I am helping my niece sell her flat in Llandeilo. Will the solicitor order an energy assessment or it is for me to coordinate?
After the demise of Home Information Packs, EPC’s became a compulsory part of selling a house. An energy performance certificate needs to be to hand before the property is advertised. It is not a task that law firms ordinarily arrange. Where you are using a Llandeilo conveyancing solicitor they may be able to arrange energy assessments given their contacts with long established Llandeilo accredited person
We previously selected conveyancers with offices in Llandeilo on the UBS solicitor panel. They are now charging me a further charge for handling the UBS mortgage. Is this an additional conveyancing fee set by UBS?
As unfair as it may appear, as long as it’s in their Terms of Engagement or Quote then yes your conveyancing practitioner may charge a fee for this. The charge is not dictated by UBS but by your Llandeilo property lawyer. Some firms on the UBS panel will quote an ‘acting for lender’ fee and others do not.

Once carried out (assuming no problems) it takes about a week for the mortgage offer to be issued. Bank of Ireland will send the offer to you and your property lawyers. The transaction will then take it’s course according the nature and complexity of the conveyancing in Llandeilo.
three months have elapsed since my purchase conveyancing in Llandeilo took place. I have checked the Land Registry website which shows that I paid £200,000 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.
Yesterday I discovered that there is a flying freehold issue on a house I put an offer in two weeks back in what should have been a simple, no chain conveyancing. Llandeilo is where the house is located. Is there any advice you can give?
Flying freeholds in Llandeilo are rare but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even though you don't necessarily need a conveyancing solicitor in Llandeilo you would need to get your solicitor to go through the deeds thoroughly. Your lender may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Llandeilo may determine 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.
