My partner and I have lately purchased a property in Rhymney. We have since encountered a number of problems with the house which we believe were omitted in the conveyancing searches. What action can we take? What searches should? have been ordered as part of conveyancing in Rhymney?
The query is vague as to the nature of the problems and if they are relate to conveyancing in Rhymney. Conveyancing searches and investigations initiated as part of the legal transfer of property are designed to help avoid problems. As part of the process, the vendor completes a form called a Seller’s Property Information Form. If the information is inaccurate, then you may have a claim 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 Rhymney.
What will a local search tell me about the house my wife and I buying in Rhymney?
Rhymney conveyancing often commences with the applying for local authority searches directly from your local Authority or via a personal search company for instance Searchflow The local search plays an important role in most Rhymney conveyancing purchase; that is if you wish to avoid any nasty surprises after you move into your property. The search should provide information on, amongst other things, details on planning applications applicable to the property (whether granted or refused), building control history, any enforcement action, restrictions on permitted development, nearby road schemes, contaminated land and radon gas; in all a total of 13 subject headings.
Have completed on a a terraced house in Rhymney , What is the estimated time for the Land Registry to deal with the formalities evidencing my ownership? My Rhymney conveyancing solicitor works at snail pace, so I want to be certain that my purchase is registered.
As far as conveyancing in Rhymney is concerned, registration is no faster or slower than anywhere else in the country. Rather than based on location, timescales can differ according to who lodges the application, whether there are errors and whether the Land registry have to notify any 3rd parties. As of today roughly 80% of such applications are fully dealt with in less than three weeks but some can be subject to protracted delays. Historically registration occurs after the purchaser has moved in to the premises therefore 'speed' is not usually primary concern yet where there is a degree of urgency associated with the registration then you or your solicitor must communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for the application to be prioritised.

Where service of notices and proceedings can be at the property demised please confirm that this can be amended to include simultaneous services at the Lessees’ solicitors’ offices where the Lessee from time to time is not resident in the UK - such solicitors may be varied by notice in writing to the Landlord from time to time but otherwise will be as previously specified.

I decided to have a survey carried out on a house in Rhymney ahead of appointing conveyancers. I have been told that there is a flying freehold aspect to the property. The surveyor advised that some mortgage companies may not grant a loan on such a premises.

My husband and I are FTB’s - agreed a price, yet the selling agent told us that the vendor will only go ahead if we appoint the agent's chosen conveyancers as they want a ‘quick sale’. My instinct tells me that we should use a high street conveyancer accustomed to conveyancing in Rhymney
It is improbable the owners are driving this. Should the vendor want ‘a quick sale', turning down a genuine purchaser is likely to cause more damage than good. Speak to the vendors direct and make sure they understand (a)you are serious buyers (b)you are ready to go, with mortgage lined up © you do not need to sell (d) you wish to move quickly (e)but you intend to instruct your own,trusted Rhymney conveyancing lawyers - rather thanthe ones that will provide the estate agent a referral fee or hit his conveyancing thresholds set by corporate headquarters.
