Last month we had a mortgage agreed in principle with Aldermore. Rowen conveyancing lawyers have been chosen. What is the average time that one could expect to receive a mortgage offer from Aldermore?

There is no definitive answer here. Have Aldermore conducted the survey? Have you advised Aldermore as to your lawyers' details and checked that your lawyers are on the Aldermore conveyancing panel? It is not unusual for a mortgage offer to take a month to come through.

I was told two weeks ago that my mortgage has been agreed to by Skipton. Is it usual for Skipton to only issue the offer once my solicitor in Rowen is approved on their conveyancing panel? Skipton have asked my solicitor to see a copy of their PI Insurance.

Mortgage companies tend not to not issue a mortgage until they have details of a lawyer on their panel. It can take a few weeks for Skipton to deal with your lawyer's application to be on the Skipton conveyancing panel. There's no guarantee that your solicitor will be accepted.

At last I have had an offer on an apartment in Rowen agreed to, the owners do however have a connected purchase. The sellers have placed an offer on on an apartment, but it’s not yet agreed to, and have viewings of other apartments booked. I have instructed a nearby conveyancing solicitor in Rowen. What should be my next step? At what point do I apply for the mortgage with Virgin Money?

It is usual to have anxieties where there is a chain as you are unlikely to want to be too out of pocket too early (home loan application is approx £1k, then survey, Rowen conveyancing search charges, etc). The first thing to do is check that your conveyancer is on the Virgin Money approved list. Concerning the next stages this very much depends on the specifics of your transaction, attraction to the property and on the state of the market. During a buoyant market some buyers will apply for the mortgage with Virgin Money and pay for the valuation and only if it was satisfactory would they ask their conveyancer to move forward with searches.

I am buying my first flat in Rowen with a loan from The Royal Bank of Scotland. The sellers would not reduce the amount so I negotiated 6k of fixtures and fittings instead. The property agent advised me not to tell my solicitor about this side-deal as it could adversely affect my mortgage with the lender. Should I keep quiet?.

All lenders require a Disclosure of Incentives Form from the developer of any new build, converted or renovated property, It is available online from the Lenders’ Handbook page on the CML website. CML form is completed and handed to the lender's surveyor when the inspection is done.

Lenders have different policies on incentives. Some accept none at all, cash or physical, while others will accept cash incentives up to 5%.

Hard to understand why the representative of a builder would be suggesting you withold information from a solicitor when all this will be clearly visible on forms the builder has to supply to its solicitor, the buyer's solicitor and the surveyor.

I decided to have a survey carried out on a property in Rowen prior to appointing lawyers. I have been told that there is a flying freehold aspect to the property. My surveyor has said that some banks may not grant a mortgage on this type of property.

It varies from the lender to lender. Santander has different instructions for example to Birmingham Midshires. Should you wish to call us we can look into this further via the relevant bank. If you lender is happy to lend one our lawyers can help as they are accustomed to dealing with flying freeholds in Rowen. Conveyancing will be smoother if you use a solicitor in Rowen especially if they regularly deal with such properties in Rowen.

I'm converting the mortgage on my existing property to a BTL mortgage with Skipton Building Society and intend to use the remaining equity as a deposit on further property. The area we are looking at is Rowen. Will your conveyancers be able to act for the two mortgage companies and link together the transactions?

Make use of our search tool on this site to check that the lawyers are approved by both mortgage companies. On the basis that they are the conveyancer should be able to tie up the two deals but you should talk with you lawyer and make clear your desired outcome and requirements.
