I have a mortgage with Coventry BS for my property in Martlesham. Conveyancing has been completed some time 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 Coventry BS?
Your original mortgage agreement with Coventry BS will provide that you need their approval before renting your property as this is likely to be a breach of Coventry BS’s mortgage conditions. It may be that Coventry BS 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 Coventry BS directly. You need not do this via a Coventry BS conveyancing panel firm.
RBS have agreed my home loan in principle, my offer on a apartment in Martlesham has been agreed to, what happens next?
Your property agent will wish to know who your solicitors are (ensure that the lawyers are on the bank’s approved list). Telephone RBS or your broker and finalise any relevant documentation. RBS will instruct a valuer who will get in touch with the estate agent or owners to arrange a slot for the valuation to occur. Once carried out (assuming no problems) it takes approximately a fortnight to get a mortgage offer. RBS will send the offer to you and your conveyancers. The legal work will then take it’s course according the nature and complexity of the conveyancing in Martlesham.

Is there a reason that Martlesham conveyancing charges are higher for leasehold and freehold properties?
If purchasing a leasehold property there is more work involved purely due to the fact that usually there are further parties involved in the form of the freeholder and/or Management Agents. As part of a lawyers enquiries they will check that all ground rent and service charges are paid up to date amongst other general leasehold matters. For this reason, the Sellers lawyers usually have to refer to the freeholder or Managing Agent for their replies to our questions. This may be time consuming and beyond the lawyers control
