Should my conveyancer be making enquiries concerning flooding as part of the conveyancing in Brecon.

The risk of flooding is if increasing concern for lawyers specialising in conveyancing in Brecon. There are those who buy a property in Brecon, completely aware that at some time, it may be flooded. However, leaving to one side the physical destruction, where a house is at risk of flooding, it may be difficult to get a mortgage, adequate insurance cover, or dispose of the premises. Steps can be carried out as part of the conveyancing process to forewarn the purchaser.

Lawyers are not qualified to impart advice on flood risk, but there are a various searches that may be carried out by the purchaser or on a buyer’s behalf which will figure out the risks in Brecon. The standard information supplied to a buyer’s solicitor (where the solicitors are adopting what is known as the Conveyancing Protocol) includes a standard question of the seller to determine whether the premises has ever been flooded. In the event that the premises has been flooded in past which is not revealed by the owner, then a buyer could issue a legal claim for losses stemming from an inaccurate reply. The buyer’s lawyers may also carry out an environmental search. This will reveal whether there is a recorded flood risk. If so, more detailed inquiries should be carried out.

I have todaybecome aware that Wolstenholmes have closed. They conducted my conveyancing in Brecon for a purchase of a leasehold apartment 12 months ago. How can I check that my home is in my name in the name of the previous owner?

How does conveyancing in Brecon differ for newly converted properties?

Most buyers of new build residence in Brecon contact us having been asked by the developer to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the residence is constructed. This is because developers in Brecon typically acquire the real estate, 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 property lawyers 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 Brecon or who has acted in the same development.

Yesterday I discovered that there is a flying freehold issue on a property I put an offer in two weeks back in what should have been a quick, no chain conveyancing. Brecon is the location of the property. Is there any advice you can give?

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

Do I need to be suspicious about estate agents that I am dealing with are encouraging me to use a nationwide conveyancing firm as opposed to a High Street Brecon conveyancing firm?

As is the case with lots of professional services, often referrals from connections can be extremely useful or valuable. Yet there are lots of players in a conveyancing matter; estate agents, mortgage brokers and lenders may suggest lawyers to choose. On occasion the conveyancers might be known to one of the organisations as experts in their field, but occasionally there is an underlying commercial relationship behind the recommendation. You have the right to choose your own conveyancer. However, bear in mind that the majority of banks specify a panel list of conveyancers you are obliged to use for the mortgage aspect of your home move.
