My bid for a property was accepted at auction in Abercarn. Conveyancing is necessary. What are my next steps?
Given that you have now exchanged you should choose a conveyancing lawyer soon as you will have a pending deadline in which to complete the transaction. Every auction property should have a bespoke legal set of papers. This will likely include the copy title deeds, local authority and drainage searches. Where you are dealing with leasehold property the legal pack should provide a copy of the lease, management information and a sellers leasehold information form and associated conveyancing documentation relating to leasehold premises. You should pass this on to the lawyer working for you at the earliest opportunity. You also need to ensure that you have funds in place to complete the transaction on the set completion date.
The formalities of my purchase has taken place for my property in Abercarn. Conveyancing was of an acceptable standard but I would like to complain about the lender. How does one go about formally complaining?
Most banks and building societies have complaints procedures. Your first point of contact should be one of the lender’s branches or the Customer Services Team at head office. We understand that complaints to a lender are resolved very quickly. If you feel the matter is not resolved you can write to Financial Ombudsman Service who will take matters further.
After much negotiation I have agreed a price on a house in Abercarn. My mortgage broker pressured me to appoint their conveyancing practitioner. I paid an on account payment of £225. A few days later, the conveyancer called me embarrassingly acknowledging that they were not on the Coventry BS conveyancing panel. Am I right in thinking that I should be due a refund?
You should be able to recover this from the law firm if they were not on the Coventry BS panel. They should have asked at the outset which lender you were obtaining a mortgage with. An important lesson to readers of this site is to check that the lawyers are on the appropriate lender panel.
My wife and I purchased a 4 bedroom Edwardian house in Abercarn. Conveyancing lawyer represented me and Accord Mortgages Ltd. I did a free Land Registry search last week and there are two entries: the first freehold, the second leasehold under the matching property. I'd like to know for sure, how can I find out??
You should review the Freehold register you have again and check the Charges Register for mention of a lease. The best way to be sure that you are also the registered proprietor of the leasehold and freehold title as well is to check (£3). It is not completely unheard of in Abercarn and other areas of the country and poses no real issues for owners other than when they mortgage they have to account for both freehold and leasehold interests when dealing with purchasers. You can also question the situation with the conveyancing practitioner who completed the work.
I am purchasing a new build house in Abercarn with a loan from Nationwide Building Society. The sellers refused to reduce the amount so I negotiated 6k of additionals instead.

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.
