Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Llantwit Fardre

I am six weeks into the sale of my apartment in Llantwit Fardre and the EA has just called to say that the buyers are switching solicitor. The excuse is that the mortgage company will only work with solicitors on their conveyancing panel. On what basis would a leading mortgage company only work with specific lawyers rather the firm that they want to choose to handle their conveyancing in Llantwit Fardre ?

Banks have always had panels of law firms they are willing to work with, but in recent years big names such as Santander, have considered and reduced their conveyancing panel– in some cases removing conveyancing firms who have worked with them for decades.

Lending institutions point to the increase in fraud by way of justification for the pruning – criteria have been tightened as a smaller panel is easier to monitor. Banks tend not to reveal 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. Plenty of firms are unaware that they have been dropped until contacted by a borrower who has instructed them as might be the situation in your buyers' case. Your buyers are unlikely to have any impact on this.

Our nephew is purchasing a house that has just been built in Llantwit Fardre with a home loan from Kent Reliance. His conveyancer has advised him of a delay in receiving the ‘Disclosure of Incentive Form’. What is this document - I have never come across this before?

The form is intended to provide information to the main parties engaged in the transaction. Therefore, it will be provided to your son’s lawyer who should be on the Kent Reliance conveyancing panel as a standard part of the process, and to the surveyor when asked. The developer will be required to start the process by downloading the form and completing it. The form will therefore need to be available for the valuer at the time of his or her site visit. The form should be sent to the Kent Reliance conveyancing panel solicitor as early as possible, in order to avoid any last minute delays, and no later than at exchange of contracts.

I used Arc property Solicitors several years past for my conveyancing in Llantwit Fardre. I now require my papers however the law firm is no longer operating. What do I do?
