I am purchasing a house and need a conveyancing solicitor in Llanrwst who is on the Lloyds TSB Bank conveyancing. Can you recommend a local conveyancing firm?
Our service is limited to being a directory service for firms who wish to listed as being on the approved conveyancing panel for Lloyds TSB Bank in certain locations such as Llanrwst. We dont recommend any particular firm.
Various internet forums that I have visited warn that are the main cause of obstruction in Llanrwst conveyancing transactions. Is that correct?
The Council of Property Search Organisations (CoPSO) has noted the determinations of research by MoveWithUs that conveyancing searches do not figure amongst the common causes of hindrances during the legal transfer of property. Searches are unlikely to be the root cause of slowing down conveyancing in Llanrwst.
I purchased my house on 4 August and my personal details is not yet on the land registry website. Should I be concerned? My conveyancing solicitor in Llanrwst said it should be registered in a couple of weeks. Are properties in Llanrwst particularly slow to register?
As far as conveyancing in Llanrwst is concerned, registration is no quicker or slower than anywhere else in England and Wales. Rather than based on location, timeframes can differ subject to the party submitting the application, whether there are errors and if the Land registry must send notices to any interested persons or bodies. At present roughly three quarters of such applications are completed in less than three weeks but some can be subject to longer delays. Historically registration takes place once the purchaser is living at the property thus 'speed' is not always top priority but where it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your conveyancer could communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for the application to be prioritised.
In sourcing the web for the term cheap conveyancing in Llanrwst it reveals many property lawyersin the vicinity. With so much choice what is the best way to find the suitable conveyancing solicitor for my move?
The best method of finding a suitable conveyancer is via trusted testimonial, so enquire of colleagues and family who have bought a property in Llanrwst or the local estate agent or mortgage broker.

I am employed by a long established estate agency in Llanrwst where we have witnessed a few flat sales jeopardised as a result of leases having less than 80 years remaining. I have been given conflicting advice from local Llanrwst conveyancing firms. Could you confirm whether the owner of a flat can instigate the lease extension process for the purchaser on completion of the sale?
Provided that the seller has owned the lease for at least 2 years it is possible, to serve a Section 42 notice to start the lease extension process and assign the benefit of the notice to the purchaser. The benefit of this is that the buyer need not have to sit tight for 2 years to extend their lease. Both sets of lawyers will agree to form of assignment. The assignment has to be done prior to, or at the same time as completion of the disposal of the property.
Alternatively, it may be possible to agree the lease extension with the freeholder either before or after the sale. If you are informally negotiating there are no rules and so you cannot insist on the landlord agreeing to grant an extension or transferring the benefit of an agreement to the purchaser.
I inherited a split level flat in Llanrwst, conveyancing formalities finalised May 2003. Can you let me have an estimate of the premium that my landlord can legally expect in return for granting a renewal of my lease? Corresponding flats in Llanrwst with an extended lease are worth £211,000. The ground rent is £45 invoiced annually. The lease runs out on 21st October 2093
With only 67 years unexpired we estimate the premium for your lease extension to span between £10,500 and £12,000 plus plus your own and the landlord's "reasonable" professional fees.
The suggested premium range above a general guide to costs for extending a lease, but we are not able to advice on the actual costs without more comprehensive investigations. Do not use this information in tribunal or court proceedings. There may be other issues that need to be taken into account and clearly you want to be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. Please do not take any other action based on this information before getting professional advice.
Do I stop my mortgage payments with Leeds Building Society as soon as a completion date for my sale in Llanrwst has been agreed?
No, you must maintain paying any mortgage payments to Leeds Building Society pending the mortgage being paid off from the proceeds of sale as part of your Llanrwst conveyancing.
