We had appointed conveyancing lawyers locally in Dockland Settlement on the TSB solicitor panel. They have just invoiced me a separate sum for handling the TSB mortgage. Is this a supplemental conveyancing fee set by TSB?
As unfair as it may seem, as long as it’s in their Terms of Engagement or Quote then yes your conveyancer may charge a fee for this. This fee is not set by TSB but by your Dockland Settlement conveyancer. Plenty of firms on the TSB panel will charge an ‘acting for lender’ fee and others do not.
I have finally had an offer on a flat in Dockland Settlement accepted, the sellers do nevertheless have an associated purchase. The sellers have offered on on an apartment, but it’s not yet tied up, and are looking at other flats booked. I have chosen a local conveyancing solicitor in Dockland Settlement. What should be my next step? When should I get the mortgage application with TSB started?
It is normal to have apprehensions where there is a chain as you are unlikely to want to incur costs prematurely (home loan application is approx one thousand pounds, then valuation, Dockland Settlement conveyancing search charges, etc). First, you should check that your lawyer is on the TSB conveyancing panel. Concerning the subsequent stages this very much depends on the uniqueness of your case, desire for the property and on the state of the market. During a rising market the majority of buyers would apply for the mortgage with TSB and pay for the valuation and only if it was satisfactory would they request their conveyancing practitioner to press on with the conveyancing in Dockland Settlement.
I am downsizing from our property in Dockland Settlement and according to the buyers it appears that there is a possibility that the property was constructed on contaminated land. A local lawyer would know this is not the case. For the life of me I don't know why the buyers instructed a nationwide conveyancing firm rather than a conveyancing solicitor in Dockland Settlement. Having lived in Dockland Settlement for six years we know of no issue. Should we get in touch with our local Authority to seek clarification that the buyers are looking for.
It sounds as though you may have a conveyancing solicitor already. What do they say? You must enquire of your lawyer before you do anything. It is very possible that once the local authority has been informed of a potential issue it cannot be insured against (a bit like being diagnosed with a serious illness and then taking out life insurance to cover that same ailment)
I'm buying a new build house in Dockland Settlement with the aid of help to buy. The builders refused to reduce the price so I negotiated five thousand pounds worth of fixtures and fittings instead.

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.
