I am in the throes of changing my existing standard mortgage to a BTL National Westminster Bank mortgage. The bank has said that I need a solicitor as part of the process.

The pricing estimate e-mailed to me of £470 has shocked me as its a refinance than a sale or purchase.
The estimate does seem a tad overpriced. If you shop around you could reduce the fees slightly by perhaps £125.

Yesterday I discovered that there is a flying freehold issue on a property I have offered on a fortnight ago in what was supposed to be a straight forward, chain free conveyancing. Temple Fortune is where the house is located. Can you shed any light on this issue?
Flying freeholds in Temple Fortune are rare but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Temple Fortune you would need to get your solicitor to go through the deeds thoroughly. Your mortgage company may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Temple Fortune may decide 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.
