Yes, you can choose a solicitors' firm to advise you on the mortgage.

However, if you would like the same firm of solicitors to act for both you and the Bank, the firm you have chosen must be agreed by the Bank, otherwise they will not be able to act for the Bank as well, and we will need to appoint another firm of solicitors to act for the Bank.

Please also note that you need to bear the legal cost for the mortgage transaction. If there are two different firms of solicitors acting for you and for the Bank, you will need to bear the legal costs of both firms of solicitors. Each firm may charge extra fees for the additional work in reviewing the other firm’s documentation and accordingly, the legal cost for such arrangement may be higher than using just one firm of solicitors agreed by the Bank to represent both parties.

No fee is charged when you apply for a mortgage loan. However, if you have accepted our offer and do not draw down the loan within the period stated in the offer letter, we will charge a cancellation fee of 0.15% of the loan amount.

If you are using an HIBOR plan, your next repayment amount is calculated based on the HIBOR rate or the latest BLR loan cap rate available on your repayment day of current month. If an updated HIBOR rate is not available (due to weekends, public holidays, severe weather or more) on the repayment day, we'll adopt the previous repayment amount and apply the next available HIBOR rate or the latest BLR loan cap rate for interest calculations.

Any difference goes directly to your loan principal, leading to a larger proportion to your principal repayment, and there is no additional cost.
