At what point will exchange of contracts occur in domestic conveyancing in Cilfynydd and do I need to attend the conveyancers office?
If you are local to our conveyancing solicitors in Cilfynydd you are invited in to sign contracts. However, the lender approved solicitors we work with supply countrywide coverage for conveyancing and give as equally detailed and professional a job for you when dealing with you electronically. The executing of the contract is not when everything is set in stone. A signed contract simply enables the solicitor to address the formalities when the time is right, which will usually be very shortly after signing. The exchange process is nowadays normally dealt with by telephone and can be very rapid, although where an extended "chain" is in the mix, since the process requires the relevant party's solicitor (not necessarily a conveyancing solicitor in Cilfynydd)to be in the office available at the end of the phone to exchange contracts.
My wife and I own a renovated Victorian property in Cilfynydd. Conveyancing practitioner acted for me and Skipton Building Society. I did a free Land Registry search last week and I saw two entries: one for freehold, the second leasehold with the exact same property. I thought I was buying a freehold how can I check?
You should read the Freehold register you have again and check the Charges Register for mention of a lease. The best way to be sure that you are also the registered proprietor of the leasehold and freehold title as well is to check (£3). It is not completely unheard of in Cilfynydd and other locations in the country and poses no real issues for owners other than when they sell they have to account for both freehold and leasehold interests when dealing with purchasers. You can also question the situation with the conveyancing solicitor who conducted the purchase.
I am purchasing a new build house in Cilfynydd benefiting from help to buy. The sellers refused to move on the price so I negotiated £7000 of additionals instead. The estate agent advised me not reveal to my solicitor about the extras as it would impact my mortgage with the bank. Should I keep quiet?.
All lenders require a Disclosure of Incentives Form from the builder of any new build, converted or renovated property, It is available online from the Lenders’ Handbook page on the CML website. CML form is completed and handed to the lender's surveyor when the inspection is done.
Lenders have different policies on incentives. Some accept none at all, cash or physical, while others will accept cash incentives up to 5%.
Hard to understand why the representative of a builder would be suggesting you withold information from a solicitor when all this will be clearly visible on forms the builder has to supply to its solicitor, the buyer's solicitor and the surveyor.
I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold element on a property I have offered on last month in what should have been a simple, chain free conveyancing. Cilfynydd is the location of the property. Is there any advice you can give?
Flying freeholds in Cilfynydd are rare but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Cilfynydd you would need to get your solicitor to go through the deeds very carefully. Your mortgage company may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Cilfynydd 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 property.
