Reasons to use our Crynant conveyancing solicitors

  • 1 There is a distinct possibility the the conveyancers for the other party are based in Crynant - if so both parties are likely to have worked on conveyancing matters in the past
  • 2 The companies listed on our directory have a variation of conveyancing practitioners, legal executives and support staff handling over one hundred thousand cases each year.
  • 3 Using a local Solicitor on the whole results in a more bespoke service. Sometimes when dealing with a an online conveyancing factory, you tend to be looked after by a team of people who check what is happening on the file by determining whether the ‘computers says no’.
  • 4 The hallmark of our conveyancing solicitors in Crynant is quality not quantity. The level of service offered by conveyancing "factories" (sometimes 'recommended' by large estate agency chains) sometimes falls short of the level of professionalism you will expect.
  • 5 Personal touch and pure property expertise are key benefits that you should seek when choosing conveyancing solicitors. Crynant property deals can become a lot more stressful as a result of lack of transparency between all the parties. The lawyers we work with endeavour to make sure that communication channels are open and act on arising issues and developments instantly.

we are a couple who are hoping to buy a newbuild flat in Crynant with a mortgage from Lloyds TSB Bank.We like our Crynant conveyancing practitioner but Lloyds TSB Bank advised that he's not on their "panel". It seems we are left with little choice but to instruct a Lloyds TSB Bank panel lawyer or keep our preferred solicitor and pay for one of their panel ones to act for them. We feel as though this is unjust; Can we not simply insist that Lloyds TSB Bank use our lawyer?

Unfortunately,no. The loan issued to you contains various provisions, one of which will be that lawyers needs to be on the Lloyds TSB Bank conveyancing panel. in the past, most mortgage companies had large numbers of solicitors on their panels: a borrower could choose one for themselves, as long as it was on the lender's panel. The lender would then simply instruct the borrower's lawyers to act for the lender, too. You can use your lender's panel lawyers or you could borrow from another lender which does not restrict your choice. Another option that might be available is for your solicitors to apply to be on the conveyancing panel for Lloyds TSB Bank

Why do Crynant conveyancing costs differ for leasehold and freehold properties?

If acquiring a leasehold property there is more work involved purely due to the fact that usually there are further parties involved in the form of the freeholder and/or Management Agents. As part of a lawyers enquiries they will check that all ground rent and service charges are paid up to date amongst other general leasehold matters. For this reason, the Sellers lawyers usually have to refer to the freeholder or Managing Agent for their replies to our questions. This may be time consuming and beyond the lawyers control
