I am helping my mother sell her flat in Penmaenmawr. Does the conveyancing solicitor commission an energy assessment or it is for me to coordinate?
Following the demise of HIPs, EPC’s remained a mandatory part of selling a house. An EPC must be commissioned in advance of the property being marketed. It is not something that solicitors ordinarily organise.

We had chosen conveyancing lawyers with offices in Penmaenmawr on the Coventry BS solicitor approved list. They are now charging me a supplemental charge for dealing with the Coventry BS mortgage. Is this an additional conveyancing fee specified by Coventry BS?
Provided it is contained in their Terms of Engagement or estimate then yes your solicitor can charge a fee for this. This charge is not dictated by Coventry BS but by your Penmaenmawr conveyancer. Numerous firms on the Coventry BS panel will levy an ‘acting for lender’ fee but plenty of firms include it on their overall fee.
I am currently in the process of buying my council flat in Penmaenmawr. I have a mortgage offer with Coventry BS. Conveyancing is not something I have any knowledge of. Can I proceed without a solicitor easily? I think we can but we keep being told I should have one. Any advice?
It is not advisable to proceed with a house purchase without a solicitor. The council's solicitor are not acting for you. You need a solicitor for a number reasons. One of which is to verify what plans the Council have for repairs and refurbishment for the next five years. Many leaseholders have been stung for contributions of thousands of pounds. In any event, if you are getting a mortgage with Coventry BS, you will need to appoint a solicitor on the Coventry BS conveyancing panel.

Flying freeholds in Penmaenmawr are not the norm but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Penmaenmawr you would need to get your solicitor to go through the deeds diligently. Your mortgage company may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Penmaenmawr may determine that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. 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 residence.
