Please help - my lawyer says that lack of planning permission insurance is needed on my purchase. What is the level of cover for Bassaleg conveyancing?
The right level of lack of planning permission indemnity insurance depends on who your lender is. It would differ for example between Lloyds TSB Bank and Virgin Money. Conveyancing practitioners as opposed to borrowers take out such insurances.
I am expecting a AIP from Co-operative this week so we can work out what to offer on a property we like as otherwise we only have online calculators to go by (which aren't taking into account credit checks etc). Do Co-operative recommend any Bassaleg solicitors on the Co-operative conveyancing panel, or is it better to go independently?
You will need to appoint Bassaleg solicitors independently although you'll need to choose one on the Co-operative conveyancing panel. The solicitor represents both you and Co-operative through the process.
My wife and I are in the throws of viewing houses in Bassaleg and I am now considering a potential offer. Is it too early to have a solicitor in place? I intend to finance via a home loan with Santander.
You should start obtaining conveyancing quotes from solicitors ASAP. After you have chosen your lawyer and once your offer is accepted you can instruct them to work for you and pass their contact information on to the estate agent. As you are obtaining a mortgage with Santander, ask your prospective lawyers if they are on the Santander conveyancing panel otherwise they can't do the mortgage legal work.

I am purchasing my first flat in Bassaleg with a mortgage from Nottingham Building Society. The builders refused to budge the amount so I negotiated five thousand pounds worth of additionals instead. The estate agent told me not reveal to my lawyer about the deal as it could adversely affect my mortgage with Nottingham Building Society. Is this normal?.
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.
I am looking for a flat up to £245,000 and found one near me in Bassaleg I like with open areas and station in the vicinity, however it's only got 51 remaining years left on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Bassaleg in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error buying a short lease?
Should you need a home loan the shortness of the lease may be an issue. Reduce the price 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 twenty four months you can ask them to commence the lease extension formalities and then assign it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the existing lease with a zero ground rent applied. You should consult your conveyancing lawyer regarding this matter.
Been on the hunt for a solicitor for freehold sale conveyancing in Bassaleg. I'm selling, simple no mortgage to pay off, no hurry, currently vacant. Had an estimate from a property lawyer for £900 excluding VAT which is a tad expensive given that its so straightforward. Is it possible to find less expensive fees for conveyancing in Bassaleg?
Given that it’s a sale only, £500 + VAT should be about the lowest for a Bassaleg solicitor firm.
