I currently have a mortgage with RBS for my property in Chertsey. Conveyancing has been completed months ago. If I am intending to rent out the flat and do not currently have a buy-to-let mortgage do I need to remortgage to a buy-to-let mortgage or inform RBS?

RBS must be informed of your intention before letting out your property as this is likely to be a breach of RBS’s mortgage conditions. It may be that RBS will permit you to let out your former home without needing to switch to a buy-to-let mortgage but some lenders will add a surcharge to your mortgage rate to reflect the higher risk. You should contact RBS directly. It should not be necessary to do this via a RBS conveyancing panel firm.

I'm buying a new build house in Chertsey with a mortgage from Leeds Building Society. The sellers refused to reduce the amount so I negotiated five thousand pounds worth of fixtures and fittings instead. The estate agent suggested that I not reveal to my solicitor about the extras as it may jeopardize my loan with Leeds Building Society. Is this normal?.

All lenders require a Disclosure of Incentives Form from the builder of any new build, converted or renovated property, It is available online from the Lenders’ Handbook page on the CML website. CML form is completed and handed to the lender's surveyor when the inspection is done.

Lenders have different policies on incentives. Some accept none at all, cash or physical, while others will accept cash incentives up to 5%.

Hard to understand why the representative of a builder would be suggesting you withold information from a solicitor when all this will be clearly visible on forms the builder has to supply to its solicitor, the buyer's solicitor and the surveyor.

Should I be wary by brokers that I am dealing with are recommending an online conveyancing firm as opposed to a local Chertsey conveyancing company?

Sometimes the lawyers might be known to one of the organisations as experts in their field, but occasionally there may be a financial incentive behind the endorsement. You have the discretion to select your own conveyancer. You need to be aware that some mortgage providers operate an approved list of lawyers you are obliged to use for the mortgage related work in your house move.
