My sealed bid on a house in Hedon has been agreed to, the owners do nevertheless have a tied purchase. The sellers have offered on somewhere, however it’s not yet agreed to, and are looking at other properties in the pipeline. I have instructed a bricks and mortar conveyancing solicitor in Hedon. What do I do now? At what point do I apply for the mortgage with Clydesdale?
It is understandable to have anxieties where there is a chain as you are unlikely to want to incur expenses too early (mortgage application is in the region of £1k, then valuation, Hedon conveyancing search charges, etc). The first thing to do is check that your property lawyer is on the Clydesdale conveyancing panel. As to the next steps this very much depends on the specifics of your case, attraction to the property and on the state of the market. During a rising market some buyers would apply for a home loan with Clydesdale and pay for the valuation and only if it comes back ok would they ask their conveyancing practitioner to move forward with the conveyancing in Hedon.
I used Stirling Law several years past for my conveyancing in Hedon. Now, I need my documents but cannot find the solicitor. What do I do?

I'm purchasing a new build house in Hedon with a loan from Godiva Mortgages Ltd. The sellers would not reduce the amount so I negotiated £7000 of extras instead. The house builders rep suggested that I not reveal to my conveyancer about the side-deal as it may put at risk my loan with the bank. Should I keep quiet?.
All lenders require a Disclosure of Incentives Form from the builder of any new build, converted or renovated property, It is available online from the Lenders’ Handbook page on the CML website. CML form is completed and handed to the lender's surveyor when the inspection is done.
Lenders have different policies on incentives. Some accept none at all, cash or physical, while others will accept cash incentives up to 5%.
Hard to understand why the representative of a builder would be suggesting you withold information from a solicitor when all this will be clearly visible on forms the builder has to supply to its solicitor, the buyer's solicitor and the surveyor.
I have noted on a number of online forums that when choosing a conveyancing lawyer they need approved by your bank. I am first time buyer with but I have an AIP from Birmingham Midhshires and I already have a local conveyancing solicitor in Hedon on standby. Can Santander insist on an approved solicitor to be selected? If so, where do I find that list for my conveyancing in Hedon?
You should use a solicitor that is on the Santander panel. Just telephone your preferred Hedon conveyancing solicitor to check if they are on the Santander panel. If they are not approved you have a couple of alternatives open to you here:
- Complete the purchase with your existing Hedon lawyer but Santander will undoubtedly use a property lawyer from their approved list. This will result in additional fees and potential interruption.
- Appoint a new conveyancing practitioner to act in the purchase, not forgetting to check that they are on the Santander conveyancing panel.
- Convince your solicitor to attempt to join the mortgage company panel.
