Some advice if I may. My Kenley solicitor is informing me me that he has toorder Kenley conveyancing searches resulting from the fact thatthe firm are on the HSBCapproved lawyer panel. Do I not have any say here?

You have limited options available to you. Given that you are taking out a loan with a mortgage company your solicitor has to comply with their conditions as set out in their version of the CML Conveyancing Handbook. Your property lawyer would have previously signed the Terms and Conditions of your lender’s conveyancing panel appointment which obliges them to comply with the CML Handbook requirements . Even if you were a cash buyer you would be ill advised not to carry out Kenley conveyancing searches.

Its becoming the norm that commercial conveyancing solicitors in Kenley will order a SiteSolutions Highways report as it reduces the time that conveyancers expend in sourcing accurate data on highways that impact buildings and development assets in Kenley.

All being well we will complete our sale of a £350,000 garden flat in Kenley on Monday in a week. The landlords agents has quoted £312 for Certificate of Compliance, insurance certificate and previous years service charge statements. Is it legal for a freeholder to charge exorbitant fees for a flat conveyance in Kenley?

Kenley conveyancing on leasehold maisonettes usually involves the buyer’s solicitor submitting enquiries for the landlord to address. Although the landlord is not legally bound to answer such questions the majority will be willing to assist. They are entitled to invoice a reasonable administration fee for answering questions or supplying documentation. There is no upper cap for such fees. The average fee for the paperwork that you are referring to is £350, in some situations it exceeds £800. The administration charge required by the landlord must be accompanied by a synopsis of entitlements and obligations in relation to administration charges, without which the invoice is technically not due. Reality however dictates that one has no option but to pay whatever is requested of you if you want to complete the sale of your home.
