When will exchange of contracts take place for domestic conveyancing in Caersws and am I required to be at the lawyers office?
If you are local to one of the conveyancing solicitors in Caersws you are invited in to sign contracts. However, the firms we recommend provide a national conveyancing service and provide as equally detailed and professional a job for you when communicating with you by post or email.

The procedure is is usually a five minute process, although where a lengthy "chain" is involved, since the process requires the relevant party's solicitor (not necessarily a conveyancing solicitor in Caersws)to be in the office at the appropriate time.

After the demise of HIPs, energy performance certificates remained a mandatory element of selling a house. An energy assessment should be to hand in advance of the property being marketed. This is not something that solicitors normally arrange. Where you are using a Caersws conveyancing lawyer they might be willing to arrange energy performance certificates given their contacts with reputable Caersws energy assessors
The mortgage over my property is with Principality for my property in Caersws. Conveyancing has been completed a year ago. If I am intending to rent out my property and do not currently have a buy-to-let mortgage do I need to remortgage to a buy-to-let mortgage or inform Principality?
Principality must be informed of your intention prior to letting out your property as this is likely to be a breach of Principality’s mortgage conditions. In many cases banks or building societies will allow you to rent out your former home without needing to switch to a buy-to-let mortgage but some lenders will add a surcharge to your mortgage rate to reflect the higher risk. You should contact Principality directly. It should not be necessary to do this via a Principality conveyancing panel lawyer.
