I have a decision in principle. The lender mentioned the home loan came with free conveyancing. Does this mean I have to use their panel conveyancer as I would much rather use a Llanmartin based conveyancing firm?
Do check but the the likelihood is that allocate you one of their panel lawyers where you want the "fee-free" offer. Call the lender to ask if they make available a cash alternative. It is not unheard for a lender to give a £250 cashback as a further option in which case you could put that amount towards your preferred conveyancing solicitor in Llanmartin.
I am selling our property in Llanmartin and the buyers lawyers are claiming that there is a possibility that the property was constructed land that was not decontaminated. A local lawyer would know this is not the case. It does beg the question why the buyers used an internet conveyancing practice rather than a conveyancing solicitor in Llanmartin. We have lived in Llanmartin for three years we know of no issue. Is it a good idea to get in touch with our local Authority to get confirmation need.
It would appear that you have a conveyancing firm already. What do they say? You must check with your lawyer before you do anything. It is very possible that once the local authority has been informed of a potential issue it cannot be insured against (a bit like being diagnosed with a serious illness and then taking out life insurance to cover that same sickness)
I own a 4 bedroom Victorian property in Llanmartin. Conveyancing solicitor represented me and Yorkshire Building Society. I did a free Land Registry search last week and there are two entries: the first freehold, another for leasehold with the exact same address. I'd like to know for sure, how can I find out??
You need to read the Freehold register you have again and check the Charges Register for mention of a lease. The best way to be sure that you are also the registered proprietor of the leasehold and freehold title as well is to check (£3). It is not completely unheard of in Llanmartin and other areas of the country and poses no real issues for owners other than when they buy they have to account for both freehold and leasehold interests when dealing with buyers. You can also check the situation with your conveyancing lawyer who completed the work.
How can the Landlord & Tenant Act 1954 impact my commercial property in Llanmartin and how can you help?
The particular law that you refer to gives security of tenure to commercial leaseholders, giving them the a statutory right to apply to court for a continuation of occupancy at the end of an expired lease. There are limited grounds where a landlord can refrain from granting a lease renewal and the rules are complicated. We are happy to direct you to commercial conveyancing solicitors who use the act to your advantage and handle your commercial conveyancing in Llanmartin
In my capacity as executor for the will of my aunt I am disposing of a house in Monmouth but live in Llanmartin. My solicitor (based 250 miles from merequires that I sign a stat dec ahead of the transaction finalising. Can you recommend a conveyancing lawyer in Llanmartin who can attest and place their company stamp on the document?
Technically speaking you are unlikely to need to have the documents witnessed by a conveyancing solicitor. Normally any notary public or solicitor will be fine regardless of whether they are located in Llanmartin
