Last August we completed a house move in Llanishen. We have since encountered a number of problems with the house which we consider were overlooked in the conveyancing searches. Is there anything we can do? What searches should? have been conducted for conveyancing in Llanishen?
The query is vague as what problems have arisen and if they are specific to conveyancing in Llanishen. Conveyancing searches and investigations undertaken during the buying process are designed to help avoid problems. As part of the legal transfer of property, the vendor completes a form referred to as a SPIF. answers turns out to be misleading, you may have a misrepresentation claim against the owner 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 Llanishen.
If you had a top tip for choosing a conveyancing solicitor in Llanishen what would it be?
Do not opt for the cheapest Llanishen conveyancing quote. You really do get what you’re paying for when it comes to conveyancing solicitors. A cheap quote may mean that the conveyancing solicitor is handling a lot of jobs at one time and you won’t get the quality of service and the attention that you need. It is, however, wise to use a conveyancer who has a fixed fee on a no sale, no fee basis. This way, you know exactly what you’ll have to pay in ahead of time.

About to purchase apartment in Llanishen. I have received an online quote from a licenced conveyancer, which states: "There will be no charge for dealing with the Lender if you are obtaining a mortgage". I take this to mean that there will be no additional fee if the solicitor is on the Co-operative conveyancing panel. I wanted to make sure it means there will be no additional fees for dealing with the mortgage.
They are simply saying that the cost for acting for the lender is included in the fee being quoted. It is worth you checking that the Llanishen lawyer is on the Co-operative conveyancing panel.

The conveyancing solicitors carrying out our conveyancing in Llanishen has forwarded papers to review that indicate that the land is unregistered with epitome documents. Is it not the case that all properties in Llanishen should be registered?
Most property in Llanishen is registered. An 'epitome' is basically a dossier of photocopies of documents affecting an unregistered title. Plenty of Llanishen conveyancing lawyers should be capable of dealing with this type of conveyancing but if any uncertainty prevails the standard recommendation presently is for the current owners to undertake the registration formalities first and subsequently deal with the sale conveyance - this will have a knock on effect to cause a significant delay.
