Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Treforest

Why do I have to pay up front for my conveyancing in Treforest?

If you are buying a property in Treforest your solicitor will request that you place them with monies to cover the search fees. This will be the total of the cost of the conveyancing searches. When the down payment is payable against the total price then this should be needed immediately before contracts are exchanged. The closing balance that is due should be transferred shortly before completion.

It is unclear whether my bank obliges me to make sure the lease term for the flat is extended prior to the completion date. I have called into my local Treforest building society branch on a couple of occasions and was reassured it wasn't a problem and they would lend. My Treforest conveyancing solicitor - who is on the lender conveyancing panel- called to say that they refuse to lend in accordance with their UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook minimum lease term requirements. I simply don't know who is right.

Your conveyancer must follow the Council of Mortgage Lenders’ Handbook Part 2 specifications for your bank. Unless your lawyer obtains specific confirmation in writing that the mortgage company will go ahead, your lawyer has no choice but to refrain from exchanging contract and committing you to the purchase. We would suggest that you ask the bank to contact your lawyer in writing confirming that they will accept the number of years left on the lease.

I am selling my apartment. I had a double glazing fitted in April 2010, but did not receive a FENSA certificate or Building Regulation Certificate. My buyer's mortgage company, Skipton are being difficult. The Treforest solicitor who is on the Skipton conveyancing panel is saying indemnity insurance will be fine but Skipton are requiring a building regulation certificate. Why do Skipton have a conveyancing panel if they don't accept advice from them?

It is probably the case that Skipton have referred the matter to their valuer. The reason why Skipton may not want to accept indemnity insurance is because it does not give them any reassurance that the double glazing was correctly and safely installed. The indemnity insurance merely protects against enforcement action which is very unlikely anyway.

Bank of Ireland have agreed my mortgage in principle, my offer on a house in Treforest has been agreed to, what are the next steps?

The property agent will wish to be advised as to your conveyancing practitioner's details (ensure that the conveyancers are on the bank’s approved list). Contact Bank of Ireland or your financial adviser and finalise any outstanding documentation. Bank of Ireland will instruct a valuer who will get in contact with the selling agent or owners to book an appointment. Once carried out (assuming no problems) it takes on average a week for the mortgage offer to be issued. Bank of Ireland will issue the offer to you and your lawyers. The transaction will then take it’s course according the nature and complexity of the conveyancing in Treforest.

    Will control of the Management Company (if any) be handed over to purchasers on completion of the last sale or earlier? Will the freehold then be transferred for a nominal consideration (not exceeding £100) to the Management Company? 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. Forfeiture - bankruptcy or liquidation must not apply under this provision. The Landlord must covenant to assume the management if the Management Company goes into liquidation or otherwise defaults in running the management scheme.

I decided to have a survey done on a house in Treforest ahead of appointing solicitors. I have been informed that there is a flying freehold element to the house. The surveyor has said that some mortgage companies will not issue a loan on this type of home.

Is it best to use a Treforest conveyancing solicitor who is local to the property I am purchasing? I have an old university friend who can execute the legal work however they are based a couple of hundredkilometers away.

The primary upside of using a local Treforest conveyancing firm is that you can pop in to execute documents, deliver your identification documents and pester them if necessary. They will also have local insight which is a bonus. That being said nothing is more important than finding someone that will do a good and efficient job. If other friends have instructed your friend and they were impressed that should trump using an unfamiliar Treforest conveyancing solicitor solely due to them being based in the area.
