Having sold my house in Ulverston last October yet the purchaser is e-mailing me to moan that her lawyer needs to hear from mine. What should have happened now that I have sold?
Following your sale your lawyer is duty bound to forward the transfer deeds and all of the paperwork to the purchaser's solicitors. Where relevant, your conveyancer should also send confirmation that the legal charge in favour of the lender has been discharged to the buyers solicitors. There is unlikely to be post completion steps peculiar conveyancing in Ulverston.
When it comes to mortgage companies such as Leeds Building Society, do Ulverston conveyancing practitioners face a yearly amount to be on the list of approved solicitors?

Can you point me to a directory of Clydesdale panel conveyancers in Ulverston on the Council of Mortgage Lender’s Website?

I had a mortgage agreed in principle with Aldermore. Ulverston conveyancing solicitors were appointed. How long does it take for Aldermore to send the offer to the conveyancer?
Some lenders take longer than others. Have Aldermore conducted the survey? Have you informed Aldermore as to your lawyers' details and checked that your lawyers are on the Aldermore conveyancing panel? Sometimes it can take as long as six weeks for a mortgage offer to be issued.
Me and my brother purchased a terraced Edwardian property in Ulverston. Conveyancing practitioner acted for me and Nationwide Building Society. I happened to do a free search for it on the Land Registry database and I saw a couple of entries: one for freehold, the second leasehold under the matching address. If a house is not a freehold shouldn't I have been informed?
You should read the Freehold register you have again and check the Charges Register as there may be mention of a lease. The best way to be sure that you are also the registered proprietor of the leasehold and freehold title as well is to check (£3). It is not completely unheard of in Ulverston and other areas of the country and poses no real issues for owners other than when they remortgage they have to account for both freehold and leasehold interests when dealing with purchasers. You can also enquire as to the position with the conveyancing solicitor who completed the work.
