What is the difference between a licensed conveyancer and conveyancing solicitor in Rumney

There are many registered licenced Conveyancers in Rumney and Solicitor partnerships in Rumney who provide Conveyancing services It is important to make clear that both are supervised by regulatory bodies with both specialising in the legal work in the home buying process. They may both also handle associated property related work such as remortgage conveyancing, lease extensions and transfer of equity conveyancing.

We have agreed to purchase a house in Rumney. A rare aspect is that the roof has a solar panel. UBS have issued a mortgage offer so presumably this is not a concern to them. Why is my solicitor raising questions about the panel?

As your lender is UBS your lawyer must comply with the formal requirements contained in Section 2 of UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook for UBS. The Council of Mortgage Lenders’ Handbook sets out minimum requirements for solar panel roof-space leases, and conveyancing practitioners are required to report to UBS where a lease does not satisfy these requirements. The provisions relate to the installation of panels on properties nationwide and is not limited to Rumney.

I've read lots of mortgage guides, I note that they all recommend that you should get your house surveyed prior to buying it. When I asked my local Rumney solicitor - who is on the Coventry BS conveyancing panel - on this she said they don't do this and I need to contract an independent surveyor. Is that normal?

Coventry BS will need an independent valuation of the property. Your lawyer will not arrange this. Usually Coventry BS will appoint their own surveyor to do this, and you will have to pay for it. Remember that this is a valuation for mortgage purposes and not a survey. You may wish to consider appointing your own Rumney surveyor to carry out a survey or prepare a home buyers report on the property. It is up to you to satisfy yourself that the property is structurally sound before you buy it. If the survey or report reveals that building work is needed, you should tell your solicitor. You may wish to renegotiate with the seller.

I have been told that property searches are the primary cause of obstruction in Rumney house deals. Is this right?

The Council of Property Search Organisations (CoPSO) has noted the determinations of research by MoveWithUs that conveyancing searches do not feature within the common causes of delays in the conveyancing process. Searches are not likely to feature in any delay in conveyancing in Rumney.

I have been on the look out for a leasehold apartment up to £235,500 and found one round the corner in Rumney I like with open areas and station in the vicinity, however it's only got 51 remaining years left on the lease. There is not much else in Rumney for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake purchasing a lease with such few years left?

If you need a mortgage that many years will likely be an issue. Reduce the price by the expected lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the current owner has owned the property for at least twenty four months you can ask them to commence the lease extension formalities and pass it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the current lease with a zero ground rent applied. You should consult your conveyancing solicitor concerning this matter.
