My husband and I are getting closer to an exchange on a flat in Brockenhurst and my mum and dad have transferred the ten percent deposit to my conveyancing practitioner. I am now told that as the deposit has been received from someone other than me my solicitor needs to disclose this to my lender. Apparently, in also acting for the mortgage company he must advise them that the balance of the purchase price is not just from me. I disclosed to the bank about my parents' contribution when I applied for the home loan, so is it really necessary for him to raise this?
The property lawyer is duty bound to check with lender to make sure that they know that the balance of the purchase price is not from your own funds. The solicitor can only reveal this to your lender if you agree, failing which, your lawyer must cease to continue acting.
Are the Brockenhurst conveyancing solicitors identified as being on the Principality conveyancing panel, together with their details provided by Principality?
Brockenhurst conveyancing firms themselves provide us confirmation that they are on the Principality conveyancing panel as opposed to being supplied with a list from Principality directly.
Are the BSA intent on creating a search tool with a view to to identify solicitors on the Norwich and Peterborough Building Society conveyancing panel for instance in Brockenhurst?
Lexsure has not been advised of any plans on the part of the BSA to develop such a tool.
When it comes to mortgage companies such as Principality, do Brockenhurst solicitors face a yearly amount to be on the list of approved solicitors?
We are unaware of any lender fees to be on their list of approved firms, although some do levy an administration fee to deal with the processing of the conveyancing panel application.
I can not work out if my bank requires a lease extension. I have called into my local Brockenhurst bank branch on various occasions and was advised it wasn't an issue and they would lend. My Brockenhurst conveyancing solicitor - who is on the lender conveyancing panel- telephoned to say that they will not lend in accordance with their specific requirements. I simply don't know who is right.
Provided that the conveyancer is on the bank panel, they must comply with the Council of Mortgage Lenders’ Handbook requirements for the lender. 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 remaining.
After what seems like an age I have had an offer on a maisonette in Brockenhurst accepted, but there is a chain. The vendors have offered on a flat, but it’s not yet agreed to, and have viewings of other properties booked. I have chosen a local conveyancing solicitor in Brockenhurst. What do I do now? When do I get the mortgage application with Nationwide started?
It is understandable to have apprehensions where there is a chain as you are unlikely to want to be too out of pocket too early (home loan application is approx £1k, then survey, Brockenhurst conveyancing search fees, etc). First, you must ensure that your conveyancing practitioner is on the Nationwide approved list. As to the subsequent stages this very much depends on the circumstances of your transaction, motivation for the property and on the state of the market. During a rising market some home buyers will apply for the mortgage with Nationwide and arrange for the valuation and only if it was satisfactory would they ask their conveyancing practitioner to move forward with the conveyancing in Brockenhurst.
