My fiance and I are hoping to buy a purpose built apartment in Kilgetty with a loan from TSB.We have a Kilgetty conveyancing solicitor but TSB says his firm is not on their "panel". We have to appoint a TSB panel lawyer or retain our preferred solicitor and fork out for a TSB panel lawyer to represent them. This seems very unfair; is there anything we can do?

No, not really. The loan issued to you contains terms and conditions, one of which will be that lawyers must be on the TSB solicitor panel. Until recently, most mortgage companies had large numbers of solicitors 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. Another option that might be available is for your lawyer to apply to be on the conveyancing panel for TSB

After the demise of Home Information Packs, energy assessments was left as a required component of selling a property. An EPC should be to hand prior to the property being marketed. This is not a task that law firms ordinarily arrange. If you are instructing a Kilgetty conveyancing solicitor they may be able to arrange energy assessments due to their relationships with long established Kilgetty energy assessors

I currently have a mortgage with Principality for my property in Kilgetty. Conveyancing was finalised months ago. If I am intending to rent out the flat and do not currently have a buy-to-let mortgage do I need to remortgage to a BTL mortgage or inform Principality?

You must advise Principality before letting out your property as this is likely to be a breach of Principality’s mortgage conditions. In many cases banks or building societies will permit you to let out your former home without needing to switch to a buy-to-let mortgage but some lenders will add a surcharge to your mortgage rate to reflect the higher risk. You should contact Principality directly. It should not be necessary to do this via a Principality conveyancing panel firm.

Santander have agreed my mortgage in principle, my bid on a house in Kilgetty has been accepted, what happens next?

Your property agent will need to be informed of your property lawyer's details (make sure the conveyancers are on the bank’s panel). Contact Santander or the financial adviser and finish off any appropriate paperwork. Santander will instruct a valuer who will get in contact with the estate agent or vendor to arrange a time for the valuation to take place. Once carried out (assuming no problems) it takes approximately ten days for the mortgage offer to be issued. Santander will send the offer to you and your conveyancing practitioners. The transaction will then take it’s course according the nature and complexity of the conveyancing in Kilgetty.
