I'm in the process of swapping over from my current residential loan to a BTL Norwich and Peterborough Building Society mortgage. I have been informed by my broker that I must appoint a solicitor as part of the process. I got in contact with my former Bingham conveyancing practitioner who acted on my behalf when I first acquired the house. The fee calculation supplied of just over five hundred pounds is surprising as its a refinance than a sale or purchase.

We had appointed conveyancing lawyers located in Bingham on the UBS solicitor approved list. They have just billed me a supplemental fee for the legal aspects of the UBS mortgage. Is this an additional conveyancing fee set by UBS?
Unfortunately, so long as it is in their Terms and Conditions or estimate then yes your lawyer is entitled to charge a fee for this. This charge is not dictated by UBS but by your Bingham lawyer. Plenty of firms on the UBS panel will levy an ‘acting for lender’ fee but some practices incorporate it on their overall fee.
