We are soon to exchange on the purchase of a house in Margam but as a consequence of wreckage from the recent storms I have was able negotiate reparation from the seller of £2k taking the form of a adjustment in the price. I had intended this to be dealt with as part of amending the contract but Leeds Building Society are not allowing this. Why were they involved?
The lawyer that is on the Leeds Building Society approved list is obliged to inform Leeds Building Society of any amendments to the purchase price. If you prohibit your conveyancing practitioner to notify the reduction to Leeds Building Society then they would have to discontinue acting for you. In addition, Leeds Building Society and you would have to appoint a new conveyancing practitioner for your conveyancing in Margam.
Do the Building Society Association intend to launch a search tool with a view to list firms on the Loughborough BS conveyancing panel for instance in Margam?
We would not expect to be advised of any plans on the part of the BSA to promote such a search facility.
If you had a top tip for choosing a conveyancing solicitor in Margam what would it be?
Do not opt for the cheapest Margam conveyancing quote. You really do get what you pay for when it comes to property lawyers. 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.
How can we tell if a Margam conveyancing solicitor on the Kent Reliance panel is any good?

We would always advocate that you speak with the lawyer conducting your conveyancing.
