Please help. My Ponthir conveyancer is assuring me that he has toorder Ponthir conveyancing searches due to the fact thatthe firm are on the Virgin Moneyapproved lawyer panel. These Ponthir searches cost a lot of money can this be avoided?
You have limited options available to you. Given that you are taking out a loan with a lender your conveyancing practitioner has to comply with their conditions as set out in their version of the CML Conveyancing Handbook. Your conveyancing practitioner would have previously signed the Terms and Conditions of your bank’s conveyancing panel appointment which obliges them to comply with the CML Handbook specifications . Even if you were a cash buyer you would be ill advised not to carry out Ponthir conveyancing searches.
At what point can the exchange of contracts occur in purchase conveyancing in Ponthir and do I need to attend the conveyancers office?
Where you are local to one of the conveyancing solicitors in Ponthir you are invited in to sign the paperwork. However, the firms we recommend supply countrywide coverage for conveyancing and give just as comprehensive and professional a job for you when dealing with you digitally. The signing of the contract is not the point of no return. Signing on the dotted line simply enables the conveyancer to address the formalities at the appropriate time, which is ordinarily shortly after signing. The procedure is is usually a five minute process, although where a lengthy "chain" is in the mix, since the process requires the relevant party's solicitor (not necessarily a conveyancing solicitor in Ponthir)to be in the office at the appropriate time.
Me and my partner are purchasing a flat in Ponthir. I might seem paranoid but how we can trust a conveyancer? At some point we have to deposit funds into their account. What protection do we have from them run away with our money?

I am aiming to move property in August. Will my conveyancing solicitor update the removal company on the day of completion. Incidentally, can you recommend a removal company in Ponthir. Conveyancing lawyer was organised before I stumbled across your website.
On the afternoon of completion you can pick up the keys from your estate agent however this should only be done after the sellers conveyancers advise the agent that the monies to complete are in and the keys can be passed over. You will need to inform the removal men that you are ready to move in. As a matter of policy we do not recommend a specific removal company but can assist you in choosing a conveyancing in Ponthir or a firm that specialises in conveyancing in Ponthir.
The formalities of my remortgage has taken place for my property in Ponthir. Conveyancing was satisfactory but I feel I should register my dissatisfaction about the lender. How do I make a complaint?
Most banks and building societies have complaints procedures. Your first point of contact should be one of the lender’s branches or the Customer Care Department at head office. Ordinarily 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.
I am purchasing a new build house in Ponthir with the aid of help to buy. The sellers refused to budge the amount so I negotiated 6k of fixtures and fittings instead. The house builders rep told me not disclose to my solicitor about the extras as it could affect my mortgage with Bank of Ireland. Should I keep quiet?.
All lenders require a Disclosure of Incentives Form from the builder 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.
