Planning on purchasing a maisonette in Market Drayton. 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 Coventry BS 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 Market Drayton conveyancing practitioner is on the Coventry BS conveyancing panel.

I have finally had an offer on a flat in Market Drayton agreed to, but there is a chain. The vendors have put an offer on a property, however it’s not yet agreed to, and have viewings of other apartments in the pipeline. I have chosen a bricks and mortar conveyancing solicitor in Market Drayton. What do I do now? At what point should I apply for the mortgage with Co-operative?

It is usual to have apprehensions where there is a chain as you are unlikely to want to be too out of pocket prematurely (mortgage application is in the region of one thousand pounds, then valuation, Market Drayton conveyancing search fees, etc). The first course of action is to check that your conveyancer is on the Co-operative approved list. Concerning the next steps this very much depends on the uniqueness of your case, desire for this property and on the state of the market. In a buoyant market some purchasers will apply for the mortgage with Co-operative and arrange for the valuation and only if it comes back ok would they ask their conveyancing practitioner to press on with the conveyancing in Market Drayton.

No doubt it’s preferable to select a conveyancing practitioner is to seek recommendations from friends or relatives who have actually previously instructed the firm you're are thinking of instructing.

As a tenant I am on the hook for a maintenance fee for my flat in Market Drayton. Due to redundancy and personal issues I slipped into arrears with payments. I negotiated a settlement schedule but there is still about £2000 left in arrears.

I now wish to dispose of the property and I am worried this may hold me back if I have to pay off the arrears in advance. I'd like to sell up and subsequently pay them back with the completion monies - is this possible?

It would be wise to clarify with the conveyancing practitioner undertaking your Market Drayton conveyancing but it may be possible to arrange for the outstanding amount to be passed to the purchasers. The sale price payable would be adjusted to reflect the amount of debt they assume. They would then pay the outstanding monies after completion of the sale.
