Unfortunately I am unable to travel far from Towyn. What is the rationale as to why all Towyn lawyers are not on all bank panels?
Even though it may seem unfair for mortgage companies to limit who can represent them, from the public’s or conveyancer’s perspective, the other side of the coin is that lending institutions are increasingly anxious and feel it imperative to protect them from illegal activities. As a result of this concern mortgage companies are limiting their panel of approved conveyancing lawyers to a manageable size.
I am acquiring a property without a mortgage in Towyn. I have resided for the last dozen years in Towyn. Conveyancing searches are a lot of money. As I have knowledge of the area and road intimately must I have all the conveyancing searches?
In the absence of a mortgage, then all but one or two of the Towyn conveyancing searches are non-obligatory. Your conveyancer will 'advise', no-doubt strongly, that you should have searches done, but he is duty bound to take that path of guidance. Do consider; if you are intend to sell the house one day, it will be of importance to your future buyer what the searches disclose. There are plenty of instances where houses with apparent issues can still show up unexpected search results. A good conveyancing solicitor in Towyn will be able to give you some practical guidance here.
When can the exchange of contracts take place for domestic conveyancing in Towyn and am I required to be at the lawyers office?
If you are near to our conveyancing solicitors in Towyn you are welcome to attend to sign contracts. However, the law practices we work with offer countrywide coverage for conveyancing and give as equally diligent and professional a job for you when communicating with you by post or email. The executing of the contract is not when everything is set in stone. Signing on the dotted line simply enables the conveyancer to officially exchange at the appropriate time, which is ordinarily shortly after signing. The exchange process is is usually a five minute process, although where an extended "chain" is involved, since the process requires the relevant party's solicitor (not necessarily a conveyancing solicitor in Towyn)to be in the office available at the end of the phone to exchange contracts.

I have paid off my mortgage with Co-operative. I assume I don't need a Towyn property lawyer on the Co-operative panel to discharge the mortgage at the Land Registry. Am I right?
If you have finished paying off your Co-operative mortgage, they may send you evidence showing that you have paid it off. Alternatively they may notify the Land Registry directly. The Land Registry need to see this evidence before they will remove the Co-operative mortgage from the register. Co-operative, and any evidence they send you, will determine the action you need to take. In cases where no conveyancer is acting for you and you have paid off your mortgage:
- but are not moving to another property
- where Co-operative has sent the Land Registry the discharge electronically, and
- Co-operative has instructed the Land Registry to do so
Planning on purchasing a maisonette in Towyn. I have received an online quote from a licenced conveyancer, which states: "There will be no charge for dealing with the Lender if you are obtaining a mortgage". I take this to mean that there will be no additional fee if the solicitor is on the Principality conveyancing panel. I wanted to make sure it means there will be no additional fees for dealing with the mortgage.
They are simply saying that the cost for acting for the lender is included in the fee being quoted. It is worth you checking that the Towyn solicitor is on the Principality conveyancing panel.
