Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Llantrisant

Would the conveyancing practitioners identified through your search tool handle auction conveyancing in Llantrisant?

There are a number of niche lawyers we can put you in touch with those who can conduct auction conveyancing. Llantrisant is just one of our areas of where our lawyers cover.

Can you explain why leasehold purchase conveyancing in Llantrisant costs more?

In summary, leasehold conveyancing in Llantrisant and Rhondda Cynon Taff usually involve extra work compared to freehold transactions. This includes analysing the lease terms, corresponding with the landlord concerning the service of applicable notices, obtaining current service charge and management information, securing the landlord’s consents and reviewing management accounts. The obligations on both the landlord and the tenant in the lease need to be studied by the buyer’s conveyancing team and read from beginning to end – regardless of the fact the lease has passed through many different property solicitors hands since it was first entered into.

I purchased my home on 4 May and the transaction details are still not registered. Need I be worried? My conveyancing solicitor in Llantrisant said it will be registered inside ten days. Are titles in Llantrisant uniquely lengthy to register?

As far as conveyancing in Llantrisant is concerned, registration is no faster or slower than anywhere else in the country. Rather than based on location, timescales can adjust according to the party submitting the application, whether it is in order and whether the Land registry need to notify any third persons or bodies. As of today in the region of 80% of such applications are fully addressed in less than three weeks but some can be subject to longer hold-ups. Registration takes place after the purchaser has moved in to the premises so registration formalities is not always primary concern yet where it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your lawyers could communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for the application to be prioritised.

How does conveyancing in Llantrisant differ for newly converted properties?

Most buyers of new build premises in Llantrisant contact us having been asked by the housebuilder to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the premises is constructed. This is because developers in Llantrisant typically acquire the site, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct property lawyers as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are used to new build conveyancing in Llantrisant or who has acted in the same development.

Should I be suspicious that estate agents that I am dealing with are recommending an online conveyancing firm rather than a High Street Llantrisant conveyancing firm?

As with many service providers, often recommendations from family and friends can be most helpful. Nevertheless there are lots of parties with a keen interest in a conveyancing matter; estate agents, mortgage brokers and banks might all suggest solicitors to instruct. Sometimes the lawyers might be known to one of the organisations as one of the best in their field, but occasionally there may be a financial incentive behind the recommendation. You have the discretion to appoint your preferred conveyancer. You need to be aware that the majority of banks specify a panel list of solicitors you are obliged to use for the mortgage related work in your transaction.

I am a negotiator for a long established estate agent office in Llantrisant where we have experienced a number of leasehold sales put at risk as a result of short leases. I have been given inconsistent advice from local Llantrisant conveyancing firms. Please can you clarify whether the vendor of a flat can instigate the lease extension formalities for the buyer?

Provided that the seller has been the owner for at least 2 years it is possible, to serve a Section 42 notice to kick-start the lease extension process and assign the benefit of the notice to the purchaser. The benefit of this is that the buyer can avoid having to sit tight for 2 years for a lease extension. Both sets of lawyers will agree to form of assignment. The assignment needs to be completed before, or simultaneously with completion of the sale.

An alternative approach is to agree the lease extension with the freeholder either before or after the sale. If you are informally negotiating there are no rules and so you cannot insist on the landlord agreeing to grant an extension or transferring the benefit of an agreement to the purchaser.

I am the registered owner of a basement flat in Llantrisant, conveyancing formalities finalised in 2010. Can you let me have an estimated range of the fair premium for a lease extension? Corresponding flats in Llantrisant with an extended lease are worth £191,000. The ground rent is £55 invoiced annually. The lease runs out on 21st October 2079

With only 54 years unexpired we estimate the price of your lease extension to be between £32,300 and £37,400 plus legals.

The figure above a general guide to costs for extending a lease, but we cannot give you the actual costs without more detailed due diligence. Do not use this information in a Notice of Claim or as an informal offer. There may be additional issues that need to be considered and you obviously should be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. You should not take any other action placing reliance on this information before getting professional advice.
