Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Ystalyfera

Unfortunately I am unable to travel far from Ystalyfera. What is the rationale as to why all Ystalyfera conveyancing practitioners are not on all lender panels?

As unjust as it may seem for lenders to restrict who can represent them, from the public’s or lawyer’s viewpoint, the the contrary view is that banks are increasingly anxious and regard it vital to protect them against mortgage fraud. As a result of this concern banks have restricted their panel of approved conveyancing lawyers to a manageable size.

I am buying my first flat in Ystalyfera with a mortgage from HSBC Bank. The developers would not budge the price so I negotiated £7000 of fixtures and fittings instead. The estate agent told me not inform my lawyer about the side-deal as it would impact my mortgage with HSBC Bank. Is this normal?.

All lenders require a Disclosure of Incentives Form from the builder of any new build, converted or renovated property, It is available online from the Lenders’ Handbook page on the CML website. CML form is completed and handed to the lender's surveyor when the inspection is done.

Lenders have different policies on incentives. Some accept none at all, cash or physical, while others will accept cash incentives up to 5%.

Hard to understand why the representative of a builder would be suggesting you withold information from a solicitor when all this will be clearly visible on forms the builder has to supply to its solicitor, the buyer's solicitor and the surveyor.

What are your top tips when it comes to choosing a Ystalyfera conveyancing firm to deal with our lease extension?

If you are instructing a solicitor for lease extension works (regardless if they are a Ystalyfera conveyancing practice) it is essential that he or she should be familiar with the legislation and specialises in this area of work. We suggest that you speak with two or three firms including non Ystalyfera conveyancing practices prior to instructing a firm. Where the conveyancing practice is ALEP accredited then that’s a bonus. The following questions might be helpful:

    If the firm is not ALEP accredited then why not? How familiar is the practice with lease extension legislation?

I acquired a ground floor flat in Ystalyfera, conveyancing was carried out February 1998. Can you let me have an estimate of the premium that my landlord can legally expect in return for granting a renewal of my lease? Comparable properties in Ystalyfera with an extended lease are worth £175,000. The average or mid-range amount of ground rent is £65 invoiced every year. The lease ends on 21st October 2083

With only 58 years remaining on your lease we estimate the premium for your lease extension to range between £23,800 and £27,400 plus professional fees.

The suggested premium range above a general guide to costs for renewing a lease, but we are not able to provide a more accurate figure in the absence of comprehensive investigations. You should not use the figures in a Notice of Claim or as an informal offer. There are no doubt other issues that need to be taken into account and you obviously should be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. Please do not take any other action placing reliance on this information without first seeking the advice of a professional.

What do I do if I am not happy with the conveyancer who conducted my conveyancing in Ystalyfera?

Occasionally the level of service you receive is not as you expect, and is is a fact of life that sometimes matters do not go as planned. However there is recourse if you were dissatisfied with your conveyancing in Ystalyfera. This varies from trying to resolve matters directly with them, through to reporting a conveyancing practitioner to their regulator. If you remain aggrieved you may consider enlisting the help of the Legal Ombudsman.
