I went with a local solicitor for our conveyancing in Beddgelert last week. Going through the small print it is apparent thatwe are liable for charges even if the movedoes not proceed. Would I be best advised to use an on-line conveyancing brokerage offering no completion no charge conveyancing in Beddgelert?

It is usually a trade off in that if "No Sale No Fee" is offered then the fee levels will generally be uplifted to neutralise the transactions that do not go ahead. Do bear in mind that these arrangements generally do not cover outlay such your Beddgelert conveyancing search charges.

The owners have very pushy vendors who has insisted on a exclusivity agreement with a non-refundable deposit of 5k. Are such agreements the norm for Beddgelert conveyancing transactions?

There are a couple of primary concerns with signing a lock out contract (sometimes known as an exclusivity agreement) is that it can distract from making progress with the conveyancing process, so unless it requires minimal or no negotiation then it may transpire to be a cause of frustration and delay. It is not strongly advocated amongst Beddgelert conveyancing practitioners for this reason. The other main negative is the extent of the remedies available - an aggrieved buyer should not expect to secure an injunctive ruling by a court to prohibit the seller disposing of the property to another buyer, so the only remedy open via the agreement will be the recovery of abortive charges and, in rare circumstances, the additional payment of penalties.

Just had an offer accepted on a new build flat in Beddgelert. 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 conveyancing.

Here is a sample of a selection of leasehold new build enquiries that you can expect your new-build leasehold conveyancing in Beddgelert

Investor purchasers must be able to freely grant unsecured tenancies at market rents without requiring any consents. Will the freehold then be transferred for a nominal consideration (not exceeding £100) to the Management Company? 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. There must be mutual enforceability of lessee’s covenants. Will control of the Management Company (if any) be handed over to purchasers on completion of the last sale or earlier?

My fiance and I may need to sub-let our Beddgelert basement flat temporarily due to a career opportunity. We instructed a Beddgelert conveyancing firm in 2002 but they have closed and we did not think at the time seek any advice as to whether the lease allows us to sublet. How do we find out?

Even though your last Beddgelert conveyancing solicitor is no longer available you can review your lease to see if it allows you to sublet the premises. The accepted inference is that if the lease is silent, subletting is permitted. Quite often there is a prerequisite that you need to obtain consent via your landlord or some other party prior to subletting. The net result is that you cannot sublet in the absence of first obtaining permission. Such consent should not be unreasonably withheld. If the lease prohibits you from subletting the property you will need to ask your landlord if they are willing to waive this restriction.
