Our solicitor has identified a a legal deficiency with the lease for the apartment we are buying in Whitton. The seller’s lawyers have suggested defective title insurance as a workaround. We are content with insurance and will cover the costs. Our conveyancing practitioner has advised that he must be satisfied that the mortgage company is happy with this solution. Are we the client or is the mortgage company ?
The short answer to your last question is that, notwithstanding the risk of a conflict of interest, you and the mortgage company are the client. Your lawyer must comply with the UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook requirements. The UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook conditions require your lawyer to disclose issues such as defects with the lease so that the bank can be afforded the opportunity to check with their valuer as to the extent that the value of the property is affected. Should you refuse to allow your lawyer to make the appropriate notification then your lawyer will have no choice but to discontinue acting for you.

I am due to exchange contracts on my flat. I had a double glazing fitted in May 2010, but did not receive a FENSA certificate or Building Regulation Certificate. My buyer's mortgage company, Leeds Building Society are being pedantic. The Whitton solicitor who is on the Leeds Building Society conveyancing panel is recommending indemnity insurance as a solution but Leeds Building Society are insisting on a building regulation certificate. Why do Leeds Building Society have a conveyancing panel if they don't accept advice from them?
It is probably the case that Leeds Building Society have referred the matter to their valuer. The reason why Leeds Building Society may not want to accept indemnity insurance is because it does not give them any reassurance that the double glazing was correctly and safely installed. The indemnity insurance merely protects against enforcement action which is very unlikely anyway.
RBS have agreed my mortgage in principle, my offer on a flat in Whitton has been accepted, now what?
The property agent will need to be advised as to your solicitor's details (ensure that the lawyers are on the bank’s approved list). Contact RBS or your broker and finish off any relevant paperwork. RBS will sellect a valuer who will get in touch with the estate agent or seller to schedule a slot for the valuation to occur. Once conducted (assuming no problems) it takes approximately ten days for the mortgage offer to be issued. RBS will send the offer to you and your conveyancers. The transaction will then take it’s course according the nature and complexity of the conveyancing in Whitton.
My husband and I are 18 days into a leasehold purchase having been directed to conveyancers by the estate agent to execute conveyancing in Whitton. I am am very dissatisfied with the quality of service. Can you help me find new lawyers?
