I have today made my last payment due on my mortgage with Barclays. I assume I don't need a Nechells lawyer on the Barclays panel to remove the mortgage at the Land Registry. Am I right?

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

I moved into my home on 14 April and my personal details is yet to be on the land registry website. Any reason for this? My conveyancing solicitor in Nechells advises it should be recorded inside ten days. Are properties in Nechells particularly slow to register?

As far as conveyancing in Nechells registration is no quicker or slower than the rest of England and Wales. Rather than based on location, timeframes can differ depending on who lodges the application, whether there are errors and whether the Land registry have to notify any third persons or bodies. At present in the region of three quarters of such applications are fully dealt with in less than three weeks but occasionally there can be extensive hold-ups. Historically registration occurs once the buyer is living at the property thus registration formalities is not typically primary concern but if there is a degree of urgency associated with the registration then you or your lawyers could speak with the land registry and explain the circumstances.

I am purchasing a new build house in Nechells with a mortgage from Coventry Building Society. The builders refused to reduce the amount so I negotiated 6k of fixtures and fittings instead. The estate agent suggested that I not to tell my lawyer about the deal as it may adversely affect my mortgage with Coventry Building Society. Do I keep my lawyer in the dark?.

All lenders require a Disclosure of Incentives Form from the builder of any new build, converted or renovated property, It is available online from the Lenders’ Handbook page on the CML website. CML form is completed and handed to the lender's surveyor when the inspection is done.

Lenders have different policies on incentives. Some accept none at all, cash or physical, while others will accept cash incentives up to 5%.

Hard to understand why the representative of a builder would be suggesting you withold information from a solicitor when all this will be clearly visible on forms the builder has to supply to its solicitor, the buyer's solicitor and the surveyor.

How do I use your search facility to find a conveyancing solicitor in Nechells on the authorised to act for my mortgage?
