Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Barmouth

I am acquiring a house mortgage free in Barmouth. I have lived for the previous Seventeen years in Barmouth. Conveyancing searches are a lot of money. As I know the area and road very well should I not bother getting the solicitor to do all the conveyancing searches?

In the absence of a home loan, then almost all of the Barmouth conveyancing searches are non-obligatory. Your conveyancer will ’encourage you, no-doubt strongly, that you should have searches done, but he is duty bound to do this. Do bear in mind; if you are going to dispose of the house in the future, it could be of importance to your future buyer what the searches disclose. There are plenty of instances where properties with apparent issues can still show up adverse search results. A competent conveyancing solicitor in Barmouth will be able to give you some helpful guidance here.

I have a decision in principle. The bank mentioned the loan came with free conveyancing. Does this mean I have to use their panel lawyer as I would much rather instruct a Barmouth based conveyancing firm?

You should check but the chances are that give you one of their panel solicitors if you accept the "fee-free" incentive. Call the lender and determine if they make available a cash alternative. In the past a few mortgage companies offered a £250 cashback as a further option in which case that money can go towards the cost for your conveyancing solicitor near Barmouth.

Various web forums that I have come across warn that are the main reason for hinderance in Barmouth conveyancing transactions. Is this right?

The Council of Property Search Organisations (CoPSO) has noted the determinations of a review by MoveWithUs that conveyancing searches do not figure amongst the common causes of hindrances in the conveyancing process. Local searches are unlikely to be the root cause of holding up conveyancing in Barmouth.

My wife and I own a 4 bedroom Edwardian property in Barmouth. Conveyancing lawyer represented me and Nottingham Building Society. I did a free Land Registry search last week and there are two entries: one for freehold, another for leasehold with the exact same address. I'd like to know for sure, how can I find out??

You should read the Freehold register you have again and check the Charges Register as there may be mention of a lease. The best way to be sure that you are also the registered owner of the leasehold and freehold title as well is to check (£3). It is not completely unheard of in Barmouth and other areas of the country and poses no real issues for owners other than when they remortgage they have to account for both freehold and leasehold interests when dealing with purchasers. You can also enquire as to the position with the conveyancing lawyer who conducted the work.

Due to the advice of my in-laws I had a survey completed on a house in Barmouth ahead of instructing lawyers. I have been informed that there is a flying freehold element to the house. Our surveyor advised that some mortgage companies tend refuse to issue a mortgage on this type of property.

It depends who your proposed lender is. Bank of Scotland has different requirements from Halifax. If you call us we can check with the relevant lender. If you lender is happy to lend one our lawyers can assist as they are used to dealing with flying freeholds in Barmouth. Conveyancing may be slightly more expensive based on your lender's requirements.

I am downsizing from my property. My past lawyers closed down. I am in need of a recommendation of a conveyancing firm. I happen to live in Barmouth if that makes a difference.
