Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Hengoed

I was notified recently by my mortgage adviser that my Hengoed lawyer is not on the bank Solicitor panel. How can I be sure whether this is correct?

You need to contact your Hengoed lawyer directly. You lawyer should advise you what has happened. Where they are not on the panel they may recommend you to a Hengoed conveyancing firm that is on the approved list of lawyers for your lender.

Me and my partner are purchasing a apartment in Hengoed. It might be a silly question but how we can trust a lawyer? At some point we have to put funds into their account. What protection do we have from them run away with our deposit?

Be assured that all money in a Solicitors client account is 100% safe, and even if your Solicitor ran off with it, the Law Society would reimburse you fully.

Forgive me if this question is silly but I am new to the house moving as FTB of a ground floor flat in Hengoed. Do I collect the keys to the house on the completion date from my conveyancer? If so, I will appoint a local conveyancing solicitor in Hengoed?

There is no need to visit the lawyers office on the day of completion. Your solicitors will transfer the purchase money to the seller's conveyancers, and shortly after the monies have arrived, you should be called to pick up the keys from the selling Agents and start moving into the property. This tends to happen between 1 and 3pm.

I am due to exchange contracts on my apartment. I had a double glazing fitted in March 2010, but did not receive a FENSA certificate or Building Regulation Certificate. My buyer's mortgage company, Nottingham are being pedantic. The Hengoed solicitor who is on the Nottingham conveyancing panel is happy to accept ‘lack of building regulation’ insurance but Nottingham are requiring a building regulation certificate. Why do Nottingham have a conveyancing panel if they don't accept advice from them?

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

Should commercial conveyancing searches reveal planned roadworks that may impact a commercial site in Hengoed?

Many commercial conveyancing solicitors in Hengoed will carry out a SiteSolutions Highways report as it dramatically cuts the time that conveyancers invest in researching accurate data on highways that impact buildings and development assets in Hengoed. The report sets out definitive data on the adoption status of roads, footpaths and verges, as well as the implication of traffic schemes and the rights of way surrounding a commercial development sites in Hengoed.

For every commercial conveyancing transaction in Hengoed it is critical to investigate the adoption status of roads surrounding a site. Failure to identify developments where adoption procedures have not been dealt with adequately could result in delays to Hengoed commercial conveyancing deals as well as present a risk to future plans for the site. These searches are not ordered for domestic conveyancing in Hengoed.

4 months have gone by since my purchase conveyancing in Hengoed took place. I have checked the Land Registry website which shows that I paid £175,000 when infact I paid £160,000. Why the discrepancy?

The price paid figure is taken from the application to register the purchase. It is the figure included in the Transfer (the legal deed which transfers the residence from one person to the other) and referred to as the 'consideration' or purchase price. You can report an error in the price paid figure using the LR online form. In most cases errors result from typos so at first glance the figure. Do report it so they can double check and advise.

I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold element on a house I have offered on a fortnight ago in what was supposed to be a simple, no chain conveyancing. Hengoed is where the house is located. What do you suggest?

Flying freeholds in Hengoed are unusual but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even though you don't necessarily need a conveyancing solicitor in Hengoed you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds very carefully. Your bank may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Hengoed may decide that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold residence.

I am tempted by the attractive purchase price for a two apartments in Hengoed both have approximately forty five years unexpired on the lease term. should I be concerned?

A lease is a legal document that entitles you to use the premises for a prescribed time frame. As a lease shortens the marketability of the lease deteriorates and results in it becoming more expensive to extend the lease. For this reason it is advisable to increase the term of the lease. More often than not it is difficult to sell a property with a short lease because mortgage lenders may be unwilling to lend money on such properties. Lease extension can be a difficult process. We recommend you seek professional assistance from a solicitor and surveyor with experience in this arena.

I am the registered owner of a split level flat in Hengoed, conveyancing was carried out half a dozen years ago. Can you shed any light on how much the price could be for a 90 year extension to my lease? Equivalent properties in Hengoed with a long lease are worth £206,000. The ground rent is £45 levied per year. The lease comes to an end on 21st October 2091

With just 66 years remaining on your lease we estimate the premium for your lease extension to be between £12,400 and £14,200 plus legals.

The suggested premium range that we have given is a general guide to costs for extending a lease, but we cannot give you a more accurate figure without more comprehensive investigations. You should not use this information in tribunal or court proceedings. There may be other issues that need to be taken into account and you obviously want to be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. You should not move forward based on this information without first seeking the advice of a professional.
