Planning on purchasing a flat in Snaith. I have received an online quote from a licenced conveyancer, which states: "There will be no charge for dealing with the Lender if you are obtaining a mortgage". I take this to mean that there will be no additional fee if the solicitor is on the RBS conveyancing panel. 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 Snaith solicitor is on the RBS conveyancing panel.
I was told four weeks ago that my mortgage has been agreed to by Nottingham. Is it usual for Nottingham to only issue the offer once my solicitor in Snaith is approved on their conveyancing panel? Nottingham have asked my solicitor to see a copy of their Professional Indemnity Insurance Schedule.
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 Nottingham to deal with your lawyer's application to be on the Nottingham conveyancing panel. There's no guarantee that your solicitor will be accepted.
At last I have had an offer on an apartment in Snaith accepted, the owners do nevertheless have a dependent purchase. The vendors have put an offer on somewhere, however it’s not been accepted yet, and are looking at other properties in the pipeline.

It is normal to have apprehensions where there is a chain as you are unlikely to want to be too out of pocket prematurely (home loan application is in the region of £1k, then survey, Snaith conveyancing search fees, etc). The first course of action is to ensure that your conveyancer is on the Kent Reliance conveyancing panel. Concerning the subsequent phase this very much depends on the circumstances of your transaction, attraction to the property and on the state of the market. During a rising market the majority of home buyers would apply for the mortgage with Kent Reliance and arrange for the valuation and only if it was satisfactory would they request their conveyancing practitioner to proceed with searches.
Have completed on a a semi-detached house in Snaith , how long should it take for the Land Registry to record my proprietorship? My Snaith conveyancing solicitor has been very slow, so I want to be certain that my purchase is recorded.
There is nothing unique about conveyancing in Snaith registration formalities. As opposed to being determined by geographic area, timescales can adjust according to the party submitting the application, whether there are errors and if the Land registry must send notices to any interested persons or bodies. At present roughly three quarters of such applications are fully dealt with within 12 days but some can be subject to protracted delays. Historically registration is effected once the buyer is living at the property therefore an expedited registration is not usually top priority but if it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your conveyancer should communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for the application to be prioritised.
I'm purchasing my first flat in Snaith with a mortgage from Godiva Mortgages Ltd. The builders refused to move on the price so I negotiated five thousand pounds worth of extras instead.

All lenders require a Disclosure of Incentives Form from the builder 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.
