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

This software facilitates the way you can prove to lender panels that you are, and can remain fully compliant with their instructions, with alerts on ModaMortgages’s changes. While utilising COMPLETIONmonitor is not a condition for acceptance on the ModaMortgages panel, demonstrating you can stay up to date with ModaMortgages’s Handbook requirements is a helpful support to your application to their lender panel and, more importantly, safeguard your panel status.

The system creates real-time alerts, automatically produces compliance and CQS reports, and will improve your firm's efficiency. In addition it is user friendly, cost-effective and, for some firms, results in reduced PII premiums.

Our conveyancer has discovered a legal deficiency with the lease for the flat we are buying. The other side have suggested defective title insurance as a solution.

Are we the client or is ModaMortgages?

My grandfather passed away 10 months ago and as sole heir and executor was left the house. The house had a relatively small loan remaining of approximately £4500. I want to transfer the title deeds into my name whilst I re-mortgage to ModaMortgages , pay off the mortgage etc. Is this possible?
If you intend to re-mortgage then ModaMortgages will insist on your using a conveyancer on the ModaMortgages conveyancing panel. Here is link to the Land Registry online guidance around what to do when a property owner dies. This will help you to understand the registration process behind changing the details re the registered title. in your case it would appear that you are effectively purchasing the property from the estate. Your ModaMortgages conveyancing panel solicitor pays the new mortgage money into the estate, the estate pays off the old mortgage, the charge is released and you become the owner and the ModaMortgages mortgage is registered as a charge at the Land Registry.
When it comes to lenders such as ModaMortgages do lawyers have to be pay a fee to be on the list of approved solicitors?
We are not aware of any lender fees to be on their panel although some do charge an administration charge to deal with the processing of the conveyancing panel application.
I previously instructed online conveyancers located in Bristol who are on the ModaMortgages solicitor panel. They are now charging me a separate fee of £150 for the legal aspects of the ModaMortgages mortgage. Is this a supplemental conveyancing fee specified by ModaMortgages?
Unfortunately, as long as it is in their Terms and Conditions or Quote then yes your solicitors can charge a fee for this. This fee is not set by ModaMortgages but by your lawyers. Some firms on the ModaMortgages will charge an ‘acting for lender’ fee but plenty of firms include it on their overall fee.
We expect to receive a DIP from ModaMortgages this week so we know how much we could potentially offer as otherwise we are dependent on web based calculators (which aren't taking into account credit checks etc).Do the ModaMortgages recommend a solicitor on the ModaMortgages conveyancing panel, or is it better to find our own lawyer
You will need to appoint solicitors independently although you'll need to choose one on the ModaMortgages conveyancing panel. The solicitor represents both you and the ModaMortgages through the process.
