This question may be naive but I am wet behind the ears as a 1st time purchaser of a ground floor flat in Fishguard. Do I collect the keys to the house on the completion date from my conveyancer? If this is the case, I will use a local conveyancing solicitor in Fishguard?

There is no need to visit the lawyers office on the day of completion. Conveyancing lawyers for you will transfer the purchase money to the owner’s lawyers, and shortly after the monies have arrived, you will be called to collect the keys from the selling Agents and start moving into the property. Usually this occurs early afternoon.

I am selling my apartment. I had a double glazing fitted in February 2006, but did not receive a FENSA certificate or Building Regulation Certificate. My buyer's lender, Yorkshire BS are being a right pain. The Fishguard solicitor who is on the Yorkshire BS conveyancing panel is recommending indemnity insurance as a solution but Yorkshire BS are insisting on a building regulation certificate. Why do Yorkshire BS have a conveyancing panel if they don't accept advice from them?

It is probably the case that Yorkshire BS have referred the matter to their valuer. The reason why Yorkshire BS 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.

About to purchase house in Fishguard. I have received an online quote from a licenced conveyancer, which states: "There will be no charge for dealing with the Building Society if you are obtaining a mortgage". I take this to mean that there will be no additional fee if the solicitor is on the Principality conveyancing panel. I wanted to make sure it means there will be no additional fees for dealing with the mortgage.

They are simply saying that the cost for acting for the lender is included in the fee being quoted. It is worth you checking that the Fishguard conveyancer is on the Principality conveyancing panel.

Many commercial conveyancing solicitors in Fishguard will perform a SiteSolutions Highways report as it dramatically cuts the time that conveyancers spend in investigating accurate data on highways that impact buildings and development assets in Fishguard.

I completed on my flat on 13 July and the transaction details is not yet registered. Need I be worried? My conveyancing solicitor in Fishguard said it will be registered inside ten days. Are titles in Fishguard particularly slow to register?

As far as conveyancing in Fishguard is concerned, registration is no faster or slower than anywhere else in the country. Rather than based on location, timeframes can adjust according to the party submitting the application, whether it is in order and whether the Land registry need to notify any interested parties. Currently roughly three quarters of such applications are fully addressed within 12 days but some can be subject to protracted hold-ups. Registration occurs once the buyer has moved in to the premises thus registration formalities is not always top priority but where it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your lawyers could contact the land registry and explain the circumstances.

How does conveyancing in Fishguard differ for new build properties?

Most buyers of new build or newly converted property in Fishguard come to us having been asked by the builder to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the residence is ready to move into. This is because builders in Fishguard typically buy the land, 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 conveyancers 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 Fishguard or who has acted in the same development.

Given that I will soon part with £400,000 on 3 bedroom house in Fishguard I wish to have a conversation with the solicitor concerning thetransaction prior to instructing the firm. Is this something that you can arrange?
