Last month we had a mortgage agreed in principle with Coventry BS. Newton Abbot conveyancing lawyers are instructed. What is the average time that one could expect to receive a mortgage offer from Coventry BS?
Some lenders take longer than others. Have Coventry BS done the valuation? Have you informed Coventry BS as to your lawyers' details and checked that your lawyers are on the Coventry BS conveyancing panel? Sometimes it can take as long as six weeks for a mortgage offer to be issued.
My offer was accepted on a house in Newton Abbot on 16/12/2024, valuation was booked 2 days after, all came back fine. Solicitor appointed, so all that was missing was my mortgage offer. Having made daily calls to Santander and chasing them on my offer, I have now been told that my offer will not be issued unless the lawyer is on the Santander conveyancing panel. Are Santander 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 Santander to deal with your lawyer's application to be on the Santander conveyancing panel. There's no guarantee that your solicitor will be accepted.
After what seems like an age I have had an offer on an apartment in Newton Abbot accepted, the sellers do nevertheless have an associated purchase. The owners have placed an offer on on an apartment, however it’s not yet agreed to, and are looking at other apartments booked. I have chosen a local conveyancing solicitor in Newton Abbot. What should be my next step? When should I get the mortgage application with Yorkshire BS started?
It is usual to have concerns where there is a chain as you are unlikely to want to incur expenses too early (mortgage application is in the region of £1k, then valuation, Newton Abbot conveyancing search costs, etc). The first thing to do is check that your property lawyer is on the Yorkshire BS conveyancing panel. Concerning the subsequent steps this very much depends on the uniqueness of your transaction, motivation for the property and on the state of the market. During a rising market many home buyers will apply for the mortgage with Yorkshire BS and pay for the valuation and only if it was satisfactory would they request their conveyancer to move forward with the conveyancing in Newton Abbot.

Over the last few months I have been searching for a leasehold apartment up to £235,500 and found one close by in Newton Abbot I like with a park and station in the vicinity, however it only has 61 remaining years left on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Newton Abbot suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake buying a short lease?
Should you require a home loan the shortness of the lease will likely be a potential deal breaker. Discount the offer by the expected lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the existing proprietor has owned the property for at least 2 years you may ask them to commence the lease extension formalities and pass it to you. You can add 90 years to the existing lease with a zero ground rent applied. You should consult your conveyancing solicitor about this.
I was advised by a number of estate agents in Newton Abbot to get a quote from a property lawyer on your site. What’s the financial inducement for Estate Agents to market your lawyers rather than another?
We refuse to make any financial incentive for sending work in our direction. We found it would be just too difficult to pay a commission because members of the public would think, ‘Why is the agent getting a kickback? Why aren’t I receiving any benefit too?’ We would prefer to grow our business on genuine recommendations.
