The Glyn Ceiriog conveyancing lawyers that I recently instructed on my purchase in Glyn Ceiriog have without warning closed. They were on acting for me because I had to have a solicitor on the Yorkshire BS conveyancing panel and my previous Glyn Ceiriog lawyer was not. I cut them a cheque for two hundred pounds in advance. What do I do now?
If you have an estate agent involved then let them know immediately so that they advise the vendors that there may be a slight delay due to reasons beyond your control. Most sellers would be sympathetic and urge their lawyer to send a new set of papers to your new solicitors. You will need to 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 should be in a position to help.
Is it correct that all Glyn Ceiriog CQS (Conveyancing Quality Scheme) solicitors are on the UBS conveyancing panel?
It is true that some banks and building societies now make use of the accreditation scheme as the kick off point for Panel membership such as HSBC and Santander. CQS accreditation however gives no guarantee to lender panel acceptance. Nevertheless,the Council of Mortgage Lenders have indicated that it is likely to become a pre-requisite for solicitors wishing to join their panels.
I have decided to exercise my right to buy my property in Glyn Ceiriog off the council. I have a mortgage agreed with RBS. Conveyancing is not something I have any knowledge of. Can I proceed without a solicitor easily? I think we can but we keep being told I should have one. Any advice?
It is not advisable to proceed with a house purchase without a solicitor. The council's solicitor are not acting for you. You need a solicitor for a number reasons. One of which is to verify what plans the Council have for repairs and refurbishment for the next five years. Many leaseholders have been stung for contributions of thousands of pounds. In any event, if you are getting a mortgage with RBS, you will need to appoint a solicitor on the RBS conveyancing panel.
Intending to buy a maisonette in Glyn Ceiriog. I have received an online quote from a licenced conveyancer, which states: "There will be no charge for dealing with the Lender if you are obtaining a mortgage". I take this to mean that there will be no additional fee if the solicitor is on the Coventry BS 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 Glyn Ceiriog lawyer is on the Coventry BS conveyancing panel.
I have recentlydiscovered that Stirling Law have been shut down. They conducted my conveyancing in Glyn Ceiriog for a purchase of a freehold house 9 months ago. How can I check that the property is registered correctly in the name of the previous owner?
The quickest method to see if the premises is in your name, you can carry out a search of the land registry (£3.00). You can either do this yourself or ask a law firm to do this for you. If you are not registered you can seek help from one of a number of Glyn Ceiriog conveyancing specialists.
I am looking for a leasehold apartment up to £195,000 and found one round the corner in Glyn Ceiriog I like with amenity areas and transport links in the vicinity, however it's only got 52 years on the lease. There is not much else in Glyn Ceiriog suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake purchasing a lease with such few years left?
If you need a mortgage that many years will likely be problematic. Reduce the offer by the anticipated lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the existing owner has owned the premises for at least 2 years you can ask them to start the process of the extension and then assign it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the existing lease and have £0 ground rent by law. You should consult your conveyancing solicitor about this.
