We previously instructed conveyancers based in Mansfield Woodhouse on the Bank of Ireland solicitor panel. They are now charging me a further fee for dealing with the Bank of Ireland mortgage. Is this a supplemental conveyancing fee specified by Bank of Ireland?
As unfair as it may seem, as long as it’s in their Terms of Engagement or estimate then yes your solicitor may levy a fee for this. The fee is not dictated by Bank of Ireland but by your Mansfield Woodhouse conveyancer. Numerous firms on the Bank of Ireland panel will charge ’dealing with mortgage’ fee but some firms include it on their overall fee.
Planning on purchasing a house in Mansfield Woodhouse. I have received an online quote from a licenced conveyancer, which states: "There will be no charge for dealing with the Lender if you are obtaining a mortgage". I take this to mean that there will be no additional fee if the solicitor is on the Santander conveyancing panel. 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 Mansfield Woodhouse conveyancer is on the Santander conveyancing panel.
I had an offer accepted on a property in Mansfield Woodhouse on 13/2/2026, valuation was booked 4 days after, all came back fine. Conveyancer retained, so the only thing outstanding was my mortgage offer. Having made daily calls to Yorkshire BS and chasing them on my offer, I have now been told that my offer will not be issued unless the lawyer is on the Yorkshire BS conveyancing panel. Are Yorkshire BS entitled to hold back the Mortgage pending the lawyer being on the approved list?
Mortgage companies tend not to not issue a mortgage until they have details of a lawyer on their panel. It can take a few weeks for Yorkshire BS to deal with your lawyer's application to be on the Yorkshire BS conveyancing panel. There's no guarantee that your solicitor will be accepted.
My wife and I are intent on selling our property in Mansfield Woodhouse and the buyers lawyers are claiming that there is a possibility that the property was constructed land that was not decontaminated. A high street Mansfield Woodhouse conveyancer would know this is not the case. For the life of me I don't know why the purchasers used a nationwide conveyancing firm as opposed to a conveyancing solicitor in Mansfield Woodhouse. We have lived in Mansfield Woodhouse for three years we know of no issue. Do we get in touch with our local Authority to obtain confirmation that there is no issue.
It sounds as though you may have a conveyancing lawyer currently acting for you. Are they able to advise? You need to enquire of your lawyer before you do anything. It is very possible that once the local authority has been informed of a potential issue it cannot be insured against (a bit like being diagnosed with a serious illness and then taking out life insurance to cover that same illness)
Are there restrictive covenants that are commonly picked up as part of conveyancing in Mansfield Woodhouse?

Yesterday I discovered that there is a flying freehold element on a property I have offered on a fortnight ago in what should have been a simple, no chain conveyancing. Mansfield Woodhouse is where the house is located. What do you suggest?
Flying freeholds in Mansfield Woodhouse are not the norm but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Mansfield Woodhouse you would need to get your solicitor to go through the deeds diligently. Your mortgage company may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Mansfield Woodhouse may ascertain that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold premises.
