I have today made my last payment due on my mortgage with Co-operative. I assume I don't need a St Clears conveyancing practitioner on the Co-operative panel to remove the mortgage at the Land Registry. Please confirm.
If you have finished paying off your Co-operative mortgage, they may send you evidence showing that you have paid it off. Alternatively they may notify the Land Registry directly. The Land Registry need to see this evidence before they will remove the Co-operative mortgage from the register. Co-operative, and any evidence they send you, will determine the action you need to take. In cases where no conveyancer is acting for you and you have paid off your mortgage:
- but are not moving to another property
- where Co-operative has sent the Land Registry the discharge electronically, and
- Co-operative has instructed the Land Registry to do so
After much negotiation I have agreed a price on a house in St Clears. My mortgage broker recommended their conveyancers. I paid an on account payment of £175. Not long after, the solicitor called me to say that they were not on the Coventry BS conveyancing panel. Am I right in thinking that I should be due a refund?
You should be able to recover this from the law firm if they were not on the Coventry BS panel. They should have asked at the outset which lender you were obtaining a mortgage with. An important lesson to readers of this site is to check that the lawyers are on the appropriate lender panel.

Just acquired a semi-detached house in St Clears , how long will it take for the Land Registry to record my title? My St Clears conveyancing solicitor has been painfully slow, so I want to be certain the registration formalities are addressed.
There is nothing unique about conveyancing in St Clears registration formalities. Rather than based on location, timeframes can vary subject to the party submitting the application, whether there are errors and whether the Land registry have to notify any third persons or bodies. As of today in the region of three quarters of such applications are fully dealt with within two weeks but some can be subject to protracted delays. Registration occurs once the buyer is living at the property so 'speed' is not always an essential issue yet if it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your conveyancer can speak with the land registry and explain the circumstances.
Yesterday I discovered that there is a flying freehold element on a property I have offered on a fortnight ago in what was supposed to be a quick, no chain conveyancing. St Clears is where the house is located. Is there any advice you can give?
Flying freeholds in St Clears are rare but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside St Clears you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds very carefully. Your lender may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in St Clears may ascertain 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 premises.

As a tenant I am liable for a maintenance fee for my first floor flat in St Clears. Due to redundancy and other issues I fell into arrears with payments. I negotiated a payment schedule but there remains approximately £3000 remaining to be paid.
I am under pressure to dispose of the property and I am worried this will hold me back if I have to pay off the amount due now. I'd like to sell up and then pay them back with the completion monies - is this possible?
You should speak with the conveyancing practitioner handling your St Clears conveyancing but it might be possible to agree for the arrears to be attributed to the buyers. The contractual price due would be reduced to reflect the amount of debt they take on. They could then discharge the arrears after completion of the sale.
