Me and my husband are buying a flat in Lisvane. My property lawyer is not listed on the bank conveyancing list. Can I still appoint my Lisvane conveyancing solicitor even though they are excluded from the lender list of approved lawyers?
You have a number of options available to you here
- Complete the deal with your preferred Lisvane lawyer but your lender will need to instruct a solicitor from their approved list. The net result is additional charges together with likely frustration.
- Get a fresh solicitor to act in the purchase, obviously checking they are on the lender conveyancing panel.
- Convince your lawyer to seek to join the mortgage company panel
My husband and I are approaching an exchange on a house in Lisvane and my parents have transferred the ten percent deposit to my conveyancing practitioner. I am now informed that as the deposit has been sent from someone other than me my property lawyer needs to disclose this to my lender. Apparently, in also acting for the lender he must inform them that the balance of the purchase price is coming from anyone other than me. I advised the bank about my parents' contribution when I applied for the mortgage, so is it really appropriate for this now to hold matters up?
Your lawyer is legally required to clarify with the bank to ensure that they are aware that the balance of the purchase price is not from your own funds. The solicitor can only report this to your lender if you permit them to, failing which, your lawyer must cease to continue acting.
I got the keys to my house on 10 June and the transaction details is yet to be registered. Need I be worried? My conveyancing solicitor in Lisvane advises it should be formalised in less than a month. Are titles in Lisvane particularly slow to register?
There is nothing unique when it comes to conveyancing in Lisvane registration formalities. As opposed to being determined by geographic area, timescales can differ depending on the party submitting the application, whether there are errors and if the Land registry have to notify any third persons or bodies. At present in the region of 80% of submission are fully dealt with in less than three weeks but occasionally there can be extensive hold-ups. Historically registration occurs after the purchaser is living at the property thus 'speed' is not always primary concern yet if it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your conveyancer must communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for the application to be prioritised.
I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold element on a property I have offered on two weeks back in what should have been a straight forward, chain free conveyancing. Lisvane is where the house is located. What do you suggest?
Flying freeholds in Lisvane are rare but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even though you don't necessarily need a conveyancing solicitor in Lisvane you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds diligently. Your mortgage company may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Lisvane may decide that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold residence.
