We previously chose solicitors located in Acrefair on the RBS solicitor approved list. They are now charging me a further charge for handling the RBS mortgage. Is this a supplemental conveyancing fee set by RBS?
As unfair as it may appear, as long as it’s in their Terms and Conditions or estimate then yes your solicitor can levy a fee for this. This charge is not dictated by RBS but by your Acrefair solicitor. Some firms on the RBS panel will charge an ‘acting for lender’ fee but some firms include it on their overall fee.
Last month we had a mortgage agreed in principle with Clydesdale. Acrefair conveyancing lawyers are instructed. What is the average time that one could expect to receive a mortgage offer from Clydesdale?
Some lenders take longer than others. Have Clydesdale done the survey? Have you advised Clydesdale as to your lawyers' details and checked that your lawyers are on the Clydesdale conveyancing panel? Sometimes it can take as long as six weeks for a mortgage offer to be issued.

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 Acrefair property lawyer is on the Virgin Money conveyancing panel.

I am looking for a flat up to £195,000 and identified one close by in Acrefair I like with open areas and transport links nearby, however it only has 49 remaining years left on the lease. There is not much else in Acrefair in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake purchasing a lease with such few years left?
Should you need a home loan the remaining unexpired lease term may be problematic. Reduce the price by the expected lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the current owner has owned the property for at least 2 years you could ask them to start the process of the extension and pass it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the existing lease term and have £0 ground rent by law. You should speak to your conveyancing lawyer regarding this.
