Avoiding legal fees?
Good evening all,
I'm having a nightmare with Santander currently. I'm attempting to do a change of borrower (simply remove someone from the mortgage), I have had the offer approved by the Bank but they won't action it without me paying a lawyer to do the paperwork ... I've spoken to the Lang Registry and downloaded all the forms I need: - AP1 (to amend the register) - TR1 (to transfer the ownership) - 2 x ID1 (as we are private individuals to prove our ID) - RX3 (as we are tenents in common and I need to remove his charge) The fees for the above are £50 however if I have to pay a lawyer it's going to cost 4-6 times this amount. Has anyone had any experience with either Santander change of borrower or simple DIY change of borrower processes? Thanks in advance

Re: Avoiding legal fees?
Mortgage lenders always insist a solicitor is instructed to protect their interests so you will have to pay the fees I'm afraid..
