Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Llanidloes

I am one month into the sale of my maisonette in Llanidloes and the EA has just telephoned to warn that the purchasers are appointing a new solicitor. I am told that this is due to the fact that the bank will only engage with property lawyers on their approved list. On what basis would a leading mortgage company only work with certain solicitors rather the firm that they want to choose for their conveyancing in Llanidloes ?

UK lenders have always had panels of law firms that can act for them, but in the last few years big names such as Nationwide, have reviewed and reduced their conveyancing panel– in some cases removing conveyancing firms who have acted for them for many years.

Lending institutions blame a rise in fraud by way of justification for the pruning – criteria have been stiffened as a smaller panel is easier to monitor. Banks tend not to disclose how many solicitors have been dropped, claiming the information is commercially sensitive, but the Law Society says it is being contacted daily by practices that have been removed from panels. Some do not even realise they have been dropped until contacted by a borrower who has instructed them as might be the situation in your buyers' case. Your purchasers are not going to have any impact on this.

Is it possible for conveyancing in Llanidloes to be completed in less than two weeks?

In the event that you are under time constraints for your conveyancing it is highly recommended that your solicitor is familiar with the area as they will benefit local relationships and know-how. It is possible that they could have transacted previoushomes in the same neighbourhood. You would be best advised to use a Llanidloes conveyancing lawyer. Second, make sure that the lawyer is on the lender panel. It is believed that 18% of Llanidloes conveyancing deals are suspended or jeopardised after finding out that a purchaser’s conveyancer was not on their banks panel. In many cases this discovery resulted in the buying process being held up by as much as 21 days. It is estimated that this issue affects approximately 100,000 home sales annually. Many Llanidloes conveyancing firms can not act for certain lenders so do check as early as possible.

I have been told that property searches are the number one reason for hinderance in Llanidloes house deals. Is that correct?

The Council of Property Search Organisations (CoPSO) published conclusions of research by MoveWithUs that conveyancing searches do not figure amongst the most frequent causes of hindrances during the legal transfer of property. Searches are unlikely to be the root cause of holding up conveyancing in Llanidloes.

I've recently bought a leasehold property in Llanidloes. Do I have any liability for service charges relating to a period prior to completion of my purchase?

Where the service charge has already been demanded from the previous owner and they have not paid you would not usually be personally liable for the arrears. However, your landlord may still be able to take action to forfeit the lease. It is an essential part of leasehold conveyancing for your conveyancer to ensure to have an up to date clear service charge receipt before completion of your purchase. If you have a mortgage this is likely to be a requirement of your lender.

If you purchase part way through an accounting year you may be liable for charges not yet demanded even if they relate to a period prior to your purchase. In such circumstances your conveyancer would normally arrange for the seller to set aside some money to cover their part of the period (usually called a service charge retention).

Llanidloes Conveyancing for Leasehold Flats - A selection of Questions you should ask Prior to buying

    Where a Llanidloes lease has no more than 80 years it will impact the salability of the apartment. Check with your mortgage company that they are happy with remaining years on the lease. Leases with less than 80 years remaining means that you will almost definitely have to extend the lease at some point and you need to have some idea of how much this would cost. Remember, in most cases you would be required to have been the owner of the property for 24 months before you are entitled to exercise a lease extension. It is important to be aware whether changing the roof or some other significant cost is pending to be shared amongst the tenants and will materially increase the the maintenance costs or necessitate a one time invoice. What restrictions are there in the Llanidloes Lease?

Estate agents have just been given the go-ahead to market my garden flat in Llanidloes.Conveyancing is yet to be initiated however I have recently had a quarterly service charge invoice – should I leave it to the buyer to sort out?

The sensible thing to do is clear the maintenance contribution as you normally would as all ground rent and maintenance charges should be allottedas part of the financial calculations for completion monies, so you will be reimbursed by the buyer for the period running from after the completion date to the next payment date. Most management companies will not acknowledge the buyer until the service charges have been paid and are up to date so it is important for both buyer and seller for the seller to show that they are up to date. This will smooth the conveyancing process
