I have given 2 months notice to my existing landlord and have to leave my rented property in Llanbradach by the end of next month. Conveyancing on my purchase is underway. Is it possible to complete in six weeks as I wish to avoid having to find temporary accommodation?
Generally one should not serve notice for your letting unless you have exchanged. Assuming that you have not already done so, update to your lawyer and request that they seek the assistance the owners solicitors, try to a target completion date that all parties will work to achieve
The Llanbradach conveyancing lawyers that just started acting on my house acquisition in Llanbradach have suddenly shut down. I chose them because I had to have a lawyer on the Bank of Ireland conveyancing panel and my preferred Llanbradach lawyer was not. I cut them a cheque for £250 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 the problems encountered. 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 Bank of Ireland 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.

My husband and I are novice buyers - had an offer accepted, but the estate agent has warned us that the owners will only go ahead if we use their recommended lawyers as they need an ‘expedited deal’. We would rather use a local solicitor used to conveyancing in Llanbradach
It is improbable the vendors are driving this. Should the vendor desire ‘a quick sale', alienating a genuine buyer is going to damage their objectives. Contact the vendors directly and make the point that (a)you are keen to buy (b)you are excited to move forward, with mortgage lined up © you do not need to sell (d) you intend to proceed fast (e)but you intend to appoint your own,trusted Llanbradach conveyancing firm - not the ones that will earn their negotiator at the agency a kickback or achieve conveyancing figures demanded by head office.
We have been informed by many estate agents that it may take six to eight weeks for Llanbradach conveyancing to complete.This was a month ago. The draft contract was only received to my solicitor yesterday so does the clock start running now?
Six to 8 weeks is an extremely loose timescale. Addressing accurately how how many weeks Llanbradach conveyancing will take is nigh on impossible. Every Llanbradach conveyancing transaction will have it’s bespoke set of complexities. As a result your solicitor will find it difficult to accurately predict how long it will take to conclude your conveyancing in Llanbradach.
