I am planning to move home in November. Does my conveyancing solicitor communicate with the removal company on the completion day. On a separate note, can you put forward a removal company in Mumbles. Conveyancing lawyer was organised before I stumbled across this site.

On the day of completion you can pick up the keys from the property agent but this can only occur when the vendors solicitors advise the agent that they acknowledge receipt of the completion payment and the keys can be passed over. After that you can inform the removal company that they can start moving you in. As a matter of policy we do not suggest a specific removal organisation but can assist you in finding a residential property solicitor in Mumbles or a legal practice that specialises in conveyancing in Mumbles.

We have agreed to purchase a house in Mumbles. A rare aspect is that the roof has a solar panel. Solicitors conducting should look into this right? Will my lender UBS be concerned?

Given that you are obtaining a mortgage with UBS your lawyer must follow the conveyancing instructions set out in Part 2 of UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook for UBS. The CML Handbook includes minimum provisions for solar panel roof-space leases, and solicitors are required to report to UBS where a lease does not meet these requirements. The conditions relate to the installation of panels on properties countrywide and is not restricted to Mumbles.

I recently had an offer accepted on an apartment in Mumbles. My mortgage broker recommended their conveyancers. I paid an on account payment of £150. Not long after, the conveyancer called me embarrassingly acknowledging that they were not on the Santander conveyancing panel. Am I right in thinking that I should be due a refund?

You should be able to recover this from the law firm if they were not on the Santander panel. They should have asked at the outset which lender you were obtaining a mortgage with. An important lesson to readers of this site is to check that the lawyers are on the appropriate lender panel.

I am purchasing a new build house in Mumbles with the aid of help to buy. The sellers would not move on the amount so I negotiated 6k of additionals instead. The estate agent suggested that I not inform my lawyer about the side-deal as it could affect my mortgage with the lender. Do I keep my lawyer in the dark?.

All lenders require a Disclosure of Incentives Form from the developer of any new build, converted or renovated property, It is available online from the Lenders’ Handbook page on the CML website. CML form is completed and handed to the lender's surveyor when the inspection is done.

Lenders have different policies on incentives. Some accept none at all, cash or physical, while others will accept cash incentives up to 5%.

Hard to understand why the representative of a builder would be suggesting you withold information from a solicitor when all this will be clearly visible on forms the builder has to supply to its solicitor, the buyer's solicitor and the surveyor.

I am looking for a flat up to £305k and found one near me in Mumbles I like with a park and railway links nearby, the downside is that it's only got 52 remaining years left on the lease. There is not much else in Mumbles suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake purchasing a lease with such few years left?

If you require a mortgage the shortness of the lease may be a potential deal breaker. Discount the price by the amount the lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the current proprietor has owned the premises for at least 2 years you may request that they commence the lease extension formalities and then assign it to you. You can add 90 years to the current lease term and have £0 ground rent by law. You should speak to your conveyancing solicitor concerning this matter.

I'm converting the mortgage on my existing house to a BTL mortgage with Bank of Scotland and intend to use the remaining equity as a down payment on further house. The area we are talking about is Mumbles. Will your conveyancers be able to act for the two mortgage companies and tie in the two deals?

Do use our search tool on this site to check that the conveyancers are on the relevant lender panels. Having checked that they are the solicitor will be able to simultaneously deal with the two conveyancing matters but you should have a chat with you lawyer and make apparent your desired outcome and requirements.

I am a fortnight into a freehold purchase having been recommend to conveyancers by the estate agent to perform conveyancing in Mumbles. We are not happy. Can you help me find new lawyers?

A lawyer would need to be really bad in order to consider diss instructing them. Has your mortgage been issued? If so you will need to make them aware of the replacement conveyancer and get the mortgage documents are re-sent. Your solicitor ideally should be on the lenders approved list to avoid added charges and frustration. That should be your starting point. The search tool will help you find a lender approved solicitor for your home move in Mumbles
