Established third party connections is an important consideration when appointing conveyancing solicitors.

Are the BSA planning on creating a search tool with a view to to identify law firms on the Darlington Building Society conveyancing panel for instance in Alderley Edge?

We would not expect to be advised of any intention on the part of the BSA to promote such a tool.

is it true that all Alderley Edge solicitor firms on the Principality conveyancing panel are overseen by the Solicitors Regulatory Authority?

As solicitors, in order to be on the Principality approved list of solicitors they would need to be overseen by the SRA. The majority of mortgage companies do permit licenced conveyancers on their panel in which case such organisation would be regulated by the Council of Licensed Conveyancers.

I have today made my last payment due on my mortgage with Co-operative. I assume I don't need a Alderley Edge conveyancer on the Co-operative panel to remove the mortgage at the Land Registry. Please confirm.

If you have finished paying off your Co-operative 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 Co-operative mortgage from the register. Co-operative, 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:

1. but are not moving to another property
2. where Co-operative has sent the Land Registry the discharge electronically, and
3. Co-operative has instructed the Land Registry to do so

The estate agent will want to know who your solicitors are (be sure the lawyers are on the lender’s approved list). Contact Skipton or the financial adviser and finalise any appropriate forms.

Once carried out (assuming no problems) it takes about a fortnight for the mortgage offer to be issued. Skipton will send the offer to you and your lawyers. The legal work will then take it’s course according the nature and complexity of the conveyancing in Alderley Edge.
