Where you are round the corner to our conveyancing solicitors in Criccieth you are invited in to sign contracts. However, the firms we work with supply countrywide coverage for conveyancing and give as equally detailed and professional a job for you when dealing with you digitally. The signing of the contract is not when everything is set in stone. A signed contract is necessary for the conveyancer to address the formalities when the time is right, which will usually be very shortly after signing.

I am selling our house in Criccieth and the buyers lawyers are claiming that there is a risk of it being constructed land that was not decontaminated. A high street Criccieth lawyer would know that there is no such problem. For the life of me I don't know why the buyers instructed a national conveyancing practice rather than a conveyancing solicitor in Criccieth. Having lived in Criccieth for three years we know of no issue. Do we contact our local Authority to seek confirmation need.

It would appear that you have a conveyancing firm currently acting for you. What do they say? You should enquire of your lawyer before you do anything. It is very possible that once the local authority has been informed of a potential issue it cannot be insured against (a bit like being diagnosed with a serious illness and then taking out health insurance to cover that same sickness)

The practices that we put you in touch with believe that the figure you are provided with for residential conveyancing in Criccieth should be the figure that you end up paying.

The lawyers carrying out our conveyancing in Criccieth has sent documents to review that state the land is unregistered with epitome documents. How can it be that the property not currently recorded at HMLR?

Although the vast majorities of properties in Criccieth are now registered with HMLR there are still a few that are unregistered. Any property in Criccieth that has been remortgaged since the late 1980’s will have been registered at the Land Registry under the compulsory ‘first registration’ scheme. However, if a Criccieth property has not changed hands in that time then it’s likely the old fashioned title deeds will be the only evidence of ownership.Plenty of Criccieth conveyancing solicitors should be capable of dealing with such matters but if any uncertainty prevails the prevailing advice nowadays is for the seller’s conveyancer to deal with the registration formalities first and subsequently sell - this will have a domino effect to result in a prolonged conveyancing.
