My friend's sister is a conveyancer. I hope that I'll be able to get friends and family pricing for conveyancing, but if not, what kind of fees should I be paying for conveyancing in Llwyngwril?
You should contrast pricing. Make use of our search tool on this page. You will notice that prices seem to be different but the service one can expect are distinct between solicitors as is true with most professions.
We are close to exchanging contracts on the sale of our home in Llwyngwril and according to the buyers it appears that there is a possibility that the property was built land that was not decontaminated. Any local conveyancer would know that there is no such problem. For the life of me I don't know why the buyers used an internet conveyancing outfit rather than a conveyancing solicitor in Llwyngwril. Having lived in Llwyngwril for three years we know that this is a non issue. Do we contact our local Authority to get clarification that there is no issue.
It sounds as though you may have a conveyancing solicitor already. Are they able to advise? You must enquire of 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 health insurance to cover that same sickness)
I am looking for a flat up to £195,000 and found one round the corner in Llwyngwril I like with a park and transport links nearby, however it only has 49 remaining years left on the lease. There is not much else in Llwyngwril in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake purchasing a short lease?
Should you require a mortgage that many years may be problematic. Reduce the offer by the anticipated lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the existing proprietor has owned the premises for a minimum of 2 years you could request that they start the process of the extension and pass it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the current lease and have £0 ground rent by law. You should speak to your conveyancing lawyer regarding this matter.
I'm refinancing my current home to a buy to let mortgage with Skipton Building Society and intend to use the remaining equity towards further house.

I am 14 days into a leasehold purchase having been referred to solicitors by the local agent to handle our conveyancing in Llwyngwril. We are not happy. Could you help me find new solicitors?
They would need to be very poor in order to consider changing them. Has the mortgage been sent? In the event that it has you will need to inform them of the new contact details and get the mortgage documents are re-issued. Your conveyancer should be on the mortgage company panel to avoid supplemental expenses and frustration. That should be your first question of the new solicitors.

I am a negotiator for a reputable estate agency in Llwyngwril where we have witnessed a few leasehold sales derailed as a result of short leases. I have received contradictory information from local Llwyngwril conveyancing solicitors. Could you clarify whether the seller of a flat can start the lease extension process for the buyer?
As long as 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 proposed purchaser need not have to sit tight for 2 years to extend their lease. Both sets of lawyers will agree to form of assignment. The assignment has to be done before, or simultaneously with completion of the sale.
Alternatively, it may be possible to extend the lease informally by agreement with the landlord 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 buyer.

In the main the cost for major works tend not to be wrapped into the service charges, although some managing agents in Llwyngwril obliged tenants to pay into a reserve fund created for the specific purpose of building a fund for larger repairs or maintenance. Are there any major works on the horizon that will likely add a premium to the service charges? Where a Llwyngwril lease has less than 80 years it will impact the marketability of the property.
