My wife and I are soon to complete buying a property in Llantwit Major but as a result of wreckage from a small fire at the property I have was able negotiate recompense from the current proprietors of £2k by way of a reduction in the price. I had intended this to be dealt with as part of the conveyancing process yet Barclays will not agree to this. Why were they notified?
Any solicitor that is on a Barclays approved list is obliged to advise Barclays of any changes to the purchase price. If you prohibit your lawyer to disclose the reduction to Barclays then they would have to discontinue acting for you. In addition, Barclays and you would have to appoint a new solicitor for your conveyancing in Llantwit Major.

However, no property lawyer should guarantee a timeframe for your conveyancing, due to third parties outside of your control such as delays caused by lenders,conveyancing search providers or by the other side’s solicitors.

I have just appointed agents to market my basement apartment in Llantwit Major.Conveyancing has not commenced but I have recently had a yearly maintenance charge demand – what should I do?
Your conveyancing lawyer is likely to suggest that you should pay the service charge as usual because all ground rent and maintenance invoices should be allottedas part of the financial calculations for completion monies, so you will be reimbursed by the buyer for the period running from after the completion date to the subsequent invoice date. Most managing agents will not acknowledge the buyer until the service charges have been paid and are up to date so it is important for both buyer and seller for the seller to show that they are up to date. This will smooth the conveyancing process
