A colleague suggested that if I am purchasing in Kilgetty I should carry out a Neighbourhood, Planning and Local Amenity Search. What does it cover?
A search of this type is occasionally quoted for as part of the standard Kilgetty conveyancing searches. It is a large report of more than thirty pages, listing and setting out significant information about Kilgetty around the property and the people living there. It includes an Aerial Photograph, Planning Applications, Land Use, Mobile Phone Masts, Rights of Way, the Kilgetty Housing Market, Council Tax Banding, the type of People living in the area, the dominant type of Housing, the Average House Prices, Crime statistics, Local Education with maps and statistics, Local Amenities and other useful data about Kilgetty.
The estate agent has sent us the confirmation of our purchase of a new build flat in Kilgetty. Conveyancing is a frightening process at the best of times but I have never purchased a new build flat before. Can you give me some examples of some of the questions asked in new build conveyancing.
Set out below are examples of a few leasehold new build enquiries that you should expect your new-build leasehold conveyancing in Kilgetty
-
Please confirm the Lease plans are surveyor prepared. Please supply a car parking plan. Will the freehold then be transferred for a nominal consideration (not exceeding £100) to the Management Company? Forfeiture - bankruptcy or liquidation must not apply under this provision.

I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold element on a property I put an offer in last month in what was supposed to be a straight forward, chain free conveyancing. Kilgetty is the location of the property. What do you suggest?
Flying freeholds in Kilgetty are unusual but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even though you don't necessarily need a conveyancing solicitor in Kilgetty you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds very carefully. Your mortgage company may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Kilgetty may ascertain 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'm refinancing my existing home to a BTL mortgage with Halifax and intend to use the remaining equity as a down payment on a second property. The area we are talking about is Kilgetty. Will your solicitors be able to act for the two banks and link together the transactions?
Do use our comparison tool on this site to be sure that the lawyers are on the relevant lender panels. On the basis that they are the lawyer will be able to connect the two deals but you should talk with you conveyancer and make apparent your expectations and requirements.

I happen to be an executor of my recently deceased aunt’s Will, with a property in Kilgetty which will be marketed. The bungalow has never been registered at HMLR and I'm told that some estate agents will insist that it is in place before they will move forward. What's the mechanism for this?
In the situation you refer to it seems advisable to apply to register in the names of the personal representative(s) as named in the probate and in their capacity as PRs. The Land Registry’s online guidance explains how to register for the first time and what is required re the deeds and forms. You would need to include and certified copy of the probate as well and complete the form FR1 to refer to the PRs as the applicant.
