As far as conveyancing in Solva is concerned, registration is no quicker or slower than anywhere else in the country.

Currently approximately three quarters of such applications are fully dealt with in less than three weeks but occasionally there can be protracted delays. Historically registration occurs once the purchaser is living at the premises so an expedited registration is not always primary concern yet where it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your solicitor must communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for the application to be prioritised.

As with lots of service providers, often recommendations from relatives can be extremely useful or valuable. But there are many players in a conveyancing deal; estate agents, mortgage brokers and banks might all put forward solicitors to use. On occasion the lawyers might be known to one of the organisations as one of the best in their field, but occasionally there behind the scenes financial incentive behind the endorsement. You have the discretion to choose your own lawyer. Don't forget that the majority of mortgage providers specify a panel list of conveyancers you have to use for the lender aspect of your home move.
