Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Aberdovey

Why would one instruct a Aberdovey conveyancing firm given that internet based conveyancers are cheap by comparison?

Its a good idea to compare conveyancing costs in Aberdovey and you should seek a competitive fee calculation but don’t become consumed with looking for the cheapest Aberdovey conveyancer. Locating the right conveyancer can be the distinction between a seamless and a stressful home move. It is important that you ensure that you have expert guidance from an experienced conveyancer. An e-mail can never replace a telephone call and can never replicate a one to one meeting.

My solicitor has identified a defect with the lease for the apartment we are purchasing in Aberdovey. The other side have suggested defective title insurance as a workaround. We are content with insurance and will cover the costs. Our conveyancer says that he must ensure that the lender is content with this solution. Who is the client here, us or the lender?

The short answer to your last question is that, notwithstanding the potential for a conflict of interest, you and the mortgage company are the client. Your solicitor must comply with the UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook conditions. The UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook conditions require your lawyer to disclose issues such as defects with the lease so that the bank can be afforded the opportunity to check with their valuer as to the extent that the value of the property is affected. Should you refuse to allow your lawyer to make the appropriate notification then your property lawyer will have no choice but to discontinue acting for you.

I purchased a freehold property in Aberdovey but still pay rent, why is this and what is this?

It’s unusual for properties in Aberdovey and has limited impact for conveyancing in Aberdovey but some freehold properties in England (particularly common in North West England) pay an annual sum known as a Chief Rent or a Rentcharge to a third party who has no other legal interest in the land.

Rentcharge payments are usually between £2.00 and £5.00 per year. Rentcharges date back hundreds of years, but the Rent Charge Act 1977 barred the generation of fresh rentcharges from 1977 onwards.

Previous rentcharges can now be extinguished by making a lump sum payment under the Act. Any rentcharges that are still in existence in 2037 will be dispensed with completely.

Have completed on a a terraced house in Aberdovey , how long should it take for the Land Registry to register my ownership? My Aberdovey conveyancing solicitor has been painfully slow, so I want to be certain that my purchase is registered.

There is nothing unique about conveyancing in Aberdovey registration formalities. Rather than based on location, timescales can adjust depending on the party submitting the application, whether there are errors and if the Land registry communicate with any interested parties. As of today roughly three quarters of submission are fully addressed in less than three weeks but some can be subject to longer delays. Historically registration takes place once the new owner has moved in to the property therefore post completion formalities is not always an essential issue yet where it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your conveyancer can communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for the application to be prioritised.

The estate agent has sent us the confirmation of our purchase of a new build apartment in Aberdovey. Conveyancing is a frightening process at the best of times but I have never purchased a new build flat before. What sort of enquires would be asked in new build conveyancing.

Here are examples of a selection of leasehold new build questions that you can expect your new-build leasehold conveyancing in Aberdovey

    Please provide evidence that the form of Lease proposed has been approved by the Land Registry. 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. Please confirm the Lease plans are architect prepared. Will control of the Management Company (if any) be handed over to purchasers on completion of the last sale or earlier? There must be mutual enforceability of lessee’s covenants.

I have been on the look out for a flat up to £235,500 and found one close by in Aberdovey I like with amenity areas and railway links in the vicinity, however it's only got 52 remaining years left on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Aberdovey suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake purchasing a lease with such few years left?

If you need a mortgage the remaining unexpired lease term will be problematic. Discount the price by the amount the lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the current owner has owned the premises for at least twenty four months you can ask them to start the process of the extension and pass it to you. You can add 90 years to the existing lease and have £0 ground rent by law. You should consult your conveyancing lawyer about this matter.
