Some lenders take longer than others. Have TSB done the survey? Have you advised TSB as to your lawyers' details and checked that your lawyers are on the TSB conveyancing panel? Sometimes it can take as long as six weeks for a mortgage offer to be issued.

I am using a search engine for the term conveyancing in Upper Norwood it shows results of numerous property lawyersin the vicinity. How do I determine which is the suitable property lawyer for my move?

Estate agents have just been given the go-ahead to market my basement flat in Upper Norwood. Conveyancing is yet to be initiated, however I have recently received a yearly service charge demand – what should I do?

The sensible thing to do is clear the maintenance contribution as usual given that all ground rent and service charges will be apportioned as part of the financial calculations for completion monies, so you should recover the relevant percentage by the purchaser for the period running from after the completion date to the subsequent invoice date. Most managing agents will not acknowledge the buyer unless the service charges have been paid and are up to date, so it is important for both buyer and seller for the seller to show that they are up to date. This will smooth the conveyancing process.
