My wife and I have just bought a property in Llandyrnog. We have noticed several problems with the property which we suspect were overlooked in the conveyancing searches. Do we have any recourse? What searches should? have been carried out as part of conveyancing in Llandyrnog?
It is not clear from the question as to the nature of the problems and if they are relate to conveyancing in Llandyrnog. Conveyancing searches and investigations initiated as part of the buying process are carried out to help avoid problems. As part of the legal transfer of property, a property owner completes a document called a Seller’s Property Information Form. answers is incorrect, you could possibly take legal action against the seller for any losses that you have suffered. The survey should have identified any problems with the structure of the property. Assuming a detailed survey was carried out and the issues were not identified, you may have a claim against the surveyor. However, if you did not have a full survey, you may be responsible for fixing any defects that have now been noted. We would always encourage buyers to take every possible step to ensure they are completely aware of the condition of a property before purchase regardless of whether they are buying in Llandyrnog.

I purchased my flat on 7 October and my personal details is yet to be on the land registry website. Need I be worried? My conveyancing solicitor in Llandyrnog expressed confidence that it will be dealt with in a couple of weeks. Are titles in Llandyrnog uniquely lengthy to register?
As far as conveyancing in Llandyrnog is concerned, registration is no quicker or slower than the rest of the country. Rather than based on location, timescales can vary depending on the party submitting the application, whether it is in order and if the Land registry need to notify any other parties. At present roughly 80% of such applications are completed in less than three weeks but occasionally there can be longer delays. Registration occurs once the new owner is living at the premises therefore 'speed' is not typically an essential issue but if there is a degree of urgency associated with the registration then you or your lawyers must communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for an expedited registration.
