We previously instructed conveyancers locally in Harton on the Virgin Money solicitor approved list. They are now charging me an additional fee for handling the Virgin Money mortgage. Is this an additional conveyancing fee specified by Virgin Money?
As unfair as it may appear, as long as it’s in their Terms and Conditions or Quote then yes your conveyancer can charge a fee for this. This charge is not set by Virgin Money but by your Harton conveyancing practitioner. Numerous firms on the Virgin Money panel will charge ’dealing with mortgage’ fee and others do not.

I have been on the look out for a ground for flat up to £305k and found one close by in Harton I like with open areas and transport links in the vicinity, however it only has 52 years on the lease. There is not much else in Harton suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake buying a lease with such few years left?
If you need a home loan that many years will likely be an issue. Reduce the price by the amount the lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the current proprietor has owned the premises for a minimum of twenty four months you may request that they start the process of the extension and then assign it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the current lease term and have £0 ground rent by law. You should consult your conveyancing lawyer regarding this matter.
I am using a search engine for the term on line conveyancing in Harton it reveals numerous solicitorsin the area. With so much choice what is the best way to find the right property lawyer for my move?
