I just acquired a flat at auction in Llanbedrgoch. Conveyancing is required. What happens now?
Having exchanged you will need to appoint a conveyancing practitioner soon as you are faced with a pending a drop dead date to complete the transaction. An auction property will have a bespoke legal set of papers. This should include evidence of title and search results. In the case of leasehold property the legal pack should contain a copy of the lease, management information and a sellers leasehold information form and associated conveyancing documentation relating to leasehold premises. You must hand this to the solicitor working for you ASAP. You also need to ensure that that you have the requisite funding in place to complete on the on the contractual date .
Forgive me if this question is silly but I am wet behind the ears as a 1st time buyer of a ground floor flat in Llanbedrgoch. Do I receive the keys to the house on the completion date from my lawyer? If so, I will instruct a local conveyancing solicitor in Llanbedrgoch?
There is no need to visit the lawyers office on the day of completion. Conveyancing lawyers for you will arrange to send the completion advance to the owner’s lawyers, and once they have received this, you should be invited to receive the keys from the selling Agents and start moving into the property. This tends to happen early afternoon.
We are getting a further advance on our home loan from Aldermore as we intend to carry out alterations to our property in Llanbedrgoch. Do we need to appoint a high street Llanbedrgoch solicitor on the Aldermore conveyancing panel to handle the legals?
Aldermore would not normally require firms on their conveyancing panel to deal with such a matter. If they do require any legal work then you would need to ensure that such a lawyer was on the Aldermore conveyancing panel.
Do I need to take out insurance to protect me from financial exposure to chancel repairs when buying a property in Llanbedrgoch?

How does conveyancing in Llanbedrgoch differ for newly converted properties?
Most buyers of new build premises in Llanbedrgoch contact us having been asked by the seller to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the premises is ready to move into. This is because new home sellers in Llanbedrgoch typically acquire 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 property lawyers 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 accustomed to new build conveyancing in Llanbedrgoch or who has acted in the same development.
Yesterday I discovered that there is a flying freehold issue on a house I put an offer in a fortnight ago in what was supposed to be a straight forward, no chain conveyancing. Llanbedrgoch is the location of the property. Can you offer any guidance?
Flying freeholds in Llanbedrgoch are rare but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Llanbedrgoch you would need to get your solicitor to go through the deeds very carefully. Your lender may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Llanbedrgoch 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.
