We previously selected conveyancing lawyers based in Tongwynlais on the TSB solicitor panel. They are now charging me a further amount for the legal aspects of the TSB mortgage. Is this an additional conveyancing fee specified by TSB?

Unfortunately, so long as it is in their Terms of Engagement or Quote then yes your conveyancer may charge a fee for this. This fee is not dictated by TSB but by your Tongwynlais solicitor. Numerous firms on the TSB panel will quote an ‘acting for lender’ fee but plenty of practices incorporate it on their overall fee.

We have agreed to purchase a house in Tongwynlais. A rare aspect is that the roof has a solar panel. Nottingham have issued a mortgage offer so presumably this is not a concern to them. Why is my solicitor raising questions about the panel?

As you are obtaining a mortgage with Nottingham your lawyer must check the conveyancing requirements contained in Part 2 of UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook for Nottingham. The Council of Mortgage Lenders’ Handbook stipulates minimum provisions for solar panel roof-space leases, and solicitors are required to report to Nottingham where a lease does not satisfy these specifications. The specifications relate to the installation of panels on properties nationwide and is not isolated to Tongwynlais.

I have finally had an offer on a maisonette in Tongwynlais agreed to, the sellers do however have a tied purchase. The owners have offered on a flat, however it’s not yet agreed to, and are looking at other apartments booked. I have selected a high street conveyancing solicitor in Tongwynlais. What should be my next step? At what point should I apply for the mortgage with Bank of Ireland?

It is understandable to have concerns where there is a chain as you are unlikely to want to be too out of pocket prematurely (mortgage application is in the region of one thousand pounds, then valuation, Tongwynlais conveyancing search charges, etc). The first course of action is to ensure that your solicitor is on the Bank of Ireland approved list. Concerning the subsequent stages this very much dictated by the circumstances of your transaction, attraction to this property and on the state of the market. In a hot market many purchasers will apply for a home loan with Bank of Ireland and pay for the valuation and only if it was satisfactory would they pay their conveyancing practitioner to press on with the conveyancing in Tongwynlais.

Do I need to take out insurance to protect me from financial exposure to chancel repairs when buying a house in Tongwynlais?

Unless a prior purchase of the property took place after 12 October 2013 you may expect lawyers handling conveyancing in Tongwynlais to continue to propose a a chancel search and or chancel repair liability insurance.

I have been on the look out for a ground for flat up to £245,000 and found one round the corner in Tongwynlais I like with amenity areas and transport links in the vicinity, the downside is that it only has 61 years unexpired on the lease. There is not much else in Tongwynlais for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake buying a lease with such few years left?

Should you need a mortgage that many years may be problematic. Discount the price by the anticipated lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the current proprietor has owned the property for at least 2 years you may ask them to commence the lease extension formalities and pass it to you. You can add 90 years to the existing lease and have £0 ground rent by law. You should consult your conveyancing solicitor about this.
