We are buying a 1 bedroom flat in Aberporth with a mortgage from Bank of Scotland.We would like to retain our Aberporth conveyancing solicitor but Bank of Scotland says he's not on their approved list of firms. We have to appoint a Bank of Scotland panel solicitor or retain our local solicitor and fork out for a Bank of Scotland panel lawyer to represent them. This seems very unfair; Can we not simply insist that Bank of Scotland use our lawyer?
No, not really. The mortgage issued to you contains various provisions, a common one being that solicitors must be on the Bank of Scotland approved list. in the past, most banks had large numbers of solicitors on their panels: a borrower could find one for themselves, as long as it was on the lender's panel. The lender would then simply instruct the borrower's lawyers to act for the lender, too. You can use your lender's panel lawyers or you could borrow from another lender which does not restrict your choice. Another option that might be available is for your lawyer to apply to be on the conveyancing panel for Bank of Scotland

Here are examples of a few leasehold new build questions that you can expect your new-build leasehold conveyancing in Aberporth
-
The Lease must contain a provision on behalf of the Vendor to pay the service charges in respect of unoccupied units in order to ensure that all services can be provided. Where there is an Undertaking being granted there is the risk of forfeiture of the Headlease subject to relief if one or more of the Underlessees are willing to accept the original Head Lessee’s obligations as otherwise relief will be denied to the Underlessees. The only alternatives are the Head Lessor agreeing not to forfeit the Headlease or the Head Lessee guaranteeing to the Underlessees that it will not be in breach of the Headlease. Will the freehold then be transferred for a nominal consideration (not exceeding £100) to the Management Company? Investor purchasers must be able to freely grant unsecured tenancies at market rents without requiring any consents. The Vendor must covenant to keep unoccupied units in good repair until long leases are granted therefore.
I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold element on a house I put an offer in a fortnight ago in what should have been a quick, chain free conveyancing. Aberporth is where the house is located. Can you shed any light on this issue?
Flying freeholds in Aberporth are rare but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Aberporth you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds diligently. Your lender may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Aberporth may decide that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold property.
