We chose a high street lawyer for my conveyancing in Llangammarch Wells recently. Upon checking the Ts and Cs I seewe are liable for charges even where the transaction does not complete. Should I go with them or select an on-line firm offering no completion no charge conveyancing in Llangammarch Wells?
Generally there is a compromise along the lines that if "No Completion No Fee" is advertised then the fee levels will generally be uplifted to cover those conveyances that do not go ahead.

It is a dozen years since I bought my home in Llangammarch Wells. Conveyancing solicitors have recently been instructed on the sale but I am unable to track down the title deeds. Is this a problem?
You need not be too concerned. First there is a chance that the deeds will be retained by your lender or they could be in the possession of the lawyers who handled the purchase. Secondly the chances are that the property will be recorded at the land registry and you will be able to prove you own the property by your conveyancing solicitors obtaining up to date copy of the land registers. The vast majority of conveyancing in Llangammarch Wells relates to registered property but in the rare situation where your home is unregistered it is more problematic but is not insurmountable.
I'm purchasing a new build house in Llangammarch Wells benefiting from help to buy. The builders would not reduce the price so I negotiated 6k of additionals instead. The sale representative advised me not disclose to my conveyancer about this extras as it will impact my mortgage with Nottingham Building Society. Should I keep quiet?.
All lenders require a Disclosure of Incentives Form from the developer of any new build, converted or renovated property, It is available online from the Lenders’ Handbook page on the CML website. CML form is completed and handed to the lender's surveyor when the inspection is done.
Lenders have different policies on incentives. Some accept none at all, cash or physical, while others will accept cash incentives up to 5%.
Hard to understand why the representative of a builder would be suggesting you withold information from a solicitor when all this will be clearly visible on forms the builder has to supply to its solicitor, the buyer's solicitor and the surveyor.
