It has come to my attention via my estate agent that my Highworth property lawyer is not on the lender Conveyancing panel. How can I be sure if this is correct?
Your first step should be to contact your Highworth conveyancer. It is reasonable to expect your lawyer to inform you what has happened. If they are not on the panel they could put your in touch with solicitors on the approved list of lawyers for your mortgage company.

We are aiming to move house in April. Should my conveyancing solicitor communicate with the removal company on the completion day. On a separate note, can you put forward a removal company in Highworth. Conveyancing firm was chosen prior to coming across this site.
On the day of completion you will need to collect the house keys from your property agent but this should only be done when the sellers lawyers advise the agent that the monies to complete are in and the keys can be released. Subsequently you should advise the removal men that they can start moving you in. As a matter of policy we do not recommend a particular removal organisation but can help you locate a residential property solicitor in Highworth or a legal practice that specialises in conveyancing in Highworth.
I had a mortgage agreed in principle with HSBC. Highworth conveyancing solicitors were appointed. What is the average time that one could expect to receive a mortgage offer from HSBC?
Some lenders take longer than others. Have HSBC completed the valuation? Have you informed HSBC as to your lawyers' details and checked that your lawyers are on the HSBC conveyancing panel? Sometimes it can take as long as six weeks for a mortgage offer to be issued.
I have today made my last payment due on my mortgage with Yorkshire BS. I assume I don't need a Highworth lawyer on the Yorkshire BS panel to discharge the mortgage at the Land Registry. Am I right?
If you have finished paying off your Yorkshire BS 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 Yorkshire BS mortgage from the register. Yorkshire BS, 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 Yorkshire BS has sent the Land Registry the discharge electronically, and
- Yorkshire BS has instructed the Land Registry to do so
