We are only a couple days away from an exchange on a house in Cilfynydd and my parents have transferred the 10% deposit to my property lawyer. I am now informed that as the deposit has not come from me my property lawyer needs to make a notification to my bank. I am advised that, in also acting for the bank he must inform them that the balance of the purchase price is not just from me. I advised the bank about my parents' contribution when I applied for the home loan, so is it really necessary for this now to be an issue?
The property lawyer is legally required to check with the bank to make sure that they understand that the balance of the purchase price is not from your own funds. Your solicitor can only reveal this to your mortgage company if you agree, failing which, your lawyer must cease to continue acting.

This question may be naive but I am unseasoned as a first time purchaser of a garden flat in Cilfynydd. Do I pick up the keys to the house on completion from my solicitor? If so, I will find a High Street conveyancing solicitor in Cilfynydd?
On the day of completion you will not be required to attend the conveyancers office in Cilfynydd. Conveyancing lawyers for you will electronically transfer the purchase money to the seller's solicitors, and once they have received this, you will be invited to pick up the keys from the Estate Agents and start moving into the property. Usually this occurs between 1 and 3pm.
About to purchase house in Cilfynydd. I have received an online quote from a licenced conveyancer, which states: "There will be no charge for dealing with the Building Society if you are obtaining a mortgage". I take this to mean that there will be no additional fee if the solicitor is on the Nationwide conveyancing panel. I wanted to make sure it means there will be no additional fees for dealing with the mortgage.
They are simply saying that the cost for acting for the lender is included in the fee being quoted. It is worth you checking that the Cilfynydd conveyancer is on the Nationwide conveyancing panel.
I was told two weeks ago that my mortgage has been agreed to by Skipton. Is it usual for Skipton to only issue the offer once my solicitor in Cilfynydd is approved on their conveyancing panel? Skipton have asked my solicitor to see a copy of their PI Insurance.
A lender would not issue a mortgage until they have details of a lawyer on their panel. It can take a few weeks for Skipton to deal with your lawyer's application to be on the Skipton conveyancing panel. There's no guarantee that your solicitor will be accepted.

Do you have any advice for leasehold conveyancing in Cilfynydd with the purpose of saving time on the sale process?
- Much of the frustration in leasehold conveyancing in Cilfynydd can be reduced where you instruct lawyers as soon as your agents start marketing the property and ask them to collate the leasehold information which will be required by the buyers’ representatives. The majority of freeholders or managing agents in Cilfynydd levy fees for supplying management packs for a leasehold home. You or your lawyers should discover the fee that they propose to charge. The management pack sought on or before finding a buyer, thus accelerating the process. The typical amount of time it takes to obtain the necessary information is three weeks. It is the most usual reason for delay in leasehold conveyancing in Cilfynydd. If you have the benefit of shareholding in the Management Company, you should make sure that you have the original share document. Arranging a duplicate share certificate can be a time consuming formality and slows down many a Cilfynydd conveyancing transaction. If a reissued share certificate is required, you should approach the company director and secretary or managing agents (if relevant) for this at the earliest opportunity. You may think that you are aware of the number of years remaining on your lease but it would be advisable verify this via your solicitors. A purchaser's lawyer will not be happy to advise their client to proceed with the purchase of a leasehold property the lease term is under 75 years. In the circumstances it is important at an early stage that you consider whether the lease requires a lease extension. If it does, contact your solicitors before you put your home on the market for sale.
