Due to complete my purchase in Eynsham next Thursday. I have now been asked to send a copy of my building insurance schedule by my solicitor as he says that he has to check this in his capacity as lawyer for the bank. What risks does the bank expect the insurance to cover?
All property lawyers on acting for mortgage companies would need to check that the following risks are covered fire; lightning; aircraft; explosion; earthquake; storm; flood; escape of water or oil; riot; malicious damage; theft or attempted theft; falling trees and branches and aerials; subsidence; heave;landslip;collision;accidental damage to underground services;professional fees, demolition and site clearance costs; and public liability to anyone else. There are some other issues such as the level of excess that are set out in a lender’s UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook instructions. These requirements are not limited to conveyancing in Eynsham.

We previously appointed conveyancing lawyers located in Eynsham on the RBS solicitor approved list. They are now charging me a further amount for handling the RBS mortgage. Is this an additional conveyancing fee set by RBS?
As unfair as it may appear, as long as it’s in their Terms of Engagement or Quote then yes your lawyer may charge a fee for this. The charge is not dictated by RBS but by your Eynsham lawyer. Some firms on the RBS panel will quote an ‘acting for lender’ fee and others do not.
Intending to buy a house in Eynsham. I have received an online quote from a licenced conveyancer, which states: "There will be no charge for dealing with the Building Society if you are obtaining a mortgage". I take this to mean that there will be no additional fee if the solicitor is on the Barclays conveyancing panel. I wanted to make sure it means there will be no additional fees for dealing with the mortgage.
They are simply saying that the cost for acting for the lender is included in the fee being quoted. It is worth you checking that the Eynsham lawyer is on the Barclays conveyancing panel.
How does conveyancing in Eynsham differ for new build properties?
Most buyers of new build property in Eynsham approach us having been asked by the builder to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the property is constructed. This is because developers in Eynsham usually buy 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 property lawyers 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 Eynsham or who has acted in the same development.
