I am obtaining a offer of a home loan from Santander. I would like to retain the legal services of a Licensed Conveyancer in Linslade. Does the Santander Solicitor panel include Licensed Conveyancers?
The Santander approved solicitor list is, like many other lenders, associated to the Council or Mortgage Lenders or Building Society Association, open to Licensed Conveyancers regulated by the CLC.
My partner and I are only a couple days away from an exchange on a house in Linslade and my parents have transferred the exchange deposit to my conveyancing practitioner. I am now told that as the deposit has not arrived from me my lawyer needs to disclose this to my mortgage company. Apparently, in also acting for the lender he must advise them that the balance of the purchase price is not just from me. I advised the bank regarding my parents' contribution when I applied for the mortgage, so is it really necessary for him to raise this?
The property lawyer is obliged to check with the bank to make sure that they understand that the balance of the purchase price is not from your own resources. Your solicitor can only reveal this to your mortgage company if you permit them to, failing which, your lawyer must cease to continue acting.
Are there restrictive covenants that are commonly picked up as part of conveyancing in Linslade?
Covenants that are restrictive in nature can be picked up when reviewing land registry title as part of the process of conveyancing in Linslade. An 1874 stipulation that was seen was ‘The houses to be erected on the estate are each to be of a uniform elevation in accordance with the drawings to be prepared or approved by the vendor’s surveyor…’
