Finally, a mortgage offer from Nationwide for the remortgage of my 2 bedroom maisonette is coming by the end of next week. Can you propose a cheap conveyancing practitioner in Llandough?
This site is not designed to aid those in their quest for cut-price fees for conveyancing solicitors in Llandough. We can offer you excellent value conveyancing but our intention is not to work with the cheapest lawyers. Resist the temptation to appoint brokers enticing you with £99 conveyancing in Llandough. In your best case scenario, in deciding on cheap conveyancing, you will get your money’s worth and at worst it will result in you invoiced for extras and still not get the service you were hoping for.
My partner and I intend to remortgage our penthouse in Llandough with Co-operative. We have a son 18 who lives at home. Our solicitor requested us to identify any adults other than ourselves who reside at the property. Our lawyer has now e-mailed a document for our son to sign, giving up any rights in the event that the apartment is repossessed. I have a couple of concerns (1) Is this form unique to the Co-operative conveyancing panel as he never had to sign this form when we bought 4 years ago (2) In signing this form is our son in any way compromising his right to inherit the property?
On the face of it your lawyer has done nothing wrong as it is established procedure for any occupier who is aged 17 or over to sign the necessary Consent Form, which is purely to state that any rights he has in the property are postponed and secondary to Co-operative. This is solely used to protect Co-operative if the property were re-possessed so that in such circumstances, your son would be legally obliged to leave. It does not impact your son’s right to inherit the apartment. Please note that if your son were to inherit and the mortgage in favour of Co-operative had not been discharged, he would be liable to take over the loan or pay it off, but other than that, there is nothing stopping him from keeping the property in accordance with your will or the rules of intestacy.
The Llandough conveyancing lawyers that I appointed last week on my house acquisition in Llandough have without warning shut down. I chose them because I needed a solicitor on the RBS conveyancing panel and my preferred Llandough lawyer was not. I paid them money in advance. What do I do now?
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 should appoint new lawyers that are on the RBS 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 assist.

My husband and I have agreed a price on a Llandough property left to us some years ago in 2011. I have over twenty years conveyancing know-how and, although retired, wish to do my own legal work. The purchaser's solicitor has informed me that their bank will not allow us to do our own conveyancing requiring the funds to be transferred to a solicitor's bank account.
Lending instructions to solicitors from all CML members specify that If the vendor does not have legal representation the borrower's lawyers should check whether the bank needs to be informed so that a decision can be reached as to whether or not they are willing to proceed.
