Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Penyffordd

Last April we completed a house move in Penyffordd. We have noticed several issues with the house which we consider were omitted in the conveyancing searches. Do we have any recourse? What searches should? have been conducted as part of conveyancing in Penyffordd?

It is not clear from the question as to the nature of the problems and if they are specific to conveyancing in Penyffordd. Conveyancing searches and investigations undertaken as part of the buying process are supposed to help avoid problems. As part of the legal transfer of property, a seller completes a document called a SPIF. If the information is incorrect, you could possibly take legal action against the owner for any losses that you have suffered. The survey should have identified any problems with the structure of the property. Assuming a detailed survey was carried out and the issues were not identified, you may have a claim against the surveyor. However, if you did not have a full survey, you may be responsible for fixing any defects that have now been noted. We would always encourage buyers to take every possible step to ensure they are completely aware of the condition of a property before purchase regardless of whether they are buying in Penyffordd.

Why is leasehold purchase conveyancing in Penyffordd is more expensive?

The conveyancing charges for a leasehold property in Penyffordd is often greater when contrasted to a freehold residence. This is because there is an amount of supplemental time necessary in dealing with the freeholder and management company to obtain information about whether the rent and maintenance fee have been cleared and whether there are any major works due in the near future on repairs or maintenance of the block.

Our mortgage company has suggested a law firm on their panel based in Penyffordd but I would rather choose a conveyancing lawyer in Penyffordd or nearer to where I live. Are you able to help?

The minority of Penyffordd conveyancing practitioners are approved and listed on all banks conveyancing panel. Please make use of our search tool to choose a Penyffordd conveyancing conveyancer on the on the bank panel.

When it comes to mortgage companies such as Principality, do Penyffordd conveyancing practitioners have to pay a yearly amount to be on the list of approved solicitors?

We are unaware of any lender fees to be on their panel, although some do charge an administration charge to deal with the processing of the conveyancing panel application.

is it true that all Penyffordd solicitor practices on the Yorkshire BS conveyancing panel are governed by the SRA?

As a firm of solicitors, in order to be on the Yorkshire BS approved list of solicitors they would need to be regulated by the Solicitors Regulatory Authority. Many banks do list licenced conveyancers on their panel and in that case the practice would be overseen by the Council of Licensed Conveyancers.

I am due to exchange contracts on my apartment. I had a double glazing fitted in October 2007, but did not receive a FENSA certificate or Building Regulation Certificate. My purchaser’s lender, Coventry BS are being pedantic. The Penyffordd solicitor who is on the Coventry BS conveyancing panel is recommending indemnity insurance as a solution but Coventry BS are insisting on a building regulation certificate. Why do Coventry BS have a conveyancing panel if they don't accept advice from them?

It is probably the case that Coventry BS have referred the matter to their valuer. The reason why Coventry BS may not want to accept indemnity insurance is because it does not give them any reassurance that the double glazing was correctly and safely installed. The indemnity insurance merely protects against enforcement action which is very unlikely anyway.

How does conveyancing in Penyffordd differ for new build properties?

Most buyers of new build premises in Penyffordd contact us having been asked by the seller to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the premises is completed. This is because new home sellers in Penyffordd tend to acquire the real estate, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct property lawyers as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are accustomed to new build conveyancing in Penyffordd or who has acted in the same development.

I opted to have a survey carried out on a property in Penyffordd ahead of instructing conveyancers. I have been told that there is a flying freehold overhang to the house. Our surveyor advised that some banks will not give a loan on this type of premises.

It varies from the lender to lender. Santander has different requirements from Nationwide. If you e-mail us we can check with the appropriate mortgage company. If you lender is happy to lend one our lawyers can help as they are used to dealing with flying freeholds in Penyffordd. Conveyancing can be more complicated and therefore you should check with your conveyancing solicitor in Penyffordd to see if the conveyancing costs will increase in light of this.
