My husband and I are in the process of viewing houses in Yeovil and I am about to put in an offer. Should I already have a conveyancer in place at this point? I am planning to take a home loan with Clydesdale.
It would be prudent to start your search sooner rather than later. Once you decide who you want to use and once your offer is accepted you can instruct them to work for you and forward their contact information on to the selling agent. As you are seeking a mortgage with Clydesdale, make sure you remember to check that your lawyer is on the Clydesdale conveyancing panel.
Intending to buy a maisonette in Yeovil. 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 take this to mean that there will be no additional fee if the solicitor is on the Nationwide conveyancing panel. 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 Yeovil conveyancer is on the Nationwide conveyancing panel.
Our sealed bid on a detached house in Yeovil has been agreed to, the vendors do however have a tied purchase. The vendors have put an offer on a flat, however it’s not yet agreed to, and have viewings of other flats booked. I have chosen a local conveyancing solicitor in Yeovil. What do I do now? When should I get the mortgage application with Coventry BS started?
It is understandable to have apprehensions where there is a chain as you are unlikely to want to incur expenses prematurely (home loan application is approx £1k, then valuation, Yeovil conveyancing search charges, etc). First, you should ensure that your conveyancer is on the Coventry BS approved list. Concerning the subsequent steps this very much dictated by the circumstances of your transaction, motivation for the property and on the state of the market. During a rising market many purchasers would apply for a home loan with Coventry BS and pay for the valuation and only if it was satisfactory would they request their solicitor to proceed with the conveyancing in Yeovil.

On the basis that you meet the appropriate requirements, under the Leasehold Reform, Housing and Urban Development Act 1993 you can submit an application to the County Court for an order to dispense with the service of the initial notice. This will enable the lease to be granted an extra 90 years by the Court. You will be obliged to demonstrate that you or your lawyers have used your best endeavours to track down the freeholder. On the whole an enquiry agent would be useful to try and locate and to produce a report which can be accepted by the court as evidence that the landlord is indeed missing. It is wise to seek advice from a solicitor in relation to investigating the landlord’s absence and the application to the County Court overseeing Yeovil.
