On the day of completion you can collect the keys from your estate agent but this should only occur after the previous owners conveyancers confirm to the agent that the monies to complete are in and the keys can be released.

After months of negotiation I have agreed a price on a house in Bassaleg. My mortgage broker recommended their conveyancers. I paid an advanced payment of £150. Not long after, the conveyancer contacted me embarrassingly acknowledging that they were not on the Yorkshire 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 Yorkshire 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.

About to purchase house in Bassaleg. I have received an online quote from a licenced conveyancer, which states: "There will be no charge for dealing with the Building Society if you are obtaining a mortgage". I take this to mean that there will be no additional fee if the solicitor is on the Barclays conveyancing panel. I wanted to make sure it means there will be no additional fees for dealing with the mortgage.

They are simply saying that the cost for acting for the lender is included in the fee being quoted. It is worth you checking that the Bassaleg conveyancing practitioner is on the Barclays conveyancing panel.

My wife and I purchased a terraced Victorian property in Bassaleg. Conveyancing lawyer represented me and Britannia. I happened to do a free search for it on the Land Registry database and there are two entries: the first freehold, another for leasehold with the matching address. I'd like to know for sure, how can I find out??

You need to 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 Bassaleg and other areas of the country and poses no real issues for owners other than when they sell they have to account for both freehold and leasehold interests when dealing with lenders. You can also question the position with your conveyancing lawyer who conducted the conveyancing.

How does conveyancing in Bassaleg differ for newly converted properties?

Most buyers of new build property in Bassaleg come to us having been asked by the builder to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the residence is completed. This is because house builders in Bassaleg typically acquire the land, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct conveyancing solicitors as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are accustomed to new build conveyancing in Bassaleg or who has acted in the same development.

I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold issue on a property I put an offer in last month in what should have been a simple, no chain conveyancing. Bassaleg is where the house is located. Can you offer any advice?

Flying freeholds in Bassaleg are unusual but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Bassaleg you would need to get your solicitor to go through the deeds very carefully. Your bank may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Bassaleg may ascertain 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.

Given that I am about to spend over three hundred thousand on a property in Bassaleg I wish to have a conversation with the solicitor concerning thehome move prior to appointing the firm. Is this something that you can arrange?

This is something that we encourage - we would be happy to talk to you we do not take any clients on without you speaking to the conveyancer due to be carrying out your property ownership legalities in Bassaleg.There is no ‘factory style conveyancing’ - every client is an important individual, not a case number. The practices that we put you in touch with believe that the fees you are provided with for your conveyancing in Bassaleg should be the amount on the final invoice that you end up paying.
