IfI was to acquire a freehold housein Blackwood mortgage fee and have no survey and no local authority searches how much could I expect to to save on my conveyancing in Blackwood?
The sole reduction in fees you would make on is the Blackwood conveyancing searches. The conveyancer is obliged to do the vast majority of work - money laundering, correspond with the sellers lawyer, stamp duty return, register the ownership etc. You might save a bit for them not needing to register a mortgage however it won't be meaningful.
Do lenders provide you with an approved list of Blackwood conveyancing solicitors? How do you know who is on the RBS conveyancing panel?
Blackwood conveyancing firms themselves provide us confirmation that they are on the RBS conveyancing panel as opposed to being supplied with a list from RBS directly.
Please explain the implications if my solicitor is expelled from the Principality Conveyancing panel ahead of completing my conveyancing in Blackwood?
The first thing to point out is that, this is a very rare occurrence. In most cases even where a law firm is removed off of a panel the lender would allow the completion to go ahead as the lender would appreciate the difficulties that they would place you in if you have to instruct a new solicitor days before completion. In a worst case scenario where the lender insists that you instruct a new firm then it is possible for a very good lawyer to expedite the conveyancing albeit that you may pay a significant premium for this. The analogous situation is where a buyer instructs a lawyer, exchanges contracts and the law firm is shut down by a regulator such as the SRA. Again, in this situation you can find lawyers who can troubleshoot their way to bring the conveyancing to a satisfactory conclusion - albeit for a fee.
Taking into account that I will soon spend £400,000 on a property in Blackwood I wish to have a conversation with the conveyancer about myhouse move in advance of appointing the firm. Can this be arranged?

Can you offer any advice when it comes to choosing a Blackwood conveyancing practice to deal with our lease extension?
When appointing a property lawyer for lease extension works (regardless if they are a Blackwood conveyancing firm) it is essential that he or she should be familiar with the legislation and specialises in this area of conveyancing. We suggest that you make enquires with several firms including non Blackwood conveyancing practices before you instructing a firm. Where the conveyancing practice is ALEP accredited then so much the better. The following questions could be useful:
-
What are the costs for lease extension work? If the firm is not ALEP accredited then what is the reason?
I am the registered owner of a studio flat in Blackwood, conveyancing formalities finalised May 1998. How much will my lease extension cost? Equivalent flats in Blackwood with an extended lease are worth £202,000. The ground rent is £55 per annum. The lease finishes on 21st October 2080
With 56 years unexpired we estimate the premium for your lease extension to span between £29,500 and £34,000 as well as costs.
The suggested premium range that we have given is a general guide to costs for renewing a lease, but we cannot give you a more accurate figure in the absence of comprehensive due diligence. Do not use the figures in a Notice of Claim or as an informal offer. There may be additional concerns that need to be considered and clearly you want to be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. Please do not take any other action placing reliance on this information without first getting professional advice.
