I had a mortgage agreed in principle with Principality. Monken Hadley conveyancing solicitors have been appointed. How long does it take for Principality to issue the offer to the solicitor?
Some lenders take longer than others. Have Principality completed the survey? Have you informed Principality as to your lawyers' details and checked that your lawyers are on the Principality conveyancing panel? It is not unusual for a mortgage offer to take a month to come through.
At last I have had an offer on a maisonette in Monken Hadley agreed to, the sellers do however have a connected purchase. The sellers have placed an offer on a flat, but it’s not yet agreed to, and are looking at other properties in the pipeline. I have instructed a bricks and mortar conveyancing solicitor in Monken Hadley. What should be my next step? At what stage should I apply for the mortgage with Kent Reliance?
It is normal to have concerns where there is a chain as you are unlikely to want to be too out of pocket too early (home loan application is approx one thousand pounds, then survey, Monken Hadley conveyancing search fees, etc). The first thing to do is ensure that your property lawyer is on the Kent Reliance approved list. Concerning the next phase this very much dictated by the specifics of your transaction, motivation for the property and on the state of the market. During a hot market the majority of home buyers would apply for a home loan with Kent Reliance and arrange for the valuation and only if it comes back ok would they request their lawyer to move forward with searches.

Where service of notices and proceedings can be at the property demised please confirm that this can be amended to include simultaneous services at the Lessees’ solicitors’ offices where the Lessee from time to time is not resident in the UK - such solicitors may be varied by notice in writing to the Landlord from time to time but otherwise will be as previously specified. Where there is an Undertaking being granted there is the risk of forfeiture of the Headlease subject to relief if one or more of the Underlessees are willing to accept the original Head Lessee’s obligations as otherwise relief will be denied to the Underlessees. The only alternatives are the Head Lessor agreeing not to forfeit the Headlease or the Head Lessee guaranteeing to the Underlessees that it will not be in breach of the Headlease. Will the freehold then be transferred for a nominal consideration (not exceeding £100) to the Management Company? If there are lifts in the building, please confirm that the owners of flats on the ground and basement floors will not be required to contribute towards the cost of maintenance and renewal. Investor purchasers must be able to freely grant unsecured tenancies at market rents without requiring any consents.
