We had appointed conveyancing lawyers based in The Ridgeway on the Skipton solicitor panel. They have just billed me a further fee for the legal aspects of the Skipton mortgage. Is this a supplemental conveyancing fee specified by Skipton?

As unfair as it may seem, as long as it’s in their Terms and Conditions or Quote then yes your conveyancing practitioner may charge a fee for this. The fee is not dictated by Skipton but by your The Ridgeway conveyancer. Some firms on the Skipton panel will levy ’dealing with mortgage’ fee but some firms include it on their overall fee.

Two weeks ago we had a mortgage agreed in principle with Co-operative. The Ridgeway conveyancing practitioners have been chosen. What is the average time that one could expect to receive a mortgage offer from Co-operative?

Some lenders take longer than others. Have Co-operative completed the valuation? Have you informed Co-operative as to your lawyers' details and checked that your lawyers are on the Co-operative conveyancing panel? It is not unusual for a mortgage offer to take a month to come through.

I am buying a property in The Ridgeway. A rare aspect is that the roof has a solar panel. Bank of Ireland have issued a mortgage offer so presumably this is not a concern to them. Why is my solicitor raising questions about the panel?

Given that your lender is Bank of Ireland your lawyer must comply with the conveyancing requirements set out in Section two of UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook for Bank of Ireland. The Council of Mortgage Lenders’ Handbook contains minimum requirements for solar panel roof-space leases, and lawyers are required to report to Bank of Ireland where a lease does not satisfy these specifications. The provisions relate to the installation of panels on properties nationwide and is not limited to The Ridgeway.

Me and my brother own a terraced Victorian house in The Ridgeway. Conveyancing lawyer represented me and Yorkshire Building Society. I did a free Land Registry search last week and there are two entries: the first freehold, the second leasehold with the matching address. If a house is not a freehold shouldn't I have been informed?

You need to assess the Freehold register you have again and check the Charges Register for mention of a lease. The best way to be sure that you are also the registered proprietor of the leasehold and freehold title as well is to check (£3). It is not completely unheard of in The Ridgeway and other areas of the country and poses no real issues for owners other than when they buy they have to account for both freehold and leasehold interests when dealing with lenders. You can also question the position with your conveyancing practitioner who completed the work.
