I selected a local lawyer for our conveyancing in Brymbo recently. Upon checking the small print it is apparent thatwe are liable for charges even where the transaction does not complete. Should I ditch them and appoint a web based lawyer promoting no completion no charge conveyancing in Brymbo?
It is usually a trade off in that if "No Sale No Fee" is advertised then the fee levels will tend to be be uplifted to counteract those cases that do not proceed. Do bear in mind that these arrangements generally do not cover outlay for example Brymbo conveyancing search costs.
We are about to exchange buying a property in Brymbo but as a result of wreckage from the recent storms I have managed to agree reparation from the seller of £2k in the form of a deduction in the price. I had intended this to be addressed as part of the conveyancing process however Coventry BS are not allowing this. Why were they notified?
The conveyancer that is on a Coventry BS conveyancing panel is duty bound to disclose to Coventry BS of any amendments to the sale price. If you were to refuse your conveyancer to disclose the price change to Coventry BS then they would have to discontinue acting for you. In addition, Coventry BS and you would have to appoint a new lawyer for your conveyancing in Brymbo.
Can you explain why leasehold purchase conveyancing in Brymbo is more expensive?

My aunt passed away 10 months ago and as sole heir and executor I was left the property in Brymbo. The house had a relatively small loan left on it of around £5k. I want to transfer the title deeds into my name whilst I re-mortgage to Leeds Building Society, pay off the mortgage. Is this possible?
If you plan to re-mortgage then Leeds Building Society will insist on your using a conveyancer on the Leeds Building Society conveyancing panel. Here is link to the Land Registry online guidance around what to do when a property owner dies. This will help you to understand the registration process behind changing the details re the registered title. in your case it would appear that you are effectively purchasing the property from the estate. Your Leeds Building Society conveyancing panel solicitor pays the new mortgage money into the estate, the estate pays off the old mortgage, the charge is released and you become the owner and the Leeds Building Society mortgage is registered as a charge at the Land Registry.
I have been told that property searches are a common reason for stalling in Brymbo house deals. Is there any truth in this?
The Council of Property Search Organisations (CoPSO) released findings of research by MoveWithUs that conveyancing searches do not figure within the common causes of delays in the conveyancing process. Local searches are unlikely to feature in any holding up conveyancing in Brymbo.
Have purchased a a semi-detached house in Brymbo , What is the estimated time for the Land Registry to register the transfer to my name? My Brymbo conveyancing solicitor has been very slow, so I want to check that my purchase is recorded.
As far as conveyancing in Brymbo is concerned, registration is no quicker or slower than the rest of England and Wales. As opposed to being determined by geographic area, timescales can adjust subject to the party submitting the application, whether it is in order and if the Land registry communicate with any third persons or bodies. At present roughly 80% of submission are completed within two weeks but some can be subject to protracted hold-ups. Registration is effected once the purchaser is living at the property so an expedited registration is not always an essential issue yet where there is a degree of urgency associated with the registration then you or your solicitor can speak with the land registry and explain the circumstances.
