We previously appointed conveyancers based in Morganstown on the Coventry BS solicitor panel. They have just billed me an additional charge for dealing with the Coventry BS mortgage. Is this a supplemental conveyancing fee specified by Coventry BS?
As unfair as it may seem, as long as it’s in their Terms and Conditions or Quote then yes your conveyancer can levy a fee for this. The charge is not set by Coventry BS but by your Morganstown solicitor. Numerous firms on the Coventry BS panel will quote ’dealing with mortgage’ fee and others do not.

I wanted to make sure it means there will be no additional fees for dealing with the mortgage.
They are simply saying that the cost for acting for the lender is included in the fee being quoted. It is worth you checking that the Morganstown conveyancer is on the Nottingham conveyancing panel.
How does conveyancing in Morganstown differ for newly converted properties?
Most buyers of new build residence in Morganstown approach us having been asked by the builder to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the residence is ready to move into. This is because developers in Morganstown typically purchase the site, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct conveyancers as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are used to new build conveyancing in Morganstown or who has acted in the same development.
