Unfortunately I am unable to travel far from Llanwrtyd Wells. I would like to know the understand why all Llanwrtyd Wells lawyers are not on all mortgage company panels?
Even though it may seem unfair for mortgage companies to restrict who can act for them, from the public’s or conveyancer’s standpoint, the flip side is that lending institutions are becoming ever more anxious and regard it imperative to protect them against mortgage fraud. As a result of this concern mortgage companies are limiting their conveyancing panel to a size that they are happy to control.
Me and my partner are buying a apartment in Llanwrtyd Wells. I might seem paranoid but how we can trust a conveyancer? On the day of competition we have to put money into their account. What protection do we have from them run away with our deposit?

There are numerous conveyancing solicitors in Llanwrtyd Wells but how do I know who I should use?
It would be unwise to be tempted by the cheapest Llanwrtyd Wells conveyancing fees. You really do get what you’re paying for when it comes to conveyancing solicitors. A cheap quote may mean that the conveyancing solicitor is handling a lot of jobs at one time and you won’t get the quality of service and the attention that you need. It is, however, wise to use a conveyancer who has a fixed fee on a no sale, no fee basis. This way, you go into the conveyancing with your eyes wide open.

My husband and I are first time buyers - had an offer accepted, but the agent advised that the vendor will only issue a contract if we use their chosen solicitors as they need an ‘expedited deal’. Our preferred option is to instruct a high street solicitor who is accustomed to conveyancing in Llanwrtyd Wells
It is highly unlikely the owners are behind this. If they desire ‘a quick sale', turning down a serious purchaser is counter productive. Speak to the owners direct and make the point that (a)you are keen to buy (b)you are ready to go, with finances in place © you do not need to sell (d) you intend to proceed fast (e)but you are going to use your preferred Llanwrtyd Wells conveyancing solicitors - not the ones that will provide their estate agent a kickback or achieve conveyancing thresholds demanded by head office.
Last July I purchased a leasehold flat in Llanwrtyd Wells. Do I have any liability for service charges relating to a period prior to my ownership?
In a situation where the service charge has already been demanded from the previous owner and they have not paid you would not usually be personally liable for the arrears. However, your landlord may still be able to take action to forfeit the lease. It is an essential part of leasehold conveyancing for your conveyancer to be sure to have an up to date clear service charge receipt before completion of your purchase. If you have a mortgage this is likely to be a requirement of your lender.
If you purchase part way through an accounting year you may be liable for charges not yet demanded even if they relate to a period prior to your purchase. In such circumstances your conveyancer would normally arrange for the seller to set aside some money to cover their part of the period (usually called a service charge retention).
