I got the keys to my home on 16 July and my personal details is not yet on the land registry website. Need I be worried? My conveyancing solicitor in Dunvant advises it would be formalised in a couple of weeks. Are titles in Dunvant particularly slow to register?

There is nothing unique when it comes to conveyancing in Dunvant registration formalities. Rather than based on location, timeframes can differ according to the party submitting the application, whether there are errors and whether the Land registry must send notices to any third persons or bodies. Currently roughly 80% of submission are fully dealt with within two weeks but occasionally there can be protracted delays. Registration occurs once the buyer has moved in to the premises thus registration formalities is not usually primary concern but where it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your conveyancer could communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for an expedited registration.

How does conveyancing in Dunvant differ for newly converted properties?

Most buyers of new build property in Dunvant contact us having been asked by the seller to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the property is completed. This is because new home sellers in Dunvant tend to acquire the site, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct conveyancing solicitors as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are used to new build conveyancing in Dunvant or who has acted in the same development.

Due to the input of my in-laws I had a survey completed on a property in Dunvant ahead of appointing conveyancers. I have been told that there is a flying freehold aspect to the house. Our surveyor has said that some lenders will not grant a mortgage on this type of house.

It varies from the lender to lender. Bank of Scotland has different requirements for example to Halifax. If you e-mail us we can check with the appropriate lender. If you lender is happy to lend one our lawyers can assist as they are accustomed to dealing with flying freeholds in Dunvant. Conveyancing may be slightly more expensive based on your lender's requirements.
