We previously chose conveyancing lawyers with offices in Maidenhead on the Bank of Ireland solicitor approved list. They are now charging me an additional sum for handling the Bank of Ireland mortgage. Is this an additional conveyancing fee specified by Bank of Ireland?
Unfortunately, as long as it is in their Terms and Conditions or Quote then yes your lawyer is entitled to charge a fee for this. This fee is not dictated by Bank of Ireland but by your Maidenhead property lawyer. Numerous firms on the Bank of Ireland panel will quote ’dealing with mortgage’ fee but many firms include it on their overall fee.
I am looking for a leasehold apartment up to £245,000 and found one round the corner in Maidenhead I like with amenity areas and railway links nearby, the downside is that it's only got 49 remaining years left on the lease. There is not much else in Maidenhead suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake buying a short lease?
If you need a home loan the remaining unexpired lease term will be a potential deal breaker. Discount the price by the anticipated lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the existing owner has owned the premises for at least twenty four months you may ask them to commence the lease extension formalities and then assign it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the current lease with a zero ground rent applied. You should consult your conveyancing lawyer concerning this.
