I have just started taking steps with the aim of swapping over from my existing standard home loan to a Buy to Let Godiva Mortgages Ltd mortgage. The bank has said that I need a conveyancer for this. I had a chat my past Aberaeron conveyancing solicitor who who did the conveyancing when I initially acquired the property. The costs illustration sent of £550 is an eye-watering amount to do this as its a remortgage than a sale or purchase.

I have given 8 weeks notice to my existing landlord and must leave my let out flat in Aberaeron by the end of next month. Conveyancing for my house purchase is underway. Is it possible to complete in 4 weeks as I wish to avoid having to move into temporary accommodation?
It is unwise to serve notice on a rental unless exchange of contracts has taken place. Assuming that you have not previously done so, speak to your solicitor and urge them to they apply pressure on the other lawyers, try to a target completion date that all parties will look to achieve
Having invested time scouring online forums for a high-quality solicitor in Aberaeron, most advise that I should use a CQS accredited solicitor. What is CQS?
The Law Society's Conveyancing Quality Scheme is the recognised kitemark for legal experts in buying or selling property, trusted by some of the UK's biggest mortgage companies. Four years ago the Conveyancing Quality Scheme was officially recognised by the Building Societies Association (BSA). The scheme does not cover licenced conveyancers. Aberaeron is one of the numerous areas in England and Wales where there are CQS lawyers.
three months have gone by since my purchase conveyancing in Aberaeron took place. I have checked the Land Registry site which shows that I paid £175,000 when infact I paid £160,000. Why the discrepancy?
The price paid figure is taken from the application to register the purchase. It is the figure included in the Transfer (the legal deed which transfers the residence from one person to the other) and referred to as the 'consideration' or purchase price. You can report an error in the price paid figure using the LR online form. In most cases errors result from typos so at first glance the figure. Do report it so they can double check and advise.
How does conveyancing in Aberaeron differ for new build properties?
Most buyers of new build property in Aberaeron contact us having been asked by the seller to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the property is built. This is because new home sellers in Aberaeron tend to acquire the land, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct conveyancers as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are accustomed to new build conveyancing in Aberaeron or who has acted in the same development.

Technically speaking you should not need to have the documents witnessed by a conveyancing solicitor. Ordinarily or notary public or qualified solicitor will do regardless of whether they are based in Aberaeron
