We previously appointed solicitors locally in Claverdon on the Bank of Ireland solicitor approved list. They have just billed me a separate sum for the legal aspects of the Bank of Ireland mortgage. Is this a supplemental conveyancing fee set by Bank of Ireland?

Yesterday I discovered that there is a flying freehold element on a property I put an offer in last month in what was supposed to be a quick, no chain conveyancing. Claverdon is where the house is located. Can you offer any assistance?
Flying freeholds in Claverdon are not the norm but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even though you don't necessarily need a conveyancing solicitor in Claverdon you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds thoroughly. Your bank may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Claverdon may determine that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold residence.

The benefit of a high street Claverdon conveyancing firm is that you can pop in to execute paperwork, deliver your ID and pester them if necessary. They will also have local insight which is a plus. That being said nothing is more important than finding someone that will pull out all the stops for you. If you know people who instructed your friend and they were content that should outweigh using an unknown Claverdon conveyancing solicitor just because they are round the corner.
