Finally the sale completed on my house in Brecon last August yet the purchaser is Skype messaging every few hours to moan that her solicitor needs to hear from mine. What should have happened following completion?
Following your house sale your conveyancer should deliver the transfer deeds and all supplemental paperwork to the purchaser's solicitors. Where relevant, your lawyer should also evidence that the legal charge in favour of the lender has been redeemed to the purchasers solicitors. There is unlikely to be post completion requirements specific conveyancing in Brecon.
We are selling our apartment in Brecon. Does my solicitor need to be required to be on the Aldermore conveyancing panel in order to deal with redeeming my mortgage?
Ordinarily, even if your lawyer is not on the Aldermore conveyancing panel they can still act for you on your sale. It might be that the lender will not release the original deeds (if applicable and increasingly irrelevant) until after the mortgage is paid off. You should speak to your lawyer directly before you start the process though to ensure that there is no problem as lenders are changing their conditions fairly frequently in recent years.
My wife and I are close to exchanging contracts on the sale of our house in Brecon and according to the buyers it appears that there is a possibility that the property was constructed land that was not decontaminated. Any high street Brecon conveyancer would know that there is no such problem. For the life of me I don't know why the buyers are using a factory type conveyancing outfit rather than a conveyancing solicitor in Brecon. We have lived in Brecon for six years we know of no issue. Do we get in touch with our local Authority to seek confirmation that there is no issue.
It sounds as though you may have a conveyancing solicitor currently acting for you. What do they say? You need to check with your lawyer before you do anything. It is very possible that once the local authority has been informed of a potential issue it cannot be insured against (a bit like being diagnosed with a serious illness and then taking out life insurance to cover that same ailment)
It has been 4 months since my purchase conveyancing in Brecon completed. I have checked the Land Registry website which shows that I paid £175,000 when infact I paid £180,000. Why the discrepancy?
The price paid figure is taken from the application to register the purchase. It is the figure included in the Transfer (the legal deed which transfers the residence from one person to the other) and referred to as the 'consideration' or purchase price. You can report an error in the price paid figure using the LR online form. In most cases errors result from typos so at first glance the figure. Do report it so they can double check and advise.
