It would be unwise to be tempted by the lowest Trafford Park conveyancing quote. You really do get what you pay for when it comes to conveyancing solicitors. A cheap quote may mean that the conveyancing solicitor is handling a lot of jobs at one time and you won’t get the quality of service and the attention that you need.

We previously appointed conveyancers locally in Trafford Park on the Bank of Ireland solicitor panel. They are now charging me a supplemental amount for the legal aspects of the Bank of Ireland mortgage. Is this a supplemental conveyancing fee specified by Bank of Ireland?

Unfortunately, so long as it is in their Terms of Engagement or Quote then yes your property lawyer can levy a fee for this. This fee is not dictated by Bank of Ireland but by your Trafford Park solicitor. Some firms on the Bank of Ireland panel will quote ’dealing with mortgage’ fee and others do not.

It is not clear whether my bank obliges me to make sure the lease term for the flat is extended prior to the completion date. I have called my Trafford Park building society branch on a couple of occasions and was told it wasn't an issue and they would lend. My Trafford Park conveyancing solicitor - who is on the bank conveyancing panel- called and was told they would not lend in accordance with their published requirements. I have no idea who is right.

The property lawyer has to follow the Council of Mortgage Lenders’ Handbook section two specifications for your bank. Unless your lawyer obtains specific confirmation in writing that the bank will go ahead, your lawyer has no choice but to refrain from exchanging contract and committing you to the purchase. We would suggest that you ask the mortgage company to contact your lawyer in writing confirming that they will accept the number of years remaining.

I am hoping to put an offer on a small detached house that seems to be perfect, at a great price which is making it all the more appealing.

The lease comes with conditions such as obtaining the freeholder’spermission to carry out alterations. It may be necessary to pay a contribution towards the upkeep of the communal areas where the property is located on an estate. Your conveyancer should appraise you on the various issues.
