It is a dozen years since I acquired my home in Burry Port. Conveyancing solicitors have recently been retained on the sale but I can't find the deeds. Is this a problem?

Don’t worry too much. Firstly the deeds may be retained by the mortgage company or they could be in the possession of the lawyers who acted in your purchase. Secondly the chances are that the property will be recorded at the land registry and you will be able to establish that you own the property by your conveyancing lawyers acquiring up to date copy of the land registers. The vast majority of conveyancing in Burry Port relates to registered property but in the rare situation where your home is unregistered it is more tricky but is resolvable.

Last month we had a mortgage agreed in principle with HSBC. Burry Port conveyancing solicitors have been chosen. What is the average time that one could expect to receive a mortgage offer from HSBC?

Some lenders take longer than others. Have HSBC done the valuation? Have you advised HSBC as to your lawyers' details and checked that your lawyers are on the HSBC conveyancing panel? It is not unusual for a mortgage offer to take a month to come through.

We expect to receive a AIP from Nottingham this week so we know how much we could potentially offer as otherwise we only have online calculators to go by (which aren't taking into account credit checks etc).

You will need to appoint Burry Port solicitors independently although you'll need to choose one on the Nottingham conveyancing panel. The solicitor represents both you and Nottingham through the process.

Completion of my remortgage has taken place for my property in Burry Port. Conveyancing was of an acceptable standard but I feel I should register my dissatisfaction about the lender. How does one go about formally complaining?

All lenders have complaints procedures. Your first port of call should be one of the lender’s branches or the Customer Care Department at head office. In most cases complaints to a lender are sorted out effectively and efficiently. If you feel the matter is not resolved you can write to Financial Ombudsman Service with full details of your complaint.

22 days into a sale of a flat in Burry Port. Conveyancing solicitors are doing their job but we are being charged an extortionate amount by the landlord. To date we have paid £275 for a leasehold management information and then another £200 plus VAT for answers to questions supplied by the buyers property lawyer.

You will not have control over the level of the fee for this information but the typical costs for the information for Burry Port leasehold property is £360. For Burry Port conveyancing deals it is standard for the seller to pay for these costs. The landlord or their agents are not duty bound to answer such questions although many will agree to do so - albeit often at exorbitant prices disproportionate to the work involved. Unfortunately there is no statute that requires fixed fees for administrative tasks. Nor is there any prescriptive time limit by which they are duty bound to supply the information.
