This question may be naive but I am unexperienced as FTB of a two bedroom flat in Meliden. Do I pick up the keys to the house on completion from my lawyer? If this is the case, I will instruct a local conveyancing solicitor in Meliden?
There is no need to visit the lawyers office on the day of completion. Conveyancing lawyers for you will arrange to send the completion advance to the vendor’s lawyers, and once they have received this, you will be able to pick up the keys from the Estate Agents and start moving into the property. This tends to happen early afternoon.
The formalities of my remortgage has taken place for my property in Meliden. Conveyancing was a necessary evil but I would like to complain about the lender. How does one go about formally complaining?
Most lenders have complaints procedures. Your first port of call should be one of the lender’s branches or the Customer Services Department at head office. We understand that complaints to a lender are sorted out effectively and efficiently. However if you are not satisfied that the matter is not resolved you can write to Financial Ombudsman Service who will take matters further.
It is not clear whether my lender requires a lease extension. I have called my Meliden bank branch on numerous occasions and was told they are content with the situation and they will lend. My Meliden conveyancing solicitor - who is on the mortgage company conveyancing panel- telephoned and was told they will not lend in accordance with their specific requirements. Who do I believe?
Your conveyancer must follow the CML Handbook section two specifications for your lender. Unless your lawyer obtains specific confirmation in writing that the bank will go ahead, your lawyer has no choice but to refrain from exchanging contract and committing you to the purchase. We would suggest that you ask the mortgage company to contact your lawyer in writing confirming that they will accept the number of years left on the lease.

I have recently realised that I have Sixty One years unexpired on my lease in Meliden. I now want to get lease extension but my landlord is missing. What are my options?
On the basis that you qualify, under the Leasehold Reform, Housing and Urban Development Act 1993 you can submit an application to the County Court for an order to dispense with the service of the initial notice. This will mean that your lease can be lengthened by the magistrate. You will be obliged to demonstrate that you or your lawyers have done all that could be expected to find the lessor. In some cases a specialist may be useful to carry out a search and prepare a report which can be accepted by the court as proof that the landlord can not be located. It is wise to seek advice from a conveyancer both on devolving into the landlord’s absence and the application to the County Court overseeing Meliden.

I'm remortgaging a house in Meliden. I can find my conveyancer's company on the CLC list, but I can't see my conveyancer's name on the list. Is this a big problem?
Not every individual in the company must be listed by the regulator. Provided there is someone qualified to 'oversee' the conveyancing, the actual day-to-day activity can be undertaken by unlicensed staff.
