COMPLETIONmonitor is an online pre- and post-completion checklist for property lawyers. It is supported by PI insurers such as AmTrust. COMPLETIONmonitor is a unique risk mitigation tool.

This system is the only way you can prove to lender panels that you are, and can stay fully compliant with their requirements, with alerts on LendInvest’s changes. While using the tool is not a condition for acceptance on the LendInvest panel, demonstrating you can remain up to date with LendInvest’s Handbook requirements is an excellent support to your application to their lender panel and, just as importantly, protect your panel status.

COMPLETIONmonitor creates real-time alerts, automatically produces compliance and CQS reports, and will enhance your firm's efficiency. It is also user friendly, cost-effective and, for some firms, leads to reduced PII premiums.

LendInvest Conveyancing Panel Recently Asked Questions from members of the public

My lawyer is not listed on the LendInvest Conveyancing Panel. Is it possible for me to use my preferred solicitor even though they are excluded from the LendInvest panel of approved conveyancing solicitors?
You will need to have a conveyancer complete the legal work required when you take out a LendInvest mortgage to buy your property. They’ll carry out all the necessary legal checks on the property, make sure that you’re properly registered as the owner and ensure that all the necessary mortgage documentation is in place. You can instruct a conveyancing firm of your choice. However, if the firm selected is not a member of the LendInvest conveyancing panel additional costs will be incurred as separate legal representation will be required by LendInvest. Conveyancing panel applications can be submitted, so if your conveyancer has not previously applied for membership they can do so.
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 LendInvest will not agree to this. Why was LendInvest even consulted?
Your lawyer being on the LendInvest conveyancing panel is duty bound to inform LendInvest of any changes to the purchase price. If you were to refuse your lawyers to disclose the reduction to LendInvest then they would have to discontinue acting for you and LendInvest.
I have been looking for conveyancing quotes online. Can I be sure that all the law firms that are identified on your site are on the LendInvest conveyancing panel?
The solicitor and licensed conveyancing practices listed on our site have assured us via an online form that they are on the LendInvest panel and agreed to advise us to take down their listing in the event of removal off of the LendInvest panel. To date we have not been informed by either a bank or a member of the public that the data about a specific firm being on the LendInvest conveyancing panel is incorrect.
We're in Liverpool, FTBs purchasing with a mortgage (lender is LendInvest , but our solicitor is on the LendInvest conveyancing panel). How long should the conveyancing process take?
The fact that your lawyer is on the LendInvest conveyancing panel is a help. It would almost certainly delay matters if they were not. However, no conveyancer should guarantee a time-frame for your conveyancing due to third parties outside of our control such as delays caused by lenders,conveyancing search providers or by the other side’s solicitors. The time taken is often determined by the number of parties in a chain
Two weeks ago we had a mortgage agreed in principle with LendInvest. Solicitors have been instructed? How long does it take for LendInvest to send the offer to our conveyancer
There is no definitive answer here. Have LendInvest done the valuation? Have you advised LendInvest as your lawyers details and checked that your lawyer is on the LendInvest conveyancing panel? It is not unusual for a mortgage offer to take a month to come through
For 5 years I had a mortgage with LendInvest. My uncle retired last week and wants to pay off my mortgage. After LendInvest 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 LendInvest conveyancing panel? I do not intend to live at the property once the LendInvest mortgage is discharged.
You will need a solicitor but they need not be on the LendInvest 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. As the property is your main residence you need not pay CGT but you should speak with your accountants in any event.
I have a mortgage with LendInvest. Conveyancing has been completed months ago. In the event that I decide to rent out the flat and do not currently have a buy-to-let mortgage do I need to remortgage to a buy-to-let mortgage or inform LendInvest?
LendInvest must be informed of your intention prior to renting your property as this is likely to be a breach of LendInvest’s mortgage conditions. In many cases banks or building societies will allow you to rent out your former home without needing to switch to a buy-to-let mortgage but some lenders will add a surcharge to your mortgage rate to reflect the higher risk. You should contact LendInvest directly. It should not be necessary to do this via a LendInvest conveyancing panel solicitor.
