We had chosen conveyancing lawyers with offices in Tredegar on the TSB solicitor approved list. They are now charging me a separate amount for handling the TSB mortgage. Is this an additional conveyancing fee specified by TSB?
Unfortunately, as long as it is in their Terms and Conditions or estimate then yes your solicitor is entitled to charge a fee for this. This charge is not dictated by TSB but by your Tredegar conveyancing practitioner. Some firms on the TSB panel will levy ’dealing with mortgage’ fee and others do not.
It is unclear whether my lender requires a lease extension. I have telephoned my Tredegar building society branch on a couple of occasions and was told they are content with the situation and they will lend. My Tredegar conveyancing solicitor - who is on the mortgage company conveyancing panel- called and was told they will not lend based on their UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook minimum lease term requirements. Who do I believe?
Your conveyancing practitioner has to comply with the CML Handbook Part 2 provisions for your bank. Unless your lawyer obtains specific confirmation in writing that the bank will go ahead, your lawyer has no choice but to refrain from exchanging contract and committing you to the purchase. We would suggest that you ask the bank to contact your lawyer in writing confirming that they will accept the number of years remaining.

The only alternatives are the Head Lessor agreeing not to forfeit the Headlease or the Head Lessee guaranteeing to the Underlessees that it will not be in breach of the Headlease.
