Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Abertillery

We decided to go with a Abertillery based solicitor for my conveyancing in Abertillery last week. Going through the Terms and Conditions I seewe are on the hook for fees even if the dealfalls through. Would I be best advised to appoint an internet lawyer promoting no-sale-no-fee conveyancing in Abertillery?

Generally there is a compromise along the lines that if "No Sale No Fee" is offered then the fee levels will tend to be be uplifted to cover those cases that do not proceed. You should be mindful that such offerings rarely protect you from expenditure such as Abertillery conveyancing search expenses.

It is is a decade since I acquired my property in Abertillery. Conveyancing solicitors have just been instructed on the sale but I am unable to track down my title documents. Will this cause complications?

You need not be too concerned. Firstly there is a chance that the deeds will be with your lender or they could stored with the lawyers who acted in the purchase. Secondly in most cases the title will be registered at the land registry and you will be able to prove you are the registered owner by your conveyancing lawyers acquiring up to date copy of the land registers. The vast majority of conveyancing in Abertillery relates to registered property but in the rare situation where your property is unregistered it adds to the complexity but is resolvable.

Should commercial conveyancing searches disclose impending roadworks that could affect a commercial site in Abertillery?

Its becoming the norm that commercial conveyancing solicitors in Abertillery will carry out a SiteSolutions Highways report as it reduces the time that conveyancers expend in researching accurate data on highways that impact buildings and development assets in Abertillery. The search result provides definitive information on the adoption status of roads, footpaths and verges, as well as the implication of traffic schemes and the rights of way surrounding a commercial development sites in Abertillery.

For each commercial conveyancing transaction in Abertillery it is critical to investigate the adoption status of roads surrounding a site. The absence of identifying developments where adoption procedures have not been dealt with adequately could cause delays to Abertillery commercial conveyancing transactions as well as present a risk to future intentions for the site. These searches are not carried out for domestic conveyancing in Abertillery.

My wife and I own a 4 bedroom Georgian house in Abertillery. Conveyancing practitioner represented me and Barclays . I did a free Land Registry search last week and I saw a couple of entries: the first freehold, another for leasehold with the exact same property. I thought I was buying a freehold how can I check?

You should read the Freehold register you have again and check the Charges Register as there may be mention of a lease. The best way to be sure that you are also the registered owner of the leasehold and freehold title as well is to check (£3). It is not completely unheard of in Abertillery and other locations in 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 lenders. You can also question the position with the conveyancing lawyer who completed the work.

Just had an offer accepted on a new build apartment in Abertillery. Conveyancing is necessary evil at the best of times but I have never purchased a new build flat before. What sort of enquires would be asked in new build conveyancing.

Set out below are examples of a few leasehold new build enquiries that you may expect your new-build leasehold conveyancing in Abertillery

    Please confirm the Lease plans are architect prepared. Has the Lease plan been approved by the Land Registry and if not when will they be lodged for this purpose? The Lease must contain a provision on behalf of the Vendor to pay the service charges in respect of unoccupied units in order to ensure that all services can be provided. Will control of the Management Company (if any) be handed over to purchasers on completion of the last sale or earlier? Forfeiture - bankruptcy or liquidation must not apply under this provision.

I am looking for a leasehold apartment up to £245,000 and identified one close by in Abertillery I like with amenity areas and railway links in the vicinity, however it only has 51 years on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Abertillery suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake acquiring a short lease?

If you require a mortgage that many years will be an issue. Discount the offer by the amount the lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the current owner has owned the premises for at least 2 years you may request that they start the process of the extension and then assign it to you. You can add 90 years to the existing lease with a zero ground rent applied. You should speak to your conveyancing lawyer regarding this.
