The price paid figure is taken from the application to register the purchase.

You can report an error in the price paid figure using the LR online form. In most cases errors result from typos so at first glance the figure. Do report it so they can double check and advise.

I am buying a new build apartment in Cwmcarn. Conveyancing is daunting at the best of times but I have never purchased a new build flat before. Can you give me some examples of some of the questions asked in new build legal work.

Here is a sample of a few leasehold new build questions that you may expect your new-build leasehold conveyancing in Cwmcarn

    If there are lifts in the building, please confirm that the owners of flats on the ground and basement floors will not be required to contribute towards the cost of maintenance and renewal. Investor purchasers must be able to freely grant unsecured tenancies at market rents without requiring any consents. Please supply a car parking plan. The Lease must contain a provision on behalf of the Vendor to pay the service charges in respect of unoccupied units in order to ensure that all services can be provided. Forfeiture - bankruptcy or liquidation must not apply under this provision.

Developers have recommended to me a conveyancing practitioner and I've received a quote from them. It's almost two hundred pounds cheaper than my local Cwmcarn property lawyer. What's the catch?

Developers frequently have lists of property lawyers who expedite matters and who know the seller’s paperwork and lawyer. Plenty of developers offer an incentive to choose their approved conveyancing practitioner for this reason, any increased charges can be avoided and a developer will not suggest a conveyancing warehouse and run the risk of having the conveyancing stall when they demand an exchange inside a month. A counter-argument for not opting for the suggested conveyancer is that they may be unwilling to fight for your interests at the risk of alienating the housebuilder. Where you have concerns that this may be the case you should stick with your high street Cwmcarn solicitor.
