What happens if my lawyer’s firm is expelled from the Yorkshire BS Solicitor panel ahead of completing my conveyancing in Bargoed?
First, this is very unlikely to happen. In most cases even where a law firm is removed off of a panel the lender would allow the completion to go ahead as the lender would appreciate the difficulties that they would place you in if you have to instruct a new solicitor days before completion. In a worst case scenario where the lender insists that you instruct a new firm then it is possible for a very good lawyer to expedite the conveyancing albeit that you may pay a significant premium for this. The analogous situation is where a buyer instructs a lawyer, exchanges contracts and the law firm is shut down by a regulator such as the SRA. Again, in this situation you can find lawyers who can troubleshoot their way to bring the conveyancing to a satisfactory conclusion - albeit at a cost.

These searches are not carried out for residential conveyancing in Bargoed.
Are there restrictive covenants that are commonly identified as part of conveyancing in Bargoed?
Restrictive covenants can be picked up when reviewing land registry title as part of the process of conveyancing in Bargoed.

Yesterday I discovered that there is a flying freehold element on a house I put an offer in two weeks back in what was supposed to be a simple, no chain conveyancing. Bargoed is where the house is located. Can you shed any light on this issue?
Flying freeholds in Bargoed are rare but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Bargoed you would need to get your solicitor to go through the deeds diligently. Your mortgage company may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Bargoed may decide that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold residence.
We are 18 days into a residential purchase having been referred to a firm by the local agent to handle our conveyancing in Bargoed. I am not happy. Can you help me find new conveyancers?
A conveyancer would need to be very poor in order to consider changing them. Has your loan offer been issued? In the event that it has you must make them aware of the new contact details and ensure the loan are re-sent. Your new conveyancer should be on the mortgage company panel to avoid added costs and delays. So that should be your first question of the new lawyers.

Having had my offer accepted I require leasehold conveyancing in Bargoed. Before I get started I require certainty as to the unexpired term of the lease.
If the lease is registered - and almost all are in Bargoed - then the leasehold title will always include the short particulars of the lease, namely the date; the term; and the original parties. From a conveyancing perspective such details then enable any prospective buyer and lender to confirm that any lease they are looking at is the one relevant to that title. For any other purpose, such as confirming how long the term was granted for and calculating what is left, then the register should be sufficient on it's own.
