Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Queenborough

Me and my fiance are planning to acquire a 2 bedroom apartment in Queenborough with a mortgage. We would like to retain our Queenborough solicitor, however the bank advise he's not on their "panel". It appears that we have no choice but to select one of the bank panel solicitors or keep our Queenborough lawyer and pay for one of their panel lawyers to act for them. We consider that this is unjust; is there anything we can do?

Unfortunately,no. The mortgage offered to you is subject to its terms and conditions, one of which will be that lawyers will on the bank’s conveyancing panel. Until recently, most lenders had large numbers of law firms on their panels: a borrower could choose one for themselves, as long as it was on the lender's panel. The lender would then simply instruct the borrower's lawyers to act for the lender, too. You can use your lender's panel lawyers or you could borrow from another lender which does not restrict your choice. Another option that might be available is for your Queenborough conveyancing lawyer to apply to be on the conveyancing panel.

We were just about to sign contracts for a ground floor flat in Queenborough. We have hit a problem. The loan offer with Alliance & Leicester runs out on 8/4/2026 but the sellers are putting forward a completion date of 10/4/2026. Can one extend the mortgage offer?

The person best placed to address this issue is your conveyancer who is in a position to calculate if they better off negotiating with the bank, owner’s representatives, property agents or possibly all parties taking into account what has happend in your transaction to date.

I'm purchasing a new build house in Queenborough with a loan from National Westminster Bank. The builders would not budge the amount so I negotiated £7000 of additionals instead. The estate agent told me not inform my lawyer about this side-deal as it would jeopardize my mortgage with the lender. Is this normal?.

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.

I decided to have a survey done on a house in Queenborough before instructing lawyers. I have been advised that there is a flying freehold element to the property. Our surveyor advised that some lenders tend not issue a mortgage on a flying freehold house.

If you lender is happy to lend one our lawyers can assist as they are used to dealing with flying freeholds in Queenborough.
