This question may be naive but I am new to the process as FTB of a garden flat in Wallingford. Do I pick up the keys to the house on the completion date from my lawyer? If so, I will use a local conveyancing solicitor in Wallingford?
There is no need to visit the lawyers office on the day of completion. Conveyancing lawyers for you will transfer the completion advance to the owner’s conveyancers, and shortly after the monies have arrived, you will be called to collect the keys from the selling Agents and move into your new home. This tends to happen early afternoon.
I happen to be the single recipient of my late father’s estate and I have everything in my name now, including the my former home in Wallingford. Conveyancing formalities meant that the Land Registry date was in February. I want to move. I do know about the Mortgage Lenders six month 'rule', which means that my proprietorship could be regarded the same way as if I'd bought the house in February. Will no one buy the property for half a year?
The CML handbook mandates solicitors to: "report to us immediately if the owner or registered proprietor has been registered for less than six months." By the strict wording you might be caught by that. How practical a view mortgage companies take of it, depend on the bank as this provision is principally there to pick up on the purchase and immediately sell or the wholesaling and assigning of properties.
After weeks of negotiation I have agreed a price on an apartment in Wallingford. My financial adviser pressured me to appoint their conveyancer. I paid an on account payment of £200. A few days later, the property lawyer contacted me sheepishly admitting that they were not on the Barclays 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 Barclays 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.
Are there restrictive covenants that are commonly identified as part of conveyancing in Wallingford?

How does conveyancing in Wallingford differ for newly converted properties?
Most buyers of new build property in Wallingford approach us having been asked by the developer to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the property is constructed. This is because developers in Wallingford usually acquire the real estate, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct property lawyers as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are accustomed to new build conveyancing in Wallingford or who has acted in the same development.
