Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Colwyn Bay

Is the fact that my solicitor in Colwyn Bay is not on my mortgage company's conveyancing panel that there is a problem with the quality of his work?

That is most likely an incorrect assumption to make. There are plenty of plausible explanations. Just recently a report by the solicitors regulator indicated 76% of law firms surveyed had been removed from at least one lender panel. The most common reasons for removal are: (1) low volume of transactions (2) the solicitor is a sole practitioner (3) as part of the HSBC panel reduction (4) regulatory contact by SRA (5) accidental removal. If you are concerned you should simply call the Colwyn Bay conveyancing firm and ask them why they are no longer on the approved list for your bank.

Please help. My Colwyn Bay lawyer is informing me me that he is legally obliged toconduct Colwyn Bay conveyancing searches becausethe firm are on the HSBCconveyancing panel. Is my solicitor right?

Unfortunately both you and your lawyer have little choice here. Given that you are taking out a loan with a lender your conveyancer has to comply with their conditions as set out in their version of the CML Conveyancing Handbook. Your conveyancing practitioner would have previously signed the Terms and Conditions of your bank’s conveyancing panel appointment which obliges them to follow the CML Handbook requirements . Even if you were a cash buyer you would be ill advised not to carry out Colwyn Bay conveyancing searches.

I am the registered owner of a freehold house in Colwyn Bay yet charged rent, why is this and what is this?

It’s unusual for properties in Colwyn Bay and has limited impact for conveyancing in Colwyn Bay 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 have existed for many centuries, but the Rent Charge Act 1977 barred the establishment of fresh rentcharges post 1977.

Previous rentcharges can now be redeemed by making a one off payment under the Act. Any rentcharges that are still in existence after 2037 is to be dispensed with completely.

As far as conveyancing in Colwyn Bay registration is no quicker or slower than the rest of the country.
