We decided to go with a high street firm for our conveyancing in Brynmawr recently. Reviewing the Terms and Conditions it is apparent thatI am on the hook for costs even if the sale aborts. Would I be best advised to use an on-line lawyer advertising no move no charge conveyancing in Brynmawr?
It is usually ‘give and take’ in that if "No Completion No Fee" is advertised then the conveyancing charges will generally be uplifted to offset the conveyances that fail to complete. You should be mindful that such deals tend not to protect you from outlay such as Brynmawr conveyancing search charges.
Our Brynmawr conveyancer has discovered a difference between the information in the home valuation survey and what is revealed within the conveyancing documents. My solicitor says that he must ensure that the lender is happy with this discrepancy and is still content to lend. Is my solicitor’s approach appropriate?
Your property lawyer must comply with the UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook requirements which do require that your lawyer disclose any incorrect assumptions in the lender’s valuation report and the legal papers. Should you refuse to allow your lawyer to make the appropriate notification then your lawyer will have no choice but to discontinue acting for you.
We are purchasing a 4 bedroom semi-detached house in Brynmawr. The intention is to carry out a loft conversion at the house.Will the conveyancing process include enquiries to determine if these alterations are allowed?
Your conveyancer will review the deeds as conveyancing in Brynmawr will occasionally reveal restrictions in the title documents which restrict certain changes or require the permission of another owner. Some works call for local authority planning permissions and approval in compliance with building regulations. Many locations are designated conservation areas and special planning restrictions apply which often prevent or affect extensions. It would be prudent to check these issues with a surveyor ahead of any purchase.
I have paid off my mortgage with Skipton. I assume I don't need a Brynmawr conveyancing practitioner on the Skipton panel to remove the mortgage at the Land Registry. Am I right?
If you have finished paying off your Skipton mortgage, they may send you evidence showing that you have paid it off. Alternatively they may notify the Land Registry directly. The Land Registry need to see this evidence before they will remove the Skipton mortgage from the register. Skipton, and any evidence they send you, will determine the action you need to take. In cases where no conveyancer is acting for you and you have paid off your mortgage:
- but are not moving to another property
- where Skipton has sent the Land Registry the discharge electronically, and
- Skipton has instructed the Land Registry to do so
Intending to buy a house in Brynmawr. I have received an online quote from a licenced conveyancer, which states: "There will be no charge for dealing with the Building Society if you are obtaining a mortgage". I take this to mean that there will be no additional fee if the solicitor is on the Leeds Building Society conveyancing panel. I wanted to make sure it means there will be no additional fees for dealing with the mortgage.
They are simply saying that the cost for acting for the lender is included in the fee being quoted. It is worth you checking that the Brynmawr conveyancing practitioner is on the Leeds Building Society conveyancing panel.
It has been 2 months following my purchase conveyancing in Brynmawr concluded. 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 premises 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.
