We had chosen conveyancers located in Bardsley on the TSB solicitor panel. They are now charging me a supplemental sum for dealing with the TSB mortgage. Is this an additional conveyancing fee specified by TSB?
As unfair as it may seem, as long as it’s in their Terms of Engagement or Quote then yes your solicitor is entitled to charge a fee for this. The fee is not set by TSB but by your Bardsley lawyer. Numerous firms on the TSB panel will charge ’dealing with mortgage’ fee but many firms incorporate it on their overall fee.
I had an offer accepted on a house in Bardsley on 4/7/2025, valuation was booked 4 days after, all came back fine. Conveyancer retained, so the only thing outstanding was my mortgage offer. Having made daily calls to Barclays and chasing them on my offer, I have now been told that my offer will not be issued unless the lawyer is on the Barclays conveyancing panel. Are Barclays entitled to hold back the Mortgage pending the lawyer being on the approved list?
Mortgage companies tend not to not issue an offer until they have details of a lawyer on their panel. It can take a few weeks for Barclays to deal with your lawyer's application to be on the Barclays conveyancing panel. There's no guarantee that your solicitor will be accepted.
I am looking into buying my first house which is in Bardsley and I am already nervous. I couldn't find anything specific about Bardsley. Conveyancing will be needed in due course but do you know about the Bardsley area? or perhaps some other tips you can share?
Rather than looking online forget looking online you should go and have a look at Bardsley. In the meantime here are some basic statistics that we found
My husband and I are first time buyers - agreed a price, but the property agent advised that the owners will only proceed if we use their chosen conveyancers as they want a ‘quick sale’. My instinct tells me that we should use a high street solicitor accustomed to conveyancing in Bardsley
We suspect that the seller is not behind this demand. If they desire ‘a quick sale', taking such a hostile approach to a motivated purchaser is going to damage their objectives. Speak to the vendors direct and make sure they understand (a)you are serious buyers (b)you are excited to move forward, with finances arranged © you do not need to sell (d) you wish to move quickly (e)but you intend to use your preferred Bardsley conveyancing solicitors - not the ones that will provide their estate agent a kickback or hit his conveyancing figures set by head office.
