I have just started taking steps with the aim of switching my current homeowner loan to a BTL Bank of Scotland mortgage. The bank has said that I require a solicitor as part of the process. I spoke to the same Dawlish conveyancing practitioner who who conducted the conveyancing when I initially bought the premises. The costs estimate they've given of £470 has surprised me as I am not require purchase conveyancing - it’s simply a bog-standard refinance.
The estimate does seem a little steep. If you are happy to invest time contrasting quotes you might trim some of the expense by perhaps £125.

Have completed on a a semi-detached house in Dawlish , What is the estimated time for the Land Registry to deal with the formalities evidencing my ownership? My Dawlish conveyancing solicitor has been painfully slow, so I want to be certain that my ownership is recorded.
As far as conveyancing in Dawlish registration is no quicker or slower than the rest of England and Wales. As opposed to being determined by geographic area, timescales can vary according to the party submitting the application, whether there are errors and whether the Land registry communicate with any interested persons or bodies. At present approximately three quarters of such applications are completed within two weeks but some can be subject to protracted hold-ups. Registration is effected after the purchaser has moved in to the premises so an expedited registration is not always primary concern but if it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your solicitor could communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for the application to be prioritised.
How does conveyancing in Dawlish differ for new build properties?
Most buyers of new build residence in Dawlish come to us having been asked by the housebuilder to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the residence is ready to move into. This is because developers in Dawlish tend to acquire the site, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct conveyancing solicitors as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are used to new build conveyancing in Dawlish or who has acted in the same development.
Yesterday I discovered that there is a flying freehold element on a property I have offered on two weeks back in what should have been a straight forward, no chain conveyancing. Dawlish is where the house is located. Can you shed any light on this issue?
Flying freeholds in Dawlish are unusual but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Dawlish you would need to get your solicitor to go through the deeds diligently. Your bank may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Dawlish 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 property.
