Completion of my purchase has taken place for my property in Exmouth. Conveyancing was satisfactory but I feel I should register my dissatisfaction about the lender. Who do I contact should I wish to lodge a complaint?
Almost all banks and building societies have complaints procedures. Your first point of contact should be one of the lender’s branches or the Customer Care Department at head office. Ordinarily complaints to a lender are sorted out very quickly. However if you are not satisfied that the matter is not resolved you can write to Financial Ombudsman Service who will take matters further.
After weeks of negotiation I have agreed a price on an apartment in Exmouth. My mortgage broker recommended their conveyancers. I paid an advanced payment of £175. A few days later, the solicitor contacted me sheepishly admitting that they were not on the Santander 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 Santander 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.
I have instructed a Exmouth property lawyer having made sure that they are on the Santander conveyancing panel. Does my lawyer arrange the survey of the property?
Santander will need an independent valuation of the property. Your lawyer will not arrange this. Usually Santander will appoint their own surveyor to do this, and you will have to pay for it. Remember that this is a valuation for mortgage purposes and not a survey. Your conveyancer will not organise the survey but they may be able to put you in touch with a local one that they recommend. RICS offers a find a surveyor service (just google it) where you can search for a qualified surveyor by your Exmouth postcode. As you are getting a mortgage with Santander, you could contact them to see if they have a list of approved surveyors in Exmouth.
The deeds to our home can not be found. The solicitors who dealt with the conveyancing in Exmouth 4 years ago have long since closed. Will I be able to sell the house?

I'm buying my first flat in Exmouth with a loan from Leeds Building Society. The builders refused to move on the price so I negotiated 6k of extras instead. The house builders rep suggested that I not disclose to my conveyancer about the side-deal as it may put at risk my mortgage with the bank. Should I keep quiet?.

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.
