I have given 8 weeks notice to my current landlord and must be out of my let out property in Pyle by the end of next month. Conveyancing on my purchase is underway. Is it possible to complete in three weeks as I wish to avoid having to find temporary accommodation?
The normal practice is not to serve notice on a rental unless exchange of contracts has taken place. Assuming that you have not previously done so, notify to your lawyer and request that they apply pressure on the owners side, try to a target completion date that all parties will look towards
As someone with no idea as to the Pyle conveyancing process what’s your top tip you can give me concerning the legal transfer of property in Pyle
Not many law firms shout this from the rooftops but conveyancing in Pyle or throughout Bridgend is often a confrontational experience. Put another way, when it comes to conveyancing there is plenty of opportunity for conflict between you and others involved in the transaction. E.g., the seller, selling agent and on occasion a mortgage company. Choosing a solicitor for your conveyancing in Pyle is a critical decision as your conveyancer is your adviser, and is the SOLE party in the legal process whose role it is to protect your legal interests and to keep you safe.
Sometimes a third party with a vested interest will try and sway you that it is in your interests to do things their way. For instance, the estate agent may claim to be assisting by suggesting your conveyancer is slow. Or your financial adviser may try to convince you to do take action that is contrary to your solicitors recommendation. You should always trust your lawyer above all other parties when it comes to the legal transfer of property.
I have a 4 bedroom Georgian property in Pyle. Conveyancing practitioner represented me and Virgin Money. I happened to do a free search for it on the Land Registry database and I saw a couple of entries: the first freehold, another for leasehold with the matching address. I thought I was buying a freehold how can I check?
You need to assess the Freehold register you have again and check the Charges Register for mention of a lease. The best way to be sure that you are also the registered owner of the leasehold and freehold title as well is to check (£3). It is not completely unheard of in Pyle and other locations in the country and poses no real issues for owners other than when they mortgage they have to account for both freehold and leasehold interests when dealing with buyers. You can also question the position with the conveyancing practitioner who completed the work.
