Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Bargoed

I decided to go with a Bargoed based lawyer for my conveyancing in Bargoed yesterday. Upon checking the terms of engagement I notewe are responsible for fees even if the movedoes not happen. Should I go with them or choose a web based solicitor practice promising no completion no charge conveyancing in Bargoed?

Generally there is a concession along the lines that if "No Sale No Fee" is advertised then the fee levels will generally be higher to cover the cases that fail to complete. Do bear in mind that such offerings rarely protect you from expenses such as Bargoed conveyancing search charges.

Do the conveyancing lawyers to be found on your site carry out auction conveyancing in Bargoed?

There are a few auction practitioners we can connect you with those who can conduct auction conveyancing. Bargoed is just one of hundreds of areas of where our lawyers have offices.

I am assisting my step-mother sell her property in Bargoed. Does the conveyancer commission the energy performance certificate or it is for the seller to coordinate?

After the abolition of Home Information Packs, energy assessments was maintained a required element of moving house. An energy performance certificate needs to be commissioned before the property is advertised. It is not as aspect of the sale process that lawyers ordinarily organise. If you are instructing a Bargoed conveyancing solicitor they might be able to arrange energy performance certificates given their relationships with reputable Bargoed providers

The formalities of my purchase has taken place for my property in Bargoed. Conveyancing was satisfactory but I feel I should register my dissatisfaction about the lender. How does one go about formally complaining?

All banks and building societies have complaints procedures. Your first port of call should be one of the lender’s branches or the Customer Services Department at head office. We understand that complaints to a lender are sorted out very quickly. If you feel the matter is not resolved you can write to Financial Ombudsman Service who will take matters further.

It is unclear whether my bank requires a lease extension. I have called into my local Bargoed bank branch on numerous occasions and was told it does not affect the mortgage offer and they would lend. My Bargoed conveyancing solicitor - who is on the bank conveyancing panel- called and was told they will not lend based on their UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook minimum lease term requirements. I simply don't know who is right.

As long as the conveyancing practitioner is on the bank panel, they must comply with the CML Handbook provisions for the bank. Unless your lawyer obtains specific confirmation in writing that the mortgage company will go ahead, your lawyer has no choice but to refrain from exchanging contract and committing you to the purchase. We would suggest that you ask the mortgage company to contact your lawyer in writing confirming that they will accept the number of years remaining.

I moved into my house on 3 February and the transaction details is not yet on the land registry website. Need I be worried? My conveyancing solicitor in Bargoed said it should be concluded inside ten days. Are titles in Bargoed uniquely lengthy to register?

As far as conveyancing in Bargoed registration is no quicker or slower than the rest of the country. Rather than based on location, timescales can vary subject to the party submitting the application, whether it is in order and if the Land registry have to notify any interested parties. As of today approximately 80% of such applications are completed in less than three weeks but some can be subject to protracted hold-ups. Registration takes place after the new owner has moved in to the property therefore an expedited registration is not typically primary concern yet if there is a degree of urgency associated with the registration then you or your lawyers must speak with the land registry and explain the circumstances.

Due to the guidance of my in-laws I had a survey completed on a house in Bargoed prior to appointing conveyancers. I have been advised that there is a flying freehold element to the house. The surveyor has said that some lenders tend refuse to give a loan on a flying freehold home.

It depends who your proposed lender is. Bank of Scotland has different requirements from Nationwide. Should you wish to call us we can investigate further via the appropriate bank. If you lender is happy to lend one our lawyers can help as they are accustomed to dealing with flying freeholds in Bargoed. Conveyancing can be more complicated and therefore you should check with your conveyancing solicitor in Bargoed to see if the conveyancing will be more expensive.

I wish to rent out my leasehold flat in Bargoed. Conveyancing solicitor who did the purchase is retired - so can't ask her. Do I need to ask my freeholder for permission?

The lease dictates the relationship between the freeholder and you the flat owner; specifically, it will say if subletting is not allowed, or permitted but only subject to certain conditions. The accepted inference is that if the lease contains no expres ban or restriction, subletting is allowed. Most leases in Bargoed do not prevent subletting altogether – such a provision would undoubtedly devalue the property. In most cases there is simply a requirement that the owner notifies the freeholder, possibly sending a duplicate of the sublease.

I own a 2 bed flat in Bargoed, conveyancing having been completed 8 years ago. How much will my lease extension cost? Comparable properties in Bargoed with a long lease are worth £170,000. The ground rent is £50 invoiced annually. The lease ends on 21st October 2103

With just 78 years left to run we estimate the price of your lease extension to span between £7,600 and £8,800 plus costs.

The suggested premium range above a general guide to costs for extending a lease, but we are not able to supply a more accurate figure in the absence of detailed investigations. You should not use the figures in tribunal or court proceedings. There may be other issues that need to be taken into account and you obviously want to be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. Neither should you take any other action placing reliance on this information before seeking the advice of a professional.
