When it comes to conveyancing in Dymock obtaining recommendations is a sensible starting point. Before you go ahead, check if they offer a no sale no fee offer.

I am selling my house. I had a double glazing fitted in January 2006, but did not receive a FENSA certificate or Building Regulation Certificate. My purchaser’s lender, Barclays are being problematic. The Dymock solicitor who is on the Barclays conveyancing panel is saying indemnity insurance will be fine but Barclays are requiring a building regulation certificate. Why do Barclays have a conveyancing panel if they don't accept advice from them?
It is probably the case that Barclays have referred the matter to their valuer. The reason why Barclays may not want to accept indemnity insurance is because it does not give them any reassurance that the double glazing was correctly and safely installed. The indemnity insurance merely protects against enforcement action which is very unlikely anyway.
Should commercial conveyancing searches reveal planned roadworks that could affect a commercial site in Dymock?

How does conveyancing in Dymock differ for new build properties?
Most buyers of new build or newly converted property in Dymock contact us having been asked by the developer to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the house is completed. This is because builders in Dymock typically purchase the land, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct property lawyers as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are accustomed to new build conveyancing in Dymock or who has acted in the same development.
Over the last few months I have been searching for a leasehold apartment up to £305k and found one close by in Dymock I like with a park and railway links in the vicinity, however it's only got 49 remaining years left on the lease. There is not much else in Dymock in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error buying a short lease?
Should you require a mortgage the shortness of the lease may be problematic. Reduce the price by the amount the lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the existing proprietor has owned the property for at least 2 years you can request that they start the process of the extension and pass it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the existing lease with a zero ground rent applied. You should speak to your conveyancing lawyer concerning this matter.
We're first time buyers - agreed a price, yet the property agent informed us that the seller will only issue a contract if we instruct their preferred conveyancers as they want a ‘quick sale’. We would rather use a local solicitor used to conveyancing in Dymock
We suspect that the owner is not behind this demand. If they desire ‘a quick sale', turning down a genuine purchaser is going to damage their objectives. Contact the sellers directly and make sure they understand (a)you are keen to buy (b)you are ready to progress, with finances arranged © you do not need to sell (d) you intend to proceed fast (e)but you will continue to use your own,trusted Dymock conveyancing firm - not the ones that will give their estate agent a kickback or hit his conveyancing figures set by head office.
