We previously appointed conveyancers based in Custom House on the UBS solicitor approved list. They are now charging me an additional fee for the legal aspects of the UBS mortgage. Is this a supplemental conveyancing fee specified by UBS?
Provided it is contained in their Terms and Conditions or estimate then yes your property lawyer can charge a fee for this. This fee is not set by UBS but by your Custom House lawyer. Some firms on the UBS panel will quote an ‘acting for lender’ fee but plenty of practices incorporate it on their overall fee.
The formalities of my purchase has taken place for my property in Custom House. Conveyancing was of an acceptable standard but I would like to complain about the lender. How does one go about formally complaining?
All banks and building societies have complaints procedures. Your first point of contact should be one of the lender’s branches or the Customer Care Department at head office. We understand that complaints to a lender are sorted out very quickly. However if you are not satisfied that the matter is not resolved you can write to Financial Ombudsman Service, South Quay Plaza, 183 Marsh Wall, London E14 9SR with full details of your complaint.
I can not fathom if my bank requires a lease extension. I have called my Custom House building society branch on numerous occasions and was advised it wasn't a problem and they will lend. My Custom House conveyancing solicitor - who is on the bank conveyancing panel- called to say that they will not lend based on their published requirements. Who do I believe?
As long as the conveyancing practitioner is on the mortgage company panel, they must adhere to the Council of Mortgage Lenders’ Handbook requirements for the 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 lender to contact your lawyer in writing confirming that they will accept the number of years remaining.
