Completion of my remortgage has taken place for my property in Arthog. Conveyancing was satisfactory but I feel I should register my dissatisfaction about the lender. How does one go about formally complaining?

Ordinarily complaints to a lender are sorted out effectively and efficiently. If you feel the matter is not resolved you can write to Financial Ombudsman Service with full details of your complaint.

After what feels like an age I have had an offer on a flat in Arthog accepted, but there is a chain. The sellers have offered on a flat, but it’s not been accepted yet, and are looking at other flats booked. I have instructed a bricks and mortar conveyancing solicitor in Arthog. What do I do now? When should I get the mortgage application with Aldermore started?

It is normal to have apprehensions where there is a chain as you are unlikely to want to incur expenses prematurely (home loan application is in the region of one thousand pounds, then survey, Arthog conveyancing search charges, etc). First, you must check that your property lawyer is on the Aldermore conveyancing panel. As to the next steps this very much dictated by the uniqueness of your transaction, attraction to this property and on the state of the market. During a hot market the majority of buyers would apply for the mortgage with Aldermore and arrange for the valuation and only if it was satisfactory would they ask their conveyancing practitioner to move forward with the conveyancing in Arthog.

Am I right to be wary by estate agents that I am dealing with are recommending a web based conveyancing firm rather than a local Arthog conveyancing practice?

As is the case with many professional services, often referrals from relatives can be very helpful.

On occasion the solicitors might be known to one of the organisations as experts in their field, but occasionally there behind the scenes financial incentive behind the endorsement. You are at liberty to select your own conveyancer. Don't forget that some banks specify a panel list of solicitors you must use for the mortgage aspect of your home move.
