We had chosen solicitors with offices in Ash on the Yorkshire BS solicitor approved list. They have just billed me a further fee for handling the Yorkshire BS mortgage. Is this a supplemental conveyancing fee specified by Yorkshire BS?
Unfortunately, so long as it is in their Terms of Engagement or Quote then yes your conveyancing practitioner can charge a fee for this. The charge is not dictated by Yorkshire BS but by your Ash solicitor. Plenty of firms on the Yorkshire BS panel will quote an ‘acting for lender’ fee but many practices incorporate it on their overall fee.
It is unclear whether my lender requires a lease extension. I have telephoned my Ash bank branch on a couple of occasions and was told it does not affect the mortgage offer and they will lend. My Ash conveyancing solicitor - who is on the lender conveyancing panel- telephoned to say that they will not lend in accordance with their specific requirements. I have no idea who is right.
As long as the property lawyer is on the bank approved list, they must follow the CML Handbook requirements for the bank. Unless your lawyer obtains specific confirmation in writing that the mortgage company will go ahead, your lawyer has no choice but to refrain from exchanging contract and committing you to the purchase. We would suggest that you ask the bank to contact your lawyer in writing confirming that they will accept the number of years left on the lease.
At last I have had an offer on a flat in Ash accepted, but there is a chain. The vendors have offered on a flat, however it’s not yet tied up, and are looking at other properties in the pipeline. I have chosen a nearby conveyancing solicitor in Ash. What should be my next step? When do I get the mortgage application with Yorkshire BS started?
It is usual to have concerns where there is a chain as you are unlikely to want to incur costs prematurely (home loan application is in the region of one thousand pounds, then survey, Ash conveyancing search charges, etc). The first course of action is to check that your lawyer is on the Yorkshire BS conveyancing panel. Regarding the subsequent steps this very much depends on the specifics of your transaction, motivation for this property and on the state of the market. In a hot market many home buyers would apply for the mortgage with Yorkshire BS and arrange for the valuation and only if it was satisfactory would they ask their lawyer to proceed with searches.
