I am soon to complete buying a house in Llanishen but as a result of damage from the recent storms I have managed to agree recompense from the vendor of six thousand pounds in the form of a reduction in the price. This was going to be addressed as part of amending the contract but Principality will not permit this. Why were they involved?
The solicitor being on a Principality conveyancing panel is obliged to inform Principality of any changes to the sale price. If you prohibit your lawyer to notify the reduction to Principality then they would have to discontinue acting for you. In addition, Principality and you would have to appoint a new property lawyer for your conveyancing in Llanishen.

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.

Yesterday I discovered that there is a flying freehold issue on a property I put an offer in last month in what should have been a quick, chain free conveyancing. Llanishen is where the house is located. What do you suggest?
Flying freeholds in Llanishen are unusual but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Llanishen you would need to get your solicitor to go through the deeds diligently. Your mortgage company may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Llanishen may determine that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold premises.
