Please help - my lawyer advises that breach of easement insurance is needed on my purchase. What is the typical level of cover needed for conveyancing in Pudsey?
The right level of breach of easement indemnity insurance depends on who your lender is. It would differ for example between Birmingham Midshires and Virgin Money. Conveyancing solicitors as opposed to members of the public take out such policies.
We had selected conveyancing lawyers with offices in Pudsey on the Leeds Building Society solicitor panel. They are now charging me a supplemental charge for the legal aspects of the Leeds Building Society mortgage. Is this an additional conveyancing fee specified by Leeds Building Society?
Provided it is contained in their Terms of Engagement or Quote then yes your conveyancing practitioner can charge a fee for this. The charge is not dictated by Leeds Building Society but by your Pudsey lawyer. Numerous firms on the Leeds Building Society panel will levy an ‘acting for lender’ fee but some firms include it on their overall fee.
I am selling my apartment. I had a double glazing fitted in March 2007, but did not receive a FENSA certificate or Building Regulation Certificate. My buyer's mortgage company, Clydesdale are being a right pain. The Pudsey solicitor who is on the Clydesdale conveyancing panel is saying indemnity insurance will be fine but Clydesdale are requiring a building regulation certificate. Why do Clydesdale have a conveyancing panel if they don't accept advice from them?
It is probably the case that Clydesdale have referred the matter to their valuer. The reason why Clydesdale may not want to accept indemnity insurance is because it does not give them any reassurance that the double glazing was correctly and safely installed. The indemnity insurance merely protects against enforcement action which is very unlikely anyway.
