Your conveyancer will check the registered title as conveyancing in Edgware can occasionally reveal restrictions in the title deeds which prohibit certain works or require the consent of a 3rd party.

We were going to get a AIP from RBS this week so we know how much we could potentially offer as otherwise we are dependent on web based calculators (which aren't taking into account credit checks etc).

You will need to appoint Edgware solicitors independently although you'll need to choose one on the RBS conveyancing panel. The solicitor represents both you and RBS through the process.

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 Edgware lawyer is on the Bank of Ireland conveyancing panel.
