I am expecting a mortgage with Halifax. I intend to enlist the help of a Licensed Conveyancer in Llandeilo. Does the Halifax Solicitor panel exclude Licensed Conveyancers?
The Halifax approved solicitor list is, like many other lenders, associated to the Council or Mortgage Lenders or BSA, open to Licensed Conveyancers regulated by the CLC.
I have given 8 weeks notice to my existing landlord and have to vacate my let out flat in Llandeilo by 9/3/2026. Conveyancing on my purchase has just started. Is it possible to complete in 4 weeks as don't want to have to find temporary accommodation?
Generally one should not provide notice for your lease until you have exchanged. Assuming that you have not previously done so, speak to your solicitor and urge them to they seek the assistance the sellers side, try to get a realistic time scale from them that everyone will work towards
Finally the sale completed on my house in Llandeilo last September but our buyer keeps whats apping every few hours to moan that their lawyer needs to hear from mine. What should have happened now that I have sold?
Following your sale your conveyancer is duty bound to send the transfer deeds and all supplemental paperwork to the buyer’s conveyancer. Where relevant, your conveyancer must also evidence that the mortgage has been discharged to the purchasers conveyancers. There is unlikely to be post completion tasks just for conveyancing in Llandeilo.
The Llandeilo conveyancing firm that just started acting on my purchase in Llandeilo have suddenly shut down. I chose them because I needed a solicitor on the Kent Reliance conveyancing panel and my preferred Llandeilo lawyer was not. I gave my credit card details for them to take one hundred and fifty pounds for searches. What should be my next steps?
If you have an estate agent involved then inform them straight away so that they advise the vendors that there may be a slight delay due to the problems encountered. Hopefully they will 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 Kent Reliance 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 may be able to help.
Are there restrictive covenants that are commonly identified during conveyancing in Llandeilo?
Covenants that are restrictive in nature can be picked up when reviewing land registry title as part of the legal transfer of property in Llandeilo. An 1874 stipulation that was seen was ‘The houses to be erected on the estate are each to be of a uniform elevation in accordance with the drawings to be prepared or approved by the vendor’s surveyor…’
