We had appointed conveyancing lawyers located in Willerby on the Skipton solicitor approved list. They have just invoiced me an additional amount for dealing with the Skipton mortgage. Is this an additional conveyancing fee set by Skipton?

Unfortunately, so long as it is in their Terms of Engagement or Quote then yes your solicitor is entitled to levy a fee for this. The fee is not dictated by Skipton but by your Willerby property lawyer. Plenty of firms on the Skipton panel will quote an ‘acting for lender’ fee and others do not.

We have a mortgage agreed in principle with Principality. Willerby conveyancing lawyers have been instructed. What is the average time that one could expect to receive a mortgage offer from Principality?

There is no definitive answer here. Have Principality done the survey? Have you advised Principality as to your lawyers' details and checked that your lawyers are on the Principality conveyancing panel? It is not unusual for a mortgage offer to take a month to come through.

I am expecting a AIP from Nationwide this week so we know how much we could potentially offer as otherwise we are dependent on web based calculators (which aren't taking into account credit checks etc). Do Nationwide recommend any Willerby solicitors on the Nationwide conveyancing panel, or is it better to go independently?

You will need to appoint Willerby solicitors independently although you'll need to choose one on the Nationwide conveyancing panel. The solicitor represents both you and Nationwide through the process.

I have been told that property searches are the number one cause of stalling in Willerby conveyancing transactions. Is that correct?

The Council of Property Search Organisations (CoPSO) published conclusions of research by MoveWithUs that conveyancing searches do not figure amongst the common causes of delays in the conveyancing process. Local searches are not likely to be the root cause of slowing down conveyancing in Willerby.

My husband and I are 14 days into a residential purchase having been directed to solicitors by the local agent to carry out the conveyancing in Willerby. We are not happy. Can you you assist me in finding new lawyers?

They would have to be very poor in order to consider replacing them. Has the mortgage offer been sent? If so you must inform them of the new conveyancer and ensure the offer are issued to the new lawyers. Your solicitor ideally needs to be on the mortgage company approved list to avoid escalating fees and delays. So that should be your starting point. The search tool can help you find a lender approved solicitor for your home move in Willerby
