Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Dunvant

The loan agreement from NatWest for the refinancing of my single room garden flat is coming imminently. Can you put forward a cheap conveyancing law firm in Dunvant?

This site is not designed to help those in pursuit of a cheap conveyancing in Dunvant. Our intention is to offer excellent value conveyancing but we do not advertise as being the cheapest. Resist the temptation to appoint companies seducing you with ninety nine pound conveyancing in Dunvant. The optimum outcome, in being led by low cost conveyancing, you will earn what you pay for and at worst you will end up with a surprising uplift in additional fees and still not receive the service expected.

In reviewing consumer advice sites for a conveyancing lawyer in Dunvant, many advise that I must instruct a CQS accredited solicitor. Can you explain what CQS is?

The Law Society's Conveyancing Quality Scheme is the recognised quality mark for legal experts in home moving process, trusted by some of the UK's leading lenders. In 2011-12 the Conveyancing Quality Scheme was officially recognised by the Association of British Insurers (ABI). The scheme does not cover licenced conveyancers. Dunvant is one of the numerous areas in England and Wales where there are CQS solicitors.

We are planning to move property in September. Will my conveyancing solicitor liaise with the removal company on the completion day. Incidentally, can you suggest a removal company in Dunvant. Conveyancing solicitor was chosen before I stumbled across this page.

On the afternoon of completion you can pick up the house keys from your property agent but this should only take place after the vendors solicitors inform the agent that the monies to complete are in and the keys can be given over. You can inform the removal men that they can start moving you in. As a matter of policy we do not recommend a specific removal organisation but can help you choose a residential property solicitor in Dunvant or a firm with expertise in conveyancing in Dunvant.

Can you point me to a directory of Kent Reliance panel solicitors in Dunvant on the Building Society Association’s Website?

Unfortunately not yet. There is no such directory service on the Council of Mortgage Lenders or Building Society Association sites. Very few lenders make their panel listings visible online. Where you are in need of a Dunvant solicitor on the Kent Reliance please use our facility.

I've read lots of mortgage guides, I note that they all recommend that you should get your house surveyed prior to buying it. When I asked my local Dunvant solicitor - who is on the Kent Reliance conveyancing panel - on this she said they don't do this and I need to contract an independent surveyor. Is that normal?

Kent Reliance will need an independent valuation of the property. Your lawyer will not arrange this. Usually Kent Reliance will appoint their own surveyor to do this, and you will have to pay for it. Remember that this is a valuation for mortgage purposes and not a survey. You may wish to consider appointing your own Dunvant surveyor to carry out a survey or prepare a home buyers report on the property. It is up to you to satisfy yourself that the property is structurally sound before you buy it. If the survey or report reveals that building work is needed, you should tell your solicitor. You may wish to renegotiate with the seller.

Over the last few months I have been searching for a flat up to £305k and identified one close by in Dunvant I like with a park and station in the vicinity, however it only has 49 remaining years left on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Dunvant in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake acquiring a short lease?

Should you require a mortgage that many years will be problematic. Discount the price by the anticipated lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the existing owner has owned the property for a minimum of twenty four months you can request that they start the process of the extension and then assign it to you. You can add 90 years to the current lease and have £0 ground rent by law. You should consult your conveyancing solicitor about this.

Am I better off to use a Dunvant conveyancing practitioner in close proximity to the house I am hoping to buy? An old friend can handle the legal formalities but her office is a couple of hundredmiles drive away.

The primary upside of using a high street Dunvant conveyancing practice is that you can drop in to sign paperwork, hand in your identification documents and apply pressure on them where appropriate. Having local Dunvant know how is a bonus. That being said nothing is more important than finding someone that will do a good and efficient job. If if people you trust instructed your friend and the majority were impressed that should outweigh using an unfamiliar Dunvant conveyancing lawyer solely due to them being Dunvant based.

I have just placed an offer on an apartment in Dunvant and the broker that we are using recommended his conveyancing practitioner. She quoted £1000 plus VAT and 3rd party costs. Does this sound like a good deal?

You should not rely on a single estimate. One should obtain like-for-like quotes for your conveyancing in Dunvant. Then pick one that you are comfortable with and crucially, is on the approved panel of the mortgage company that you have applied for a mortgage from.
