I am expecting a mortgage with JPMorgan. I hope to use a Licensed Conveyancer. Does the JPMorgan Conveyancing panel include conveyancers regulated by the CLC
JPMorgan’s conveyancing panel is, like many other lenders represented by the CML or Building Society Association, open to Licensed Conveyancers regulated by the CLC.
We are due to exchange on the purchase a house but as a result of damage from the recent storms I have agreed compensation from the seller of £3k approx by way of a reduction in the price. This was going to be dealt with as part of the conveyancing process but my mortgage company JPMorgan will not agree to this. Why was JPMorgan even consulted?
Your lawyer being on the JPMorgan conveyancing panel is duty bound to inform JPMorgan of any changes to the purchase price. If you were to refuse your lawyers to disclose the reduction to JPMorgan then they would have to discontinue acting for you and JPMorgan.
I see that you have a post code search directory listing solicitors on the JPMorgan conveyancing panel. Do firms pay you a commission if I instruct them for my conveyancing?
We are a listing service only for law firms wishing to communicate if they are on the JPMorgan conveyancing panel or other lender panels. We do not charge referral fees to the any conveyancer that you subsequently appoint.
The firm that just started acting on my house acquisition in Hendon has without warning shut down. I chose them because I had to have a firm on the JPMorgan conveyancing panel and my family lawyer was not. I paid them £200 on account. What are my options?
If you have an estate agent involved then let them know straight away so that they can let the sellers know that there may be a slight delay due to the problems encountered. Hopefully they will be sympathetic and urge their lawyer to send a new set of papers to your new solicitors. You should appoint new lawyers that are on the JPMorgan 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 solicitors should be in a position to help
Hi, thinking about buying a house off my mate. Assuming we can agree a figure, what’s the best way to move forward? I hope to get a mortgage with JPMorgan. Is there anyway to cut out the solicitors to save us both money? My father said that years ago it was possible to take the documents into the local Land Registry office and they did the rest
If you are getting a mortgage with JPMorgan involved you will need to appoint a solicitor on the JPMorgan conveyancing panel. We would not encourage you to both use the same solicitors' firm. There are clear conflict of interest issues and it's not going to make a huge difference to the speed of the overall process. So as not to hold things us you should pass on your solicitors details to JPMorgan. Feel free to use our search tool to look for a licensed conveyancer or solicitor on the JPMorgan conveyancing panel.
My existing mortgage is with JPMorgan. My father has just retired and wants to pay off the mortgage left on the property. After JPMorgan is paid, I want to transfer the property to my mother's name; How long will it roughly take? Do we need two separate solicitors on the JPMorgan conveyancing panel? I do not intend to live at the property once the JPMorgan mortgage is discharged.
You will need a solicitor but they need not be on the JPMorgan conveyancing panel. You will need a solicitor to draw up the transfer and to deal with the Land Registry formalities. The only thing you need to consider is that by selling at an undervalue so ask your lawyer about the implications. There could be an inheritance tax issue if you die within 7 years of this. There's no capital gains tax for you as it is your main residence.
My ex -wife’s name is on the JPMorgan mortgage of my property but not on the land registry. The apartment was transferred to me on our divorce many years ago by way of a sealed court order. Does my ex still have a say on the sale even though the land registry showing the property in my name alone? Will I be required to take her name of the JPMorgan mortgage in order to sell?
As regards the JPMorgan mortgage, it is unusual that your ex-wife’s name remains on the mortgage but not on the title. It is conceivable that this is an oversight on the part of your conveyancers to ensure that her name was removed or even an administrative error on the part of JPMorgan in failing to update their data. In any event, it should cause difficulty providing her name no longer appears on the Land Registry title and you have a court order ordering that the property is transferred to you.
