My fiance and I wish to acquire a purpose built apartment in Flamborough with a loan from Accord Mortgages Ltd.We have a Flamborough conveyancing solicitor but Accord Mortgages Ltd advised that she’s not on their approved list of firms. It seems we have little choice but to instruct a Accord Mortgages Ltd panel solicitor or keep our preferred solicitor and pay for a Accord Mortgages Ltd panel lawyer to represent them. This seems very unfair; Can we not simply insist that Accord Mortgages Ltd use our lawyer?

No, not really. The home loan issued to you contains various provisions, one of which will be that solicitors needs to be on the Accord Mortgages Ltd approved list. Until recently, most lenders had large numbers of law firms on their panels: a borrower could choose one for themselves, as long as it was on the lender's panel. The lender would then simply instruct the borrower's lawyers to act for the lender, too. You can use your lender's panel lawyers or you could borrow from another lender which does not restrict your choice. A further alternative is for your solicitors to apply to be on the conveyancing panel for Accord Mortgages Ltd

  2. where Aldermore has sent the Land Registry the discharge electronically, and
  3. Aldermore has instructed the Land Registry to do so

I have just appointed agents to market my 2 bed apartment in Flamborough.Conveyancing is yet to be initiated however I have recently received a half-yearly maintenance charge invoice – Do I pay up?

The sensible thing to do is pay the invoice as normal given that all rents and maintenance payments will be allottedon completion, so you will be reimbursed by the buyer for the period running from after the completion date to the subsequent invoice date. Most managing agents will not acknowledge the buyer unless the service charges have been paid and are up to date so it is important for both buyer and seller for the seller to show that they are up to date. Having a clear account will assist your cause and will leave you no worse off financially
