My lawyer has discovered a a legal deficiency with the lease for the flat we are buying in Cyncoed. The other side have suggested title insurance as a workaround. We are content with insurance and will cover the costs. Our lawyer says that he must check that the lender is content with this solution. Are we the client or is the mortgage company ?
The short answer to your last question is that, notwithstanding the risk of a conflict of interest, you and the bank are the client. Your property lawyer must comply with the UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook specifications. The UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook conditions require your lawyer to disclose issues such as defects with the lease so that the lender can be afforded the opportunity to check with their valuer as to the extent that the value of the property is affected. Should you refuse to allow your lawyer to make the appropriate notification then your solicitor will have no choice but to discontinue acting for you.
I just acquired a property at auction in Cyncoed. Conveyancing is needed. What is next?
Having for all intents and purposes signed on the dotted line you should retain a conveyancing solicitor quickly as you are facing a tight deadline in which to complete the transaction. An auction property will have a bespoke auction pack. This should include the copy title deeds, local authority and drainage searches. If you have purchased leasehold premises the auction papers may contain a copy of the lease, management information and a sellers leasehold information form and other conveyancing documentation relating to leasehold premises. You must hand this to your appointed conveyancing solicitor as soon as possible. You also need to ensure that you have funds in place to complete the transaction on the set completion date.

I had an offer accepted on a house in Cyncoed on 9/4/2026, valuation was booked 4 days later, received a clean bill of health. Property lawyer instructed, so all that was missing was my mortgage offer. Having made daily calls to Bank of Ireland and chasing them on my offer, I have now been told that my offer will not be issued unless the lawyer is on the Bank of Ireland conveyancing panel. Can the lender hold off the offer?
Mortgage companies tend not to not issue an offer until they have details of a lawyer on their panel. It can take a few weeks for Bank of Ireland to deal with your lawyer's application to be on the Bank of Ireland conveyancing panel. There's no guarantee that your solicitor will be accepted.
