Please help. My Euxton solicitor is assuring me that he has toapply for Euxton conveyancing searches asthe firm are on the HSBCapproved lawyer panel. Is my conveyancer correct?
Unfortunately both you and your lawyer have little choice here. As you are obtaining a home loan with a mortgage company your property lawyer has to comply with their conditions as set out in their version of the CML Conveyancing Handbook. Your conveyancer would have previously signed the Terms and Conditions of your lender’s conveyancing panel appointment which obliges them to comply with the CML Handbook conditions . Even if you were a cash buyer you would be ill advised not to carry out Euxton conveyancing searches.
We had instructed conveyancing lawyers based in Euxton on the Lloyds solicitor approved list. They are now charging me a separate sum for the legal aspects of the Lloyds mortgage. Is this a supplemental conveyancing fee specified by Lloyds?
Provided it is contained in their Terms of Engagement or estimate then yes your lawyer is entitled to charge a fee for this. This fee is not set by Lloyds but by your Euxton conveyancing practitioner. Plenty of firms on the Lloyds panel will quote an ‘acting for lender’ fee and others do not.
We have agreed to purchase a house in Euxton. One unusual aspect is that the roof has a solar panel. Skipton have issued a mortgage offer so presumably this is not a concern to them. Why is my solicitor raising questions about the panel?
Given that you are obtaining a mortgage with Skipton your lawyer must follow the formal instructions outlined in Part two of UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook for Skipton. The CML Handbook sets out minimum provisions for solar panel roof-space leases, and conveyancers are required to report to Skipton where a lease does not comply with these specifications. The requirements relate to the installation of panels on properties nationwide and is not isolated to Euxton.
Co-operative have agreed my mortgage in principle, my offer on a flat in Euxton has been agreed to, now what?
Your estate agent will need to know who your solicitors are (make sure the property lawyers are on the bank’s panel). Telephone Co-operative or the broker and complete any appropriate documentation. Co-operative will appoint a valuer who will get in contact with the estate agent or owners to book a slot for the valuation to occur. Once carried out (assuming no problems) it takes approximately a week for the mortgage offer to be issued. Co-operative will issue the offer to you and your conveyancing practitioners. The legal work will then take it’s course according the nature and complexity of the conveyancing in Euxton.
