Should my conveyancer be raising enquiries regarding flooding during the conveyancing in Caersws.

The risk of flooding is if increasing concern for lawyers carrying out conveyancing in Caersws. Plenty of people will acquire a property in Caersws, fully expectant that at some time, it may be flooded. However, aside from the physical damage, if a house is at risk of flooding, it may be difficult to obtain a mortgage, satisfactory building insurance, or dispose of the property. There are steps that can be taken as part of the conveyancing process to forewarn the buyer.

Conveyancers are not best placed to offer advice on flood risk, however there are a number of searches that can be initiated by the purchaser or by their solicitors which should give them a better understanding of the risks in Caersws. The conventional set of property information forms sent to a purchaser’s solicitor (where the solicitors are adopting what is known as the Conveyancing Protocol) includes a usual question of the seller to find out whether the property has historically flooded. If flooding has previously occurred which is not disclosed by the owner, then a purchaser may bring a claim for damages stemming from an misleading answer. A purchaser’s conveyancers will also commission an environmental search. This will indicate whether there is a recorded flood risk. If so, further inquiries should be initiated.

How does conveyancing in Caersws differ for newly converted properties?

Most buyers of new build residence in Caersws approach us having been asked by the seller to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the property is finished. This is because new home sellers in Caersws typically buy the real estate, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct conveyancing solicitors as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are accustomed to new build conveyancing in Caersws or who has acted in the same development.

My son is about to join the property ladder, he had his mortgage in principle. After the offer was accepted on flat we telephoned the lender to issue the formal offer. We were very surprised to hear that banks do not accept all property lawyer, they have to be on a list, is this correct?

Mortgage Companies normally imposes restrictions either the type or the number of conveyancing firms on their approved list of lawyers. A common example of such restriction(s) being that a firm must have two or more partners. In addition to restricting the type of firm, some have decided to limit the number of firms they use to represent them. You should note that lenders have no responsibility for the quality of advice provided by any Caersws conveyancing practitioner on their panel. Mortgage fraud was a key driver in the rationalisation of conveyancing panels a few years ago and whilst there are differing views about the extent of solicitor involvement in some of that fraud. Statistics from the Land Registry reveal that thousands of law firms only carry out one or two conveyances a year. Those supporting conveyancing panel cuts ask why law firms should have the right to be on a Lender panel when clearly, conveyancing is not their speciality. To put it another way; would you want a conveyancing solicitor to represent you if you were charged with a crime? Probably not.
