I am buying a detached bungalow in Ferryside. We would like to convert the garage to a playroom at the property.Will the conveyancing process involve enquiries to ascertain if these works were previously refused?

Your solicitor should check the deeds as conveyancing in Ferryside will on occasion identify restrictions in the title deeds which prohibit certain works or need the permission of another owner. Some additions call for local authority planning permissions and approval under the building regulations. Certain areas are designated conservation areas and special planning restrictions apply which frequently prevent or impact extensions. It would be sensible to check these things with a surveyor before you commit yourself to a purchase.

Our offer on a semi in Ferryside has been agreed to, but there is a chain. The sellers have put an offer on somewhere, but it’s not yet tied up, and are looking at other properties booked. I have instructed a high street conveyancing solicitor in Ferryside. What should be my next step? When do I get the mortgage application with UBS started?

It is normal to have anxieties where there is a chain as you are unlikely to want to be too out of pocket too early (home loan application is in the region of £1k, then survey, Ferryside conveyancing search fees, etc). First, you must check that your conveyancing practitioner is on the UBS approved list. Concerning the next steps this very much dictated by the uniqueness of your case, attraction to this property and on the state of the market. During a rising market the majority of purchasers would apply for the mortgage with UBS and pay for the valuation and only if it comes back ok would they pay their conveyancing practitioner to proceed with the conveyancing in Ferryside.

I’m about to sell my garden flat in Ferryside. Conveyancing is yet to be initiated, but I have recently had a quarterly maintenance charge invoice – Do I pay up?

The sensible thing to do is clear the invoice as normal given that all rents and maintenance invoices should be allotted on completion, so you should recover the relevant percentage by the purchaser for the period running from after the completion date to the subsequent invoice date. Most management companies will not acknowledge the buyer until the service charges have been paid and are up to date, so it is important for both buyer and seller for the seller to show that they are up to date. Having a clear account will assist your cause and will leave you no worse off financially.
