I am getting a offer of a home loan from Santander. I would like to employ the services of a Licensed Conveyancer in Brynmawr. Does the Santander Conveyancing panel exclude conveyancers regulated by the CLC?
The Santander conveyancing panel is, like many other lenders, associated to the Council or Mortgage Lenders or BSA, open to Licensed Conveyancers regulated by the CLC.
As a first time buyer what is the most important piece of guidance you can give me regarding purchase conveyancing in Brynmawr?
You may not hear this from too many lawyers but conveyancing in Brynmawr or throughout Blaenau Gwent is often a confrontational experience. Put another way, when it comes to conveyancing there exists an abundance of room for confrontation between you and others involved in the transaction. E.g., the vendor, estate agent and even potentially your lender. Appointing a law firm for your conveyancing in Brynmawr should not be taken lightly as your conveyancer is your adviser, and is the ONE party in the legal process whose responsibility is to look after your best interests and to protect you.
Sometimes a third party with a vested interest will attempt to persuade you that you should follow their advice. As an example, the property agent may claim to be helping by suggesting your lawyer is dragging his heels. Or your mortgage broker may try to convince you to do something that is contrary to your conveyancers recommendation. You should always trust your lawyer above all other parties in the conveyancing process.
Are there restrictive covenants that are commonly identified during conveyancing in Brynmawr?
Restrictive covenants can be picked up when reviewing land registry title as part of the legal transfer of property in Brynmawr. An 1874 stipulation that was seen was ‘The houses to be erected on the estate are each to be of a uniform elevation in accordance with the drawings to be prepared or approved by the vendor’s surveyor…’
The estate agent has sent us the confirmation of our purchase of a new build flat in Brynmawr. Conveyancing is daunting at the best of times but I have never purchased a new build flat before. Can you give me some examples of some of the questions asked in new build legal work.

I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold element on a house I put an offer in two weeks back in what should have been a simple, chain free conveyancing. Brynmawr is the location of the property. What do you suggest?
Flying freeholds in Brynmawr are not the norm but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Brynmawr you would need to get your solicitor to go through the deeds diligently. Your bank may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Brynmawr 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.
