I am in the throes of porting my current homeowner loan to a Buy to Let Barclays mortgage. I was told by my mortgage that I require a conveyancer as part of the process. I had a chat my past Dolwyddelan conveyancing solicitor who dealt with the legals when I originally bought the property. The quote they've given of £550 has surprised me as its a remortgage than a sale or purchase.

The quote is fractionally on the steep side. If you shop around you might trim some of the cost by perhaps £100 plus VAT. On the other hand, providing that you were satisfied with the legal work the firm gave you couldcome to rue opting for an a cheaper lawyer. Remember to be sure the conveyancer can also act for Barclays .

In what way does my ID and proof of funds have anything to do with my conveyancing in Dolwyddelan? Why is this being asked of me?

It is indeed that case that the requirement set out by your lawyer has nothing to do with conveyancing in Dolwyddelan. Nowadays you can not complete any conveyancing process in the absence handing over proof of your identity. Ordinarily this takes the form of a either your passport or driving licence and a utility bill. Remember if you are providing your driving licence as evidence of ID it must be both the paper element as well as the photo card part, one is not acceptable in the absence of the other.

Proof of the origin of funds is necessary under Money Laundering Regulations. Don’t be offended when when this is requested of you as your conveyancing solicitor will need to have this information on record. Your Dolwyddelan conveyancing solicitor will need to see evidence of proof of funds before they are able to accept any monies from you into their client account and they may also ask additional queries regarding the source of monies.

It has been five months since my purchase conveyancing in Dolwyddelan completed. I have checked the Land Registry site which shows that I paid £200,000 when infact I paid £215,000. Why the discrepancy?

The price paid figure is taken from the application to register the purchase. It is the figure included in the Transfer (the legal deed which transfers the asset from one person to the other) and referred to as the 'consideration' or purchase price. You can report an error in the price paid figure using the LR online form. In most cases errors result from typos so at first glance the figure. Do report it so they can double check and advise.

Just had an offer accepted on a new build apartment in Dolwyddelan. Conveyancing is a frightening process at the best of times but I have never purchased a new build flat before. What sort of enquires would be asked in new build legal work.

Set out below are examples of a selection of leasehold new build questions that you should expect your new-build leasehold conveyancing in Dolwyddelan

Please supply evidence that the form of Lease proposed has been approved by the Land Registry. 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. Where service of notices and proceedings can be at the property demised please confirm that this can be amended to include simultaneous services at the Lessees’ solicitors’ offices where the Lessee from time to time is not resident in the UK - such solicitors may be varied by notice in writing to the Landlord from time to time but otherwise will be as previously specified. The Vendor must covenant to keep unsold units in good repair until long leases are granted therefore. There must be mutual enforceability of lessee’s covenants.
