Is the fact that my solicitor in Bagillt is not on my mortgage company's solicitor panel that there is a problem with the quality of his conveyancing?

That would most likely be an incorrect assumption to make. There are all sorts of perfectly reasonable explanations. Just recently a report by the solicitors regulator indicated 76% of law firms surveyed had been removed from at least one lender panel. The most common reasons for removal are: (1) lack of transactions (2) the lawyer is a sole practitioner (3) as part of the HSBC panel reduction (4) regulatory contact by SRA (5) accidental removal. Should you be concerned you should simply call the Bagillt conveyancing practice and ask them why they are no longer on the approved list for your mortgage company.

When does exchange of contracts occur in residential conveyancing in Bagillt and am I required to be at the lawyers office?

If you are near to one of the conveyancing solicitors in Bagillt you are invited in to sign contracts. However, the law practices we work with offer countrywide coverage for conveyancing and provide just as comprehensive and professional a job for you when communicating with you digitally. The signing of the contract is not the point of no return. Signing on the dotted line is just a prerequisite for the firm to address the formalities at the appropriate time, which is ordinarily shortly after signing. The exchange process is is usually a five minute process, although where a lengthy "chain" is involved, since the process requires the relevant party's solicitor (not necessarily a conveyancing solicitor in Bagillt)to be in the office available at the end of the phone to exchange contracts.

My wife and I buying a end of terrace house in Bagillt. We would like to an extension at the rear at the house.Will legal investigations on the property involve checks to determine if these works are permitted?

Your conveyancer will review the deeds as conveyancing in Bagillt will on occasion reveal restrictions in the title documents which prohibit categories of alterations or need the permission of another owner. Certain extensions call for local authority planning permissions and approval in compliance with building regulations. Certain areas are designated conservation areas and special planning restrictions apply which frequently prevent or affect extensions. You should check these issues with a surveyor prior to committing yourself to a purchase.

Our offer on a detached house in Bagillt has been accepted, but there is a chain. The owners have offered on a property, however it’s not yet tied up, and are looking at other flats booked. I have chosen a high street conveyancing solicitor in Bagillt. What do I do now? When do I get the mortgage application with Co-operative going?

It is normal to have apprehensions where there is a chain as you are unlikely to want to be too out of pocket prematurely (home loan application is approx £1k, then valuation, Bagillt conveyancing search fees, etc). The first thing to do is check that your conveyancer is on the Co-operative approved list. Regarding the subsequent steps this very much dictated by the circumstances of your case, desire for the property and on the state of the market. In a buoyant market many buyers would apply for the mortgage with Co-operative and pay for the valuation and only if it comes back ok would they request their conveyancer to proceed with searches.

I purchased a semi-detached Victorian property in Bagillt. Conveyancing practitioner represented me and Norwich and Peterborough Building Society. I did a free Land Registry search last week and there are two entries: the first freehold, another for leasehold with the matching property. I'd like to know for sure, how can I find out??

You should assess 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 Bagillt and other areas of the country and poses no real issues for owners other than when they remortgage they have to account for both freehold and leasehold interests when dealing with mortgage companies. You can also enquire as to the situation with your conveyancing solicitor who conducted the purchase.

Will the freehold then be transferred for a nominal consideration (not exceeding £100) to the Management Company? The Landlord must covenant to assume the management if the Management Company goes into liquidation or otherwise defaults in running the management scheme. There must be mutual enforceability of lessee’s covenants. The Lease must contain a provision on behalf of the Vendor to pay the service charges in respect of unoccupied units in order to ensure that all services can be provided. Where there is an Undertaking being granted there is the risk of forfeiture of the Headlease subject to relief if one or more of the Underlessees are willing to accept the original Head Lessee’s obligations as otherwise relief will be denied to the Underlessees. The only alternatives are the Head Lessor agreeing not to forfeit the Headlease or the Head Lessee guaranteeing to the Underlessees that it will not be in breach of the Headlease.
