Deeds - Changing the name

I am about to re-mortgage a percentage of my house, in order to help my Son get his foot on the property ladder.
The Solictitors said that I needed to get the deeds put in my name - as my Husband had died. They said they could do it for £250.00. I researched it through MSE and went on the Land Registry Office web site, printed off one form, posted it and within 4 days it was all done. Free of charge.

Yes. Perfectly straightforward to do this when there is no mortgage on a property. If there is, the lender will normally insist on a solicitor being used to ensure the charge is correctly registered.
