carnforth building society branch on a couple of occasions and was told it does not impact the mortgage offer and they will lend.

As long as the solicitor is on the mortgage company panel, she or he must follow the CML Handbook provisions for the bank. Unless your lawyer obtains specific confirmation in writing that the mortgage company 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 lender to contact your lawyer in writing confirming that they will accept the number of years left on the lease.
I require quick conveyancing in Carnforth as I have an ultimatum to complete in less than one month. A mortgage is not required. Can I escape the need for conveyancing searches to save fees and time?
As you are not obtaining a home loan you have the choice not to have searches conducted although no lawyer would recommend that you don't. With plenty of history conveyancing in Carnforth the following are instances of what can appear and therefore affect market value: Enforcement Notices, Outstanding Fees, Outstanding Grants, Railway Schemes,...
