The Cwmcarn conveyancing lawyers that I appointed last week on my house acquisition in Cwmcarn have without warning closed. I only went with them because I needed a solicitor on the Yorkshire BS conveyancing panel and my family Cwmcarn lawyer was not. I gave my credit card details for them to take £195 for searches. What are my options?

If you have an estate agent involved then inform them straight away so that they can let the sellers know that there may be a slight delay due to the problems encountered. Hopefully they will be sympathetic and urge their lawyer to send a new set of papers to your new solicitors. You should appoint new lawyers that are on the Yorkshire BS conveyancing panel and notify the lender. If you have paid over any money, it will hopefully be held by the SRA as money in an intervened firm's bank accounts is transferred to the SRA. Then, the SRA or the intervention agent looks at the intervened firm's accounts to work out who the money belongs to. To claim your money you will need to contact the SRA. If the SRA cannot return money you are owed from the firm's bank accounts, or if they can only return part of the money, you can apply to the Compensation Fund for a grant. Your new lawyers may be able to assist.

Forgive me if this question is silly but I am new to the home moving as FTB of a garden flat in Cwmcarn. Do I receive the keys to the premises on the completion date from my conveyancer? If so, I will find a High Street conveyancing solicitor in Cwmcarn?

There is no need to visit the lawyers office on the day of completion. Your solicitors will electronically transfer the purchase money to the owner’s lawyers, and once they have received this, you should be invited to receive the keys from the property Agents and start moving into the property. This tends to happen between 1 and 3pm.

We were going to get a OIP from Clydesdale this week so we can work out what to offer on a property we like as otherwise we only have online calculators to go by (which aren't taking into account credit checks etc). Do Clydesdale recommend any Cwmcarn solicitors on the Clydesdale conveyancing panel, or is it better to go independently?

You will need to appoint Cwmcarn solicitors independently although you'll need to choose one on the Clydesdale conveyancing panel. The solicitor represents both you and Clydesdale through the process.

I am selling my flat. I had a double glazing fitted in March 2008, but did not receive a FENSA certificate or Building Regulation Certificate. My buyer's lender, UBS are being pedantic. The Cwmcarn solicitor who is on the UBS conveyancing panel is recommending indemnity insurance as a solution but UBS are insisting on a building regulation certificate. Why do UBS have a conveyancing panel if they don't accept advice from them?

It is probably the case that UBS have referred the matter to their valuer. The reason why UBS may not want to accept indemnity insurance is because it does not give them any reassurance that the double glazing was correctly and safely installed. The indemnity insurance merely protects against enforcement action which is very unlikely anyway.

I require quick conveyancing in Cwmcarn as I am faced with a deadline to complete within 3 weeks. A home loan is not required. Can I decline from having conveyancing searches to save money and time?

As you are are a cash buyer you are at liberty not to have searches conducted although no solicitor would recommend that you don't. Drawing on years of experience of conveyancing in Cwmcarn the following are examples of issues that can crop up and adversely impact the marketability of the property: Refused Planning Applications, Overdue Charges, Outstanding Grants, Road Schemes,...

Over the last few months I have been searching for a ground for flat up to £235,500 and found one near me in Cwmcarn I like with open areas and station in the vicinity, however it only has 52 remaining years left on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Cwmcarn suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error buying a short lease?

Should you need a home loan the remaining unexpired lease term will be problematic. Reduce the price by the expected lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the current owner has owned the premises for at least twenty four months you may ask them to commence the lease extension formalities and then assign it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the existing lease term and have £0 ground rent by law. You should consult your conveyancing lawyer regarding this.

I am in need of some leasehold conveyancing in Cwmcarn. Before I get started I want to be sure as to the unexpired term of the lease.

Assuming the lease is recorded at the land registry - and most are in Cwmcarn - then the leasehold title will always include the basic details of the lease, namely the date; the term; and the original parties. From a conveyancing perspective such details then enable any prospective buyer and lender to confirm that any lease they are looking at is the one relevant to that title. For any other purpose, such as confirming how long the term was granted for and calculating what is left, then the register should be sufficient on it's own.

I bought a split level flat in Cwmcarn, conveyancing formalities finalised 5 years ago. Can you work out an approximate cost of a lease extension? Equivalent properties in Cwmcarn with an extended lease are worth £202,000. The average or mid-range amount of ground rent is £60 charged once a year. The lease runs out on 21st October 2081

You have 56 years remaining on your lease the likely cost is going to span between £29,500 and £34,000 plus professional fees.

The suggested premium range above a general guide to costs for extending a lease, but we are not able to supply the actual costs without more detailed due diligence. Do not use the figures in tribunal or court proceedings. There are no doubt additional concerns that need to be considered and you obviously want to be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. You should not take any other action based on this information without first getting professional advice.
