AssumingI were to acquire a freehold housein Radyr mortgage fee and have no survey and no local authority searches how much would I expect to have to pay for conveyancing in Radyr?
The only reduction in fees you would achieve is the costs for searches. The property lawyer still got to do everything else - money laundering, liaising with your vendors property lawyer, SDLT submission, register the ownership etc. You might save a bit for them not having to register a charge but it won't be meaningful.
Can your site be used to recommend a Conveyancing solicitor in Radyr even if I’m not purchasing or disposing of a house, for instance where I intend to acquire an office in Radyr with a loan from Norwich and Peterborough Building Society?

You will need to speak with the solicitors directly to establish if they can also act for Norwich and Peterborough Building Society
I am helping my aunt sell her property in Radyr. Does the conveyancing solicitor commission an EPC or it is for the owner to see to?
After the abolition of Home Information Packs, EPC’s remained a required component of moving property. An energy assessment needs to be commissioned in advance of the property being marketed. It is not something that lawyers normally organise. Where you are instructing a Radyr conveyancing practitioner they might be willing to arrange energy assessments given their relationships with long established Radyr providers
Is there a list of Kent Reliance panel conveyancers in Radyr on the Building Society Association’s Website?
Unfortunately not yet. There is no such facility on the CML or Building Society Association sites. Very few lending institutions make their panel listings viewable over the internet. If you are looking for a Radyr property lawyer on the Kent Reliance please make the most of our facility.
I am expecting a OIP from Santander this week so we know how much we could potentially offer as otherwise we are dependent on web based calculators (which aren't taking into account credit checks etc). Do Santander recommend any Radyr solicitors on the Santander conveyancing panel, or is it better to find our own lawyer?
You will need to appoint Radyr solicitors independently although you'll need to choose one on the Santander conveyancing panel. The solicitor represents both you and Santander through the process.
Do I need to be wary about estate agents that I am dealing with are recommending a national conveyancing firm as opposed to a High Street Radyr conveyancing practice?
As with lots of professional services, often input from relatives can be extremely useful or valuable. Yet there are numerous parties with a vested interest in a conveyancing transaction; estate agents, financial adviser and mortgage companies may suggest lawyers to choose. On occasion these conveyancers might be known to one of the organisations as experts in their field, but occasionally there is an underlying commercial relationship behind the recommendation. You are at liberty to select your preferred lawyer. Don't forget that most mortgage providers have an approved list of solicitors you are obliged to use for the mortgage aspect of your conveyancing.
Should I appoint a Radyr conveyancing lawyer based in the location that I am purchasing? We have a good friend who can perform the conveyancing however his firm is located over three hundred kilometers away.
The benefit of a local Radyr conveyancing practice is that you can drop in to execute documents, hand in your ID and apply pressure on them if necessary. Having local Radyr know how is a plus. That being said it's more important to get someone that will pull out all the stops for you. If other friends have used your friend and in the main were happy that must outweigh using an unfamiliar Radyr conveyancing lawyer just because they are based in the area.
When it comes to my conveyancing in Radyr should I be paying VAT on the following: (1) Land reg fee on purchase (2) Pre - completion search fee (3) SDLT E submission on purchase (4) Bank TT fee
(1) Land reg fee on purchase - No (2) Pre - completion search fees -No, (such conveyancing searches are HMLR ones and means £4 and possibly £2 bankruptcy per name on your mortgage) (3) SDLT E submission on your purchase - There is no VAT on Stamp Duty. However if the firm is charging a stamp duty e-submission fee as part of their services - some Radyr conveyancers do - that will incur VAT(4) Bank transfer fee - Yes it is for the solicitor's time in submitting the funds this way.
