We had appointed solicitors with offices in Brown Edge on the Bank of Ireland solicitor approved list. They are now charging me an additional sum for dealing with the Bank of Ireland mortgage. Is this an additional conveyancing fee specified by Bank of Ireland?
Provided it is contained in their Terms and Conditions or Quote then yes your solicitor can levy a fee for this. This charge is not dictated by Bank of Ireland but by your Brown Edge lawyer. Plenty of firms on the Bank of Ireland panel will quote an ‘acting for lender’ fee but plenty of firms include it on their overall fee.

We would always suggest that you speak with the solicitor handling your conveyancing.
What are your top tips when it comes to choosing a Brown Edge conveyancing practice to carry out our lease extension conveyancing?
If you are instructing a property lawyer for your lease extension (regardless if they are a Brown Edge conveyancing practice) it is imperative that he or she should be familiar with the legislation and specialises in this area of work. We advise that you talk with two or three firms including non Brown Edge conveyancing practices prior to instructing a firm. Where the conveyancing practice is ALEP accredited then so much the better. The following questions might be useful:
-
How familiar is the firm with lease extension legislation? If the firm is not ALEP accredited then why not?
I own a ground floor flat in Brown Edge, conveyancing formalities finalised 7 years ago. How much will my lease extension cost? Equivalent properties in Brown Edge with over 90 years remaining are worth £216,000. The ground rent is £50 invoiced annually. The lease ends on 21st October 2094
With 69 years left to run we estimate the price of your lease extension to range between £9,500 and £11,000 as well as costs.
The suggested premium range above a general guide to costs for renewing a lease, but we cannot give you the actual costs without more detailed investigations. You should not use the figures in a Notice of Claim or as an informal offer. There may be additional concerns that need to be taken into account and clearly you want to be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. Please do not move forward placing reliance on this information without first seeking the advice of a professional.
My lawyers in Brown Edge have advised me that they can not locate my conveyancing file. At the time of my purchase I took out a mortgage with the mortgage company. Is it case that being on the lender conveyancing panel they need to have retained the file for a number of years?
Different lenders have different requirements but many of the Terms and Conditions of Conveyancing Panel Appointment require the file to be held for a period of 6 years. That being said we have not seen a copy of the mortgage company Conveyancing Panel Terms. It might be worth you contacting the bank directly.
