I am currently in the process of buying my council flat in Hermon. I have a mortgage agreed with Barclays. Conveyancing is new to me. Can I proceed without a solicitor easily? I think we can but we keep being told I should use one. Any advice?

It is not advisable to proceed with a house purchase without a solicitor. The council's solicitor are not acting for you. You need a solicitor for a number reasons. One of which is to verify what plans the Council have for repairs and refurbishment for the next five years. Many leaseholders have been stung for contributions of thousands of pounds. In any event, if you are getting a mortgage with Barclays, you will need to appoint a solicitor on the Barclays conveyancing panel.

I had an offer accepted on an apartment in Hermon on 16/6/2025, valuation was booked 2 days later, all came back fine. Property lawyer appointed, so all that was missing was my mortgage offer. Having made daily calls to RBS and chasing them on my offer, I have now been told that my offer will not be issued unless the lawyer is on the RBS conveyancing panel. Can the lender hold off the offer?

A lender would not issue an offer until they have details of a lawyer on their panel. It can take a few weeks for RBS to deal with your lawyer's application to be on the RBS conveyancing panel. There's no guarantee that your solicitor will be accepted.

I am buying my first flat in Hermon with a loan from Lloyds TSB Bank. The builders would not move on the amount so I negotiated five thousand pounds worth of fixtures and fittings instead.

All lenders require a Disclosure of Incentives Form from the builder of any new build, converted or renovated property, It is available online from the Lenders’ Handbook page on the CML website. CML form is completed and handed to the lender's surveyor when the inspection is done.

Lenders have different policies on incentives. Some accept none at all, cash or physical, while others will accept cash incentives up to 5%.

Hard to understand why the representative of a builder would be suggesting you withold information from a solicitor when all this will be clearly visible on forms the builder has to supply to its solicitor, the buyer's solicitor and the surveyor.

We're FTB’s - agreed a price, yet the agent informed us that the seller will only issue a contract if we use the agent's recommended lawyers as they want an ‘expedited deal’. Our preferred option is to instruct a local solicitor who is familiar with conveyancing in Hermon

It is improbable the vendors are behind this. Should the vendor desire ‘a quick sale', taking such a hostile approach to a genuine purchaser is is going to put the whole deal at risk. Contact the owners directly and explain that (a)you are serious purchasers (b)you are ready to progress, with finances arranged © you are chain free (d) you wish to move quickly (e)however you will continue to instruct your preferred Hermon conveyancing solicitors - as opposed tothe ones that will give their estate agent a introducer fee or hit his conveyancing figures set by HQ.
