We had instructed solicitors locally in Huddersfield on the Bank of Ireland solicitor panel. They have just billed me a supplemental amount for handling the Bank of Ireland mortgage. Is this an additional conveyancing fee set by Bank of Ireland?
Unfortunately, so long as it is in their Terms of Engagement or Quote then yes your solicitor may levy a fee for this. The fee is not dictated by Bank of Ireland but by your Huddersfield conveyancer. Some firms on the Bank of Ireland panel will quote an ‘acting for lender’ fee but plenty of practices incorporate it on their overall fee.

I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold element on a property I have offered on a fortnight ago in what should have been a quick, no chain conveyancing. Huddersfield is where the house is located. What do you suggest?
Flying freeholds in Huddersfield are rare but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Huddersfield you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds thoroughly. Your bank may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Huddersfield may decide that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold property.

If the lease is recorded at the land registry - and almost all are in Huddersfield - then the leasehold title will always include the short particulars of the lease, namely the date; the term; and the original parties. From a conveyancing perspective such details then enable any prospective buyer and lender to confirm that any lease they are looking at is the one relevant to that title. For any other purpose, such as confirming how long the term was granted for and calculating what is left, then the register should be sufficient on it's own.
