The Gilberdyke conveyancing firm that I appointed last week on my house acquisition in Gilberdyke have suddenly closed. I only went with them because I needed a solicitor on the Nottingham conveyancing panel and my previous Gilberdyke lawyer was not. I paid them funds in advance. What should be my next steps?

Assuming that you have an Estate Agent in the equation then inform them straight away so that they can let the sellers know that there may be a slight delay due to reasons beyond your control. Most sellers would be sympathetic and urge their lawyer to send a new set of papers to your new solicitors. You will need to appoint new lawyers that are on the Nottingham conveyancing panel and notify the lender. If you have paid over any money, it will hopefully be held by the SRA as money in an intervened firm's bank accounts is transferred to the SRA. Then, the SRA or the intervention agent looks at the intervened firm's accounts to work out who the money belongs to. To claim your money you will need to contact the SRA. If the SRA cannot return money you are owed from the firm's bank accounts, or if they can only return part of the money, you can apply to the Compensation Fund for a grant. Your new lawyers should be in a position to help.

We previously appointed conveyancing lawyers located in Gilberdyke on the Santander solicitor approved list. They have just billed me a further charge for the legal aspects of the Santander mortgage. Is this a supplemental conveyancing fee set by Santander?

Unfortunately, so long as it is in their Terms and Conditions or estimate then yes your conveyancing practitioner is entitled to charge a fee for this. This fee is not set by Santander but by your Gilberdyke conveyancer. Some firms on the Santander panel will levy an ‘acting for lender’ fee but many firms incorporate it on their overall fee.

I have paid off my mortgage with Nottingham. I assume I don't need a Gilberdyke solicitor on the Nottingham panel to discharge the mortgage at the Land Registry. Am I right?

If you have finished paying off your Nottingham 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 Nottingham mortgage from the register. Nottingham, 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 Nottingham has sent the Land Registry the discharge electronically, and
  3. Nottingham has instructed the Land Registry to do so
The Land Registry will send you a letter confirming that your Nottingham mortgage has been paid off.
