I am buying a semi-detached house in Conisborough. Conveyancing solicitors are said to be ‘a necessary evil’ but can I do it myself?
Leaving aside the complexities and merits of DIY conveyancing in Conisborough you will have to appoint a solicitor on your bank's conveyancing panel to look after their interests. Most people therefore find it easier to let the solicitor act for them and the lender. Furthermore there is minimal cost savings to be made in you doing conveyancing for yourself and another lawyer conducting the conveyancing for the lender.

The mortgage over my property is with UBS for my property in Conisborough. Conveyancing has been completed some time ago. Should I wish to rent out the flat and do not currently have a buy-to-let mortgage do I need to remortgage to a BTL mortgage or inform UBS?
You must advise UBS before renting your property as this is likely to be a breach of UBS’s mortgage conditions. In many cases banks or building societies 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 UBS directly. It should not be necessary to do this via a UBS conveyancing panel solicitor.
I recently had an offer accepted on an apartment in Conisborough. My mortgage broker suggested a conveyancer. I paid an on account payment of £200. Not long after, the conveyancer contacted me embarrassingly acknowledging that they were not on the Skipton conveyancing panel. Am I right in thinking that I should be due a refund?
You should be able to recover this from the law firm if they were not on the Skipton panel. They should have asked at the outset which lender you were obtaining a mortgage with. An important lesson to readers of this site is to check that the lawyers are on the appropriate lender panel.
Nottingham have agreed my home loan in principle, my offer on a flat in Conisborough has been agreed to, what are the next steps?
Your property agent will wish to be advised as to your property lawyer's details (be sure the solicitors are on the bank’s panel). Contact Nottingham or your financial adviser and complete any relevant documentation. Nottingham will instruct a valuer who will get in touch with the estate agent or vendor to schedule a slot for the valuation to take place. Once conducted (assuming no problems) it takes on average a week to get a mortgage offer. Nottingham will send the offer to you and your solicitors. The transaction will then take it’s course according the nature and complexity of the conveyancing in Conisborough.
