I happen to be the single beneficiary of my late mum's will and I have everything in my name alone, including the house in Cilfynydd. The Cilfynydd property was put into my name in September. I want to move. I understand that there is a Mortgage Lenders six month 'rule', which means that my proprietorship will be regarded the same way as though I had purchased the property in September. Is the property unsalable for six months?
The Council of Mortgage Lenders’ handbook obliges solicitors to: "report to us immediately if the owner or registered proprietor has been registered for less than six months." Technically you might be impacted by that. How sensible a view banks take of it, depend on the lender as this requirement principally exists to capture the purchase and immediately sell or the quick reselling of properties.
Is there a list of Virgin Money panel solicitors in Cilfynydd on the Council of Mortgage Lender’s Website?
No. There is no such facility on the Council of Mortgage Lenders or Building Society Association sites. A small selection of lending institutions make their panel listings available on the web. If you are seeking to appoint a Cilfynydd lawyer on the Virgin Money please make the most of our facility.
We previously instructed conveyancers based in Cilfynydd on the HSBC solicitor approved list. They have just billed me a further charge for the legal aspects of the HSBC mortgage. Is this a supplemental conveyancing fee set by HSBC?
Provided it is contained in their Terms of Engagement or estimate then yes your property lawyer can levy a fee for this. This fee is not set by HSBC but by your Cilfynydd conveyancing practitioner. Plenty of firms on the HSBC panel will quote an ‘acting for lender’ fee but some practices incorporate it on their overall fee.
4 months have gone by since my purchase conveyancing in Cilfynydd took place. I have checked the Land Registry site which shows that I paid £175,000 when infact I paid £160,000. Why the discrepancy?
The price paid figure is taken from the application to register the purchase. It is the figure included in the Transfer (the legal deed which transfers the property from one person to the other) and referred to as the 'consideration' or purchase price. You can report an error in the price paid figure using the LR online form. In most cases errors result from typos so at first glance the figure. Do report it so they can double check and advise.
Due to the encouragement of my in-laws I had a survey completed on a property in Cilfynydd before retaining lawyers. I have been told that there is a flying freehold aspect to the property. The surveyor has said that some mortgage companies may not give a mortgage on such a premises.
It varies from the lender to lender. Lloyds has different instructions from Nationwide. If you contact us we can investigate further via the appropriate mortgage company. If you lender is happy to lend one our lawyers can help as they are used to dealing with flying freeholds in Cilfynydd. Conveyancing may be slightly more expensive based on your lender's requirements.

We're first time buyers - agreed a price, but the selling agent has warned us that the seller will only move forward if we use the agent's chosen solicitors as they need a ‘quick sale’. Our preferred option is to instruct a high street solicitor with experience of conveyancing in Cilfynydd
It is highly unlikely the owners are driving this. Should the vendor want ‘a quick sale', taking such a hostile approach to a motivated purchaser is likely to cause more damage than good. Bypass the agents and go straight to the sellers and make the point that (a)you are keen to buy (b)you are excited to move forward, with mortgage lined up © you do not need to sell (d) you intend to proceed fast (e)but you intend to instruct your preferred Cilfynydd conveyancing firm - as opposed tothose that will provide the estate agent a referral fee or meet his conveyancing thresholds pre-set by corporate headquarters.
