The BSA Mortgage Instructions

Date: 16 Oct 2009
 
Print page  |   Email 

For those property transactions involving a mortgage, conveyancers and solicitors acting for lenders will usually follow standard conveyancing instructions and any specific requirements as set out by the lender providing the mortgage.

The BSA is introducing a set of mortgage instructions for its members. The aim is that the instructions will ensure that all building societies and other BSA members have access to a full set of standard instructions. The BSA Mortgage Instructions may be used by any BSA member as well as their subsidiaries.

There will be full conveyancing instructions for each of the following UK jurisdictions: England and Wales; Scotland; Northern Ireland; and Isle of Man. The Instructions are of the same standard as existing instructions.

Instructions for all parts of the UK come into effect from 1 January 2010. The instructions will be published and accessible online.

Further information on the BSA Mortgage Instructions is available in our FAQs below:
