I am in the throes of switching my domestic loan to a BTL Bank of Ireland mortgage. I was told by my mortgage that I must appoint a conveyancer as part of the process. I got in contact with my previous Tregaron conveyancing practitioner who acted on my behalf when I initially purchased the house. The costs estimate issued of £550 has surprised me as I am not require purchase conveyancing - it’s just a bog-standard refinance.
The estimate does seem a tad overpriced. If you you were to look around you may be able to reduce the fees marginally by say a hundred pounds. On the other hand, providing that you were happy with the assistance the firm offered you couldlive to regret choosing an an untested lawyer. If is important to enquire that the solicitor can also act for Bank of Ireland.

My offer on a semi in Tregaron has been accepted, but there is a chain. The sellers have offered on a property, however it’s not been accepted yet, and are looking at other properties booked. I have instructed a nearby conveyancing solicitor in Tregaron. What should be my next step? When do I get the mortgage application with Clydesdale going?
It is normal to have anxieties where there is a chain as you are unlikely to want to incur costs too early (mortgage application is approx one thousand pounds, then valuation, Tregaron conveyancing search fees, etc). First, you should ensure that your lawyer is on the Clydesdale approved list. Regarding the subsequent steps this very much dictated by the specifics of your transaction, desire for the property and on the state of the market. During a rising market the majority of buyers will apply for a home loan with Clydesdale and pay for the valuation and only if it comes back ok would they ask their solicitor to proceed with the conveyancing in Tregaron.
Me and my brother own a semi-detached Edwardian house in Tregaron. Conveyancing solicitor represented me and Coventry Building Society. I did a free Land Registry search last week and I saw two entries: the first freehold, the second leasehold under the exact same property. If a house is not a freehold shouldn't I have been informed?
You need to assess the Freehold register you have again and check the Charges Register as there may be mention of a lease. The best way to be sure that you are also the registered owner of the leasehold and freehold title as well is to check (£3). It is not completely unheard of in Tregaron and other locations in the country and poses no real issues for owners other than when they buy they have to account for both freehold and leasehold interests when dealing with purchasers. You can also enquire as to the position with the conveyancing solicitor who conducted the work.
Over the last few months I have been searching for a leasehold apartment up to £235,500 and identified one close by in Tregaron I like with a park and railway links nearby, however it only has 51 remaining years left on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Tregaron for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake acquiring a short lease?
If you need a mortgage the remaining unexpired lease term may be problematic. Reduce the offer by the anticipated lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the current owner has owned the premises for at least 2 years you can request that they start the process of the extension and then assign it to you. You can add 90 years to the current lease and have £0 ground rent by law. You should speak to your conveyancing solicitor regarding this.
