It is is a decade since I bought my property in Carmarthen. Conveyancing lawyers have recently been instructed on the sale but I am unable to locate my title documents. Will this cause complications?
You need not be too concerned. Firstly the deeds may be retained by the lender or they may still be with the solicitor who oversaw the purchase. Secondly in most cases the land will be recorded at the land registry and you will be able to prove you own the property by your conveyancing lawyers obtaining current official copies of the land registers. Most conveyancing in Carmarthen involves registered property but in the rare situation where your property is unregistered it adds to the complexity but is resolvable.
I happen to be the single recipient of my late father’s estate and I have everything in my name now, including the my former home in Carmarthen. Conveyancing formalities meant that the Land Registry date was in March. I plan to dispose of the house. I understand that there is a CML 6 month 'rule', meaning my proprietorship may be regarded the same way as if I'd bought the house in March. Do I have to wait 6 months to sell?
The Council of Mortgage Lenders’ handbook requires conveyancers to: "report to us immediately if the owner or registered proprietor has been registered for less than six months." Technically you might be impacted by that. Some lenders would take a practical view as this requirement is chiefly there to identify subsales or the wholesaling and assigning of property.

I am buying a property in Carmarthen. An unusual aspect is that the roof has a solar panel. TSB have issued a mortgage offer so presumably this is not a concern to them. Why is my solicitor raising questions about the panel?
As you are obtaining a mortgage with TSB your lawyer must comply with the formal requirements set out in Section two of UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook for TSB. The CML Handbook sets out minimum specifications for solar panel roof-space leases, and conveyancing practitioners are required to report to TSB where a lease fails to comply with these specifications. The provisions relate to the installation of panels on properties countrywide and is not isolated to Carmarthen.

Yesterday I discovered that there is a flying freehold element on a property I put an offer in two weeks back in what was supposed to be a straight forward, chain free conveyancing. Carmarthen is where the house is located. Can you offer any advice?

Even where you use a solicitor outside Carmarthen you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds very carefully. Your bank may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Carmarthen may ascertain that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold premises.
