We previously selected conveyancers based in Shard End on the HSBC solicitor panel. They are now charging me an additional amount for the legal aspects of the HSBC mortgage. Is this an additional conveyancing fee set by HSBC?
Unfortunately, so long as it is in their Terms and Conditions or Quote then yes your solicitor is entitled to levy a fee for this. The charge is not dictated by HSBC but by your Shard End solicitor. Numerous firms on the HSBC panel will levy an ‘acting for lender’ fee and others do not.
I am buying a property in Shard End. A rare aspect is that the roof has a solar panel. Aldermore have issued a mortgage offer so presumably this is not a concern to them. Why is my solicitor raising questions about the panel?
As your lender is Aldermore your lawyer must comply with the formal instructions set out in Part two of UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook for Aldermore. The CML Handbook contains minimum specifications for solar panel roof-space leases, and conveyancers are required to report to Aldermore where a lease fails to comply with these provisions. The specifications relate to the installation of panels on properties in England and Wales and is not restricted to Shard End.
I was told four weeks ago that my mortgage has been agreed to by Principality. Is it usual for Principality to only issue the offer once my solicitor in Shard End is approved on their conveyancing panel? Principality have asked my solicitor to see a copy of their PI Insurance.

A small minority of properties in Shard End do contain a provision to say that subletting is only allowed with permission. The landlord is not entitled to unreasonably refuse but, in such cases, they would need to see references. Experience suggests that problems are usually caused by unsatisfactory tenants rather than owner-occupiers and for that reason you can expect the freeholder to take up the references and consider them carefully before granting consent.
