We are getting the release of further funds on our home loan from Coventry BS as we intend to carry out a loft conversion to our home in Prestbury. Do we need to choose a bricks and mortar Prestbury solicitor on the Coventry BS conveyancing panel to handle the legals?

Intending to buy a apartment in Prestbury. I have received an online quote from a licenced conveyancer, which states: "There will be no charge for dealing with the Lender if you are obtaining a mortgage".

I wanted to make sure it means there will be no additional fees for dealing with the mortgage.
They are simply saying that the cost for acting for the lender is included in the fee being quoted. It is worth you checking that the Prestbury conveyancing practitioner is on the Santander conveyancing panel.
Should our solicitor be making enquiries concerning flooding as part of the conveyancing in Prestbury.
The risk of flooding is if increasing concern for lawyers dealing with homes in Prestbury. Some people will buy a property in Prestbury, completely aware that at some time, it may suffer from flooding. However, aside from the physical damage, if a property is at risk of flooding, it may be difficult to obtain a mortgage, adequate building insurance, or dispose of the property. There are steps that can be taken during the course of a property purchase to forewarn the buyer.
Solicitors are not best placed to give advice on flood risk, but there are a number of searches that may be undertaken by the purchaser or on a buyer’s behalf which should give them a better understanding of the risks in Prestbury. The conventional set of property information forms sent to a buyer’s lawyer (where the Conveyancing Protocol is adopted) includes a standard inquiry of the vendor to find out if the premises has historically flooded. In the event that the residence has been flooded in past and is not notified by the owner, then a buyer could bring a claim for damages resulting from an inaccurate reply. The buyer’s lawyers will also carry out an enviro search. This will disclose if there is a recorded flood risk. If so, additional investigations should be made.
Yesterday I discovered that there is a flying freehold element on a property I put an offer in a fortnight ago in what was supposed to be a simple, chain free conveyancing. Prestbury is where the house is located. Can you shed any light on this issue?
Flying freeholds in Prestbury are not the norm but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even though you don't necessarily need a conveyancing solicitor in Prestbury you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds very carefully. Your bank may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy.

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 property.
