Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Skewen

How up to date is your database of Skewen solicitors on the Santander conveyancing panel? Do Santander send you an updated list?

My wife and I are buying a flat in Skewen. It might be a silly question but how we can trust a conveyancer? On completion day we have to deposit funds into their account. What protection do we have from them run away with our money?

Be assured that all money in a Solicitors client account is 100% safe, and even if your Solicitor ran off with it, the Law Society would reimburse you fully.

I am selling my flat. I had a double glazing fitted in March 2006, but did not receive a FENSA certificate or Building Regulation Certificate. My buyer's lender, Co-operative are being problematic. The Skewen solicitor who is on the Co-operative conveyancing panel is recommending indemnity insurance as a solution but Co-operative are requiring a building regulation certificate. Why do Co-operative have a conveyancing panel if they don't accept advice from them?

It is probably the case that Co-operative have referred the matter to their valuer. The reason why Co-operative 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.

Planning on purchasing a apartment in Skewen. I have received an online quote from a licenced conveyancer, which states: "There will be no charge for dealing with the Building Society if you are obtaining a mortgage". I take this to mean that there will be no additional fee if the solicitor is on the Virgin Money conveyancing panel. I wanted to make sure it means there will be no additional fees for dealing with the mortgage.

They are simply saying that the cost for acting for the lender is included in the fee being quoted. It is worth you checking that the Skewen lawyer is on the Virgin Money conveyancing panel.

My wife and I purchased a terraced Georgian house in Skewen. Conveyancing solicitor represented me and Barnsley Building Society. I happened to do a free search for it on the Land Registry database and there are a couple of entries: the first freehold, another for leasehold under the exact same address. If a house is not a freehold shouldn't I have been informed?

You need to review 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 proprietor of the leasehold and freehold title as well is to check (£3). It is not completely unheard of in Skewen 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 enquire as to the situation with your conveyancing solicitor who completed the work.

I have been pointed in your direction by a few estate agents in Skewen to get a quote from a property lawyer using your seach tool. What’s the financial incentive for Estate Agents to market your lawyers over a competitor’s?

We don’t offer any financial incentive for directing people to this site. We thought it would be too underhand a fee because home movers will think, ‘How come the agent getting a kickback? Why am I not getting any benefit too?’ So we decided to step away from that.

I need to find a conveyancing solicitor for freehold conveyancing in Skewen. I've chance upon a web site which appears to be the ideal answer If it is possible to get all the legals completed via phone that would be preferable. Should I be concerned? What should out be looking out for?

As usual with these online conveyancers you need to read ALL the small print - did you notice the extra charge for dealing with the mortgage?

My husband and I are are seeking to find an affordable conveyancing solicitor in Skewen to assist me in selling my place. I I am concerned about by bill escalating out of control but with lots of Skewen conveyancing practices to pick from...who's the best?
