We are buying a flat and require a conveyancing solicitor in Llantwit Major who is on the Nationwide approved panel. Could you point me in the right direction as regards a solicitor?
Our service is limited to being a directory service for firms who wish to be listed as being on the approved conveyancing panel for Nationwide . We don't recommend any particular firms conducting conveyancing in Llantwit Major.
We are due to move home in September. Does my conveyancing solicitor call the removal company on the day of completion. On a separate note, can you put forward a removal company in Llantwit Major. Conveyancing lawyer was found prior to coming across your site.
On the day of completion you can collect the house keys from the property agent however this can only happen when the sellers solicitors confirm to the agent that they acknowledge receipt of the completion payment and the keys can be collected. After that you will need to tell the removal company that they can start moving you in. We are not in a position to suggest a specific removal organisation but can help you choose a conveyancing in Llantwit Major or a legal practice that specialises in conveyancing in Llantwit Major.
I recently had an offer accepted on a house in Llantwit Major. My financial adviser recommended their conveyancers. I paid an on account payment of £225. A few days later, the property lawyer called me sheepishly admitting that they were not on the Santander conveyancing panel. Am I right in thinking that I should be due a refund?
You should be able to recover this from the law firm if they were not on the Santander panel. They should have asked at the outset which lender you were obtaining a mortgage with. An important lesson to readers of this site is to check that the lawyers are on the appropriate lender panel.
After shopping around on the internet I have found a Llantwit Major conveyancer having made sure that they are on the Leeds Building Society conveyancing panel. Does my lawyer arrange the survey of the property?
Leeds Building Society will need an independent valuation of the property. Your lawyer will not arrange this. Usually Leeds Building Society will appoint their own surveyor to do this, and you will have to pay for it. Remember that this is a valuation for mortgage purposes and not a survey. Your conveyancer will not organise the survey but they may be able to put you in touch with a local one that they recommend. RICS offers a find a surveyor service (just google it) where you can search for a qualified surveyor by your Llantwit Major postcode. As you are getting a mortgage with Leeds Building Society, you could contact them to see if they have a list of approved surveyors in Llantwit Major.
It has been 2 months following my purchase conveyancing in Llantwit Major concluded. I have checked the Land Registry site which shows that I paid £150,000 when infact I paid £170,000. 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 asset 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.
I decided to have a survey completed on a property in Llantwit Major prior to retaining solicitors. I have been informed that there is a flying freehold aspect to the house. My surveyor has said that some lenders may refuse to grant a loan on such a property.

If you lender is happy to lend one our lawyers can assist as they are used to dealing with flying freeholds in Llantwit Major. Conveyancing may be slightly more expensive based on your lender's requirements.
In what way does the Landlord & Tenant Act 1954 impact my business offices in Llantwit Major and how can you help?
The 1954 Act affords security of tenure to business tenants, giving them the right to make a request to court for a continuation of occupancy when the lease reaches an end. There are certain specified grounds that a landlord can refuse a lease renewal and the rules are complicated. We are happy to direct you to commercial conveyancing firms who use the act for protection and help with commercial conveyancing in Llantwit Major
My husband and I are new on the property ladder - had an offer accepted, but the agent told us that the owners will only issue a contract if we instruct the agent's chosen solicitors as they need a ‘quick sale’. My instinct tells me that we should use a local conveyancer with experience of conveyancing in Llantwit Major
We suspect that the seller is unaware of this requirement. If they desire ‘a quick sale', alienating a serious buyer is counter productive. Speak to the owners direct and make the point that (a)you are keen to buy (b)you are ready to progress, with mortgage lined up © you are unencumbered (d) you intend to proceed fast (e)but you will continue to appoint your own,trusted Llantwit Major conveyancing lawyers - not the ones that will provide the negotiator at the agency a introducer fee or achieve conveyancing figures demanded by HQ.
