I am selling my flat in Skellingthorpe. Will the solicitor need to be on the Leeds Building Society conveyancing panel in order to deal with repayment of my mortgage?

Ordinarily, even if your lawyer is not on the Leeds Building Society conveyancing panel they can still act for you on your sale. It might be that the lender will not release the original deeds (if applicable and increasingly irrelevant) until after the mortgage is paid off. You should speak to your lawyer directly before you start the process though to ensure that there is no problem as lenders are changing their panel criteria fairly frequently at the moment.

I'm purchasing a new build house in Skellingthorpe with a mortgage from Skipton Building Society. The developers would not move on the amount so I negotiated 6k of extras instead. The estate agent suggested that I not to tell my solicitor about the extras as it may affect my mortgage with Skipton Building Society. Should I keep quiet?.

All lenders require a Disclosure of Incentives Form from the developer 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.

Do I need to be suspicious about estate agents that I am dealing with are recommending a factory type conveyancing firm as opposed to a High Street Skellingthorpe conveyancing practice?

As with lots of professional services, often recommendations from family and friends can be extremely useful or valuable. Yet there are lots of parties with a vested interest in a conveyancing deal; estate agents, mortgage brokers and lenders may recommend conveyancers to select. Sometimes the lawyers might be known to one of the organisations as experts in their field, but sometimes there exists a commercial relationship behind the endorsement. You are free to select your preferred conveyancer. Don't forget that most mortgage providers specify a panel list of law firms you must use for the mortgage aspect of your conveyancing.

I need to appoint a conveyancing solicitor for freehold conveyancing in Skellingthorpe. I've stumble upon a web site which looks to be the ideal offering If there is a chance to get all the legals done via email that would be preferable. Should I be concerned? What should out be looking out for?

As usual with these online conveyancers you need to read ALL the small print - did you notice the extra charge for dealing with the mortgage?
