Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Bryncoch

Me and my husband are purchasing a leasehold flat in Bryncoch. My Conveyancer is not listed on the mortgage company solicitor list. Can I still use my Bryncoch conveyancing solicitor even though they are excluded from the lender panel?

One must appoint a conveyancer to complete the legal work required when you take out a loan to buy your property. The conveyancer will conduct all the essential investigations on the property, make sure that you’re registered as proprietor and ensure that all the necessary mortgage paperwork is in order. One may instruct a Bryncoch conveyancer of your choice. However, if the solicitor selected is not a member of the bank solicitor panel additional fees will be incurred as separate legal representation will be required by them. Conveyancing panel applications may be submitted, so provided your conveyancer has not previously applied for membership they should do so.

Would the conveyancing solicitors to be found on your site carry out auction conveyancing in Bryncoch?

There are a few auction solicitors we can connect you with those who can conduct auction conveyancing. Bryncoch is one of our locations where our lawyers have offices.

What happens if my lawyer’s firm is suspended from the Principality Conveyancing panel ahead of completing my conveyancing in Bryncoch?

First, this is a very rare occurrence. In most cases even where a law firm is removed off of a panel the lender would allow the completion to go ahead as the lender would appreciate the difficulties that they would place you in if you have to instruct a new solicitor days before completion. In a worst case scenario where the lender insists that you instruct a new firm then it is possible for a very good lawyer to expedite the conveyancing albeit that you may pay a significant premium for this. The analogous situation is where a buyer instructs a lawyer, exchanges contracts and the law firm is shut down by a regulator such as the SRA. Again, in this situation you can find lawyers who can troubleshoot their way to bring the conveyancing to a satisfactory conclusion - albeit for a fee.

We are selling our property in Bryncoch and the buyers lawyers are claiming that there is a possibility that the property was constructed land that was not decontaminated. A local conveyancer would know that there is no such problem. It does beg the question why the purchasers instructed a web based conveyancing practice rather than a conveyancing solicitor in Bryncoch. Having lived in Bryncoch for three years we know of no issue. Is it a good idea to get in touch with our local Authority to get confirmation that there is no issue.

It sounds as though you may have a conveyancing solicitor currently acting for you. Are they able to advise? You should enquire of 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 sickness)

The estate agent has sent us the confirmation of our purchase of a new build flat in Bryncoch. Conveyancing is a frightening process at the best of times but I have never purchased a new build flat before. What sort of enquires would be asked in new build legal work.

Here is a sample of a selection of leasehold new build questions that you can expect your new-build leasehold conveyancing in Bryncoch

    If there are lifts in the building, please confirm that the owners of flats on the ground and basement floors will not be required to contribute towards the cost of maintenance and renewal. Will control of the Management Company (if any) be handed over to purchasers on completion of the last sale or earlier? Will the freehold then be transferred for a nominal consideration (not exceeding £100) to the Management Company? Forfeiture - bankruptcy or liquidation must not apply under this provision. Please supply a car parking plan.

The conveyancing solicitors undertaking our conveyancing in Bryncoch has forwarded papers to review that reveal that the property is unregistered with epitome documents. Why is the property not registred at HM Land Regsitry?

Although the vast majorities of properties in Bryncoch are now registered with HM Land Registry there are still a few that remain unregistered. Any property in Bryncoch that has been transferred since the late 1980’s will have been registered at the Land Registry under the compulsory ‘first registration’ scheme. However, if a Bryncoch property has not changed hands in that time then it’s likely the old fashioned title deeds will be the only evidence of ownership.Plenty of Bryncoch conveyancing solicitors will be able to handle this type of conveyancing but where uncertainty prevails the conventional recommendation nowadays is for the current owners to register it first and thereafter sell - this no doubt result in a significant delay.
