I completed on my home on 6 April and my personal details are still not on the land registry website. Should I be concerned? My conveyancing solicitor in Ystalyfera advises it would be formalised in less than a month. Are properties in Ystalyfera uniquely lengthy to register?
As far as conveyancing in Ystalyfera is concerned, registration is no faster or slower than anywhere else in England and Wales. As opposed to being determined by geographic area, timescales can vary depending on the party submitting the application, whether it is in order and whether the Land registry must send notices to any other parties. Currently roughly three quarters of submission are fully addressed within 12 days but some can be subject to protracted hold-ups. Registration is effected once the new owner is living at the premises therefore post completion formalities is not always an essential issue but where it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your lawyers must communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for the application to be prioritised.
How does conveyancing in Ystalyfera differ for new build properties?
Most buyers of new build premises in Ystalyfera approach us having been asked by the builder to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the house is constructed. This is because developers in Ystalyfera tend to buy the land, 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 used to new build conveyancing in Ystalyfera or who has acted in the same development.
I am in need of some leasehold conveyancing in Ystalyfera. Before I get started I require certainty as to the number of years remaining on the lease.
If the lease is recorded at the land registry - and most are in Ystalyfera - then the leasehold title will always include the short particulars of the lease, namely the date; the term; and the original parties. From a conveyancing perspective such details then enable any prospective buyer and lender to confirm that any lease they are looking at is the one relevant to that title. For any other purpose, such as confirming how long the term was granted for and calculating what is left, then the register should be sufficient on it's own.

Is anyone aware of any major works anticipated that could add a premium to the maintenance fees? The prefered form of lease structure is where the freehold interest is owned by the leaseholders. In this scenario the lessees enjoy control and although a managing agent is usually retained if it is bigger than a house conversion, the managing agent is directed by the tenants. For many Ystalyfera leaseholds the outlay for major works are not included within maintenance charges, although some managing agents in Ystalyfera require leasehold owners to pay into a reserve fund and this is used to offset against larger works.
