My uncle passed away six months ago and as sole heir and executor I was left the property in Aberaeron. The house had a small mortgage remaining of approximately £8000. I want to transfer the title deeds into my name whilst I re-mortgage to Aldermore, pay off the mortgage. Is this allowed?
If you plan to refinance then Aldermore will require that you use a conveyancer on the Aldermore conveyancing panel. Here is link to the Land Registry online guidance around what to do when a property owner dies. This will help you to understand the registration process behind changing the details re the registered title. in your case it would appear that you are effectively purchasing the property from the estate. Your Aldermore conveyancing panel solicitor pays the new mortgage money into the estate, the estate pays off the old mortgage, the charge is released and you become the owner and the Aldermore mortgage is registered as a charge at the Land Registry.

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. Where there is an Undertaking being granted there is the risk of forfeiture of the Headlease subject to relief if one or more of the Underlessees are willing to accept the original Head Lessee’s obligations as otherwise relief will be denied to the Underlessees. The only alternatives are the Head Lessor agreeing not to forfeit the Headlease or the Head Lessee guaranteeing to the Underlessees that it will not be in breach of the Headlease. 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. The Lease must contain a provision on behalf of the Vendor to pay the service charges in respect of unoccupied units in order to ensure that all services can be provided.
Should I be suspicious about estate agents that I am dealing with are suggesting a nationwide conveyancing firm rather than a High Street Aberaeron conveyancing practice?
As is the case with lots of professional services, often input from connections can be worth their weight in gold. Yet there are numerous people with a vested interest in a conveyancing transaction; estate agents, financial adviser and mortgage companies might all suggest lawyers to use. On occasion the conveyancers might be known to one of the organisations as being good in their field, but occasionally there behind the scenes financial incentive behind the endorsement. You have the right to select your preferred conveyancer. Don't forget that many lenders operate an approved list of lawyers you are obliged to use for the mortgage related work in your home move.
Having had my offer accepted I require leasehold conveyancing in Aberaeron. Before I get started I want to be sure as to the unexpired term of the lease.
Assuming the lease is recorded at the land registry - and most are in Aberaeron - then the leasehold title will always include the short particulars of the lease, namely the date; the term; and the original parties. From a conveyancing perspective such details then enable any prospective buyer and lender to confirm that any lease they are looking at is the one relevant to that title. For any other purpose, such as confirming how long the term was granted for and calculating what is left, then the register should be sufficient on it's own.

The figure that we have given is a general guide to costs for renewing a lease, but we are not able to supply a more accurate figure without more comprehensive due diligence. Do not use the figures in a Notice of Claim or as an informal offer.

I am contemplating choosing a web based conveyancing practitioner ahead of a Aberaeron conveyancing practice. Should I ‘stay local’?
Advantages do exist in being able to pop in to a local Aberaeron conveyancing solicitor for example

When analysing estimates, look out for hidden extras. The majority decent Aberaeron high street solicitors give an all-inclusive price. Often online companies appear to offer discounted prices, but have hidden 'extras' in the in the terms and conditions.
