We were just about to sign contracts for a freehold house in Morriston. We encountered a stumbling block. The mortgage offer with Clydesdale runs out on 1/10/2026 but the owners are insisting on a completion date of 5/10/2026. Can one prolong the loan expiry date?

As a novice what is the most important piece of guidance you can impart about purchase conveyancing in Morriston?
You may not hear this from too many lawyers but conveyancing in Morriston or throughout Swansea is often a confrontational process. In other words, when it comes to conveyancing there is lots of room for friction between you and others involved in the transaction. For instance, the vendor, estate agent and on occasion the lender. Choosing a lawyer for your conveyancing in Morriston should not be taken lightly as your conveyancer is your adviser, and is the ONLY party in the process whose responsibility is to look after your best interests and to keep you safe.
We are witnessing a distinct ongoing adversarial element to conveyancing- someone must be blamed for the process taking so long. We recommend that you should always trust your conveyancer ahead of the other parties in the home moving process.

2 months have gone by following my purchase conveyancing in Morriston completed. I have checked the Land Registry website which shows that I paid £150,000 when infact I paid £170,000. Why the discrepancy?
The price paid figure is taken from the application to register the purchase. It is the figure included in the Transfer (the legal deed which transfers the residence from one person to the other) and referred to as the 'consideration' or purchase price. You can report an error in the price paid figure using the LR online form. In most cases errors result from typos so at first glance the figure. Do report it so they can double check and advise.
