The Caersws conveyancing lawyers that I appointed last week on my house acquisition in Caersws have without warning shut down. I only went with them because I had to have a firm on the RBS conveyancing panel and my preferred Caersws lawyer was not. I gave my credit card details for them to take £195 for searches. What do I do now?
Assuming that you have an Estate Agent in the equation then inform them straight away so that they can let the sellers know that there may be a slight delay due to the problems encountered. Most sellers would be sympathetic and urge their lawyer to send a new set of papers to your new solicitors. You will need to appoint new lawyers that are on the RBS conveyancing panel and notify the lender. If you have paid over any money, it will hopefully be held by the SRA as money in an intervened firm's bank accounts is transferred to the SRA. Then, the SRA or the intervention agent looks at the intervened firm's accounts to work out who the money belongs to. To claim your money you will need to contact the SRA. If the SRA cannot return money you are owed from the firm's bank accounts, or if they can only return part of the money, you can apply to the Compensation Fund for a grant. Your new solicitors may be able to assist.
We are buying a apartment in Caersws. I might seem paranoid but how we can trust a conveyancer? On the day of competition we have to send our life savings into their account. What is the protection we have from them run away with our deposit?
Be assured that all money in a Solicitors client account is 100% safe, and even if your Solicitor ran off with it, the Law Society would reimburse you fully.
We were going to get a DIP from HSBC this week so we know how much we could potentially offer as otherwise we are dependent on web based calculators (which aren't taking into account credit checks etc). Do HSBC recommend any Caersws solicitors on the HSBC conveyancing panel, or is it better to go independently?
You will need to appoint Caersws solicitors independently although you'll need to choose one on the HSBC conveyancing panel. The solicitor represents both you and HSBC through the process.
I had an offer accepted on a house in Caersws on 26/8/2025, valuation was booked 3 days after, received a clean bill of health. Solicitor appointed, so all that was missing was my mortgage offer. Having made daily calls to Kent Reliance and chasing them on my offer, I have now been told that my offer will not be issued unless the lawyer is on the Kent Reliance conveyancing panel. Are Kent Reliance entitled to hold back the Mortgage pending the lawyer being on the approved list?
A lender would not issue an offer until they have details of a lawyer on their panel. It can take a few weeks for Kent Reliance to deal with your lawyer's application to be on the Kent Reliance conveyancing panel. There's no guarantee that your solicitor will be accepted.
Are there restrictive covenants that are commonly identified as part of conveyancing in Caersws?
Covenants that are restrictive in nature can be picked up when reviewing land registry title as part of the process of conveyancing in Caersws.

Just had an offer accepted on a new build apartment in Caersws. Conveyancing is a frightening process 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.
Set out below are examples of a few leasehold new build enquiries that you should expect your new-build leasehold conveyancing in Caersws
-
The Lease must contain a provision on behalf of the Vendor to pay the service charges in respect of unoccupied units in order to ensure that all services can be provided. Will control of the Management Company (if any) be handed over to purchasers on completion of the last sale or earlier? The Vendor must covenant to keep unsold units in good repair until long leases are granted therefore. Forfeiture - bankruptcy or liquidation must not apply under this provision. Please provide evidence that the form of Lease proposed has been approved by the Land Registry.
Am I right to be suspicious about estate agents that I am dealing with are suggesting a nationwide conveyancing firm rather than a local Caersws conveyancing firm?
As is the case with many service providers, often recommendations from connections can be most helpful. Yet there are lots of players in a conveyancing deal; estate agents, mortgage brokers and lenders might all put forward lawyers to appoint. Sometimes these solicitors might be known to one of the organisations as being good in their field, but sometimes there behind the scenes commercial relationship behind the endorsement. You are free to select your preferred conveyancer. Don't forget that most banks have an approved list of solicitors you have to use for the lender aspect of your house move.
