I can't travel far from Crymych. Can you please clarify why all Crymych conveyancing practitioners are not on all lender panels?
Mortgage companies highlight the fact that solicitor-led fraud is thought to be responsible for millions of pounds of fraud every year.The dismissal of law firms from lender panels started with the rise in mortgage fraud, which prompted a thematic review by the Financial Services Authority in 2011. Its outcome included recommendations for lending institutions to review their conveyancing panels, which triggered a major policy change in the sector. It resulted in lenders purging less reputable firms off their official list of approved conveyancing practitioners .
At what point will exchange of contracts happen for domestic conveyancing in Crymych and am I required to attend the lawyers office?
If you are in close proximity to our conveyancing solicitors in Crymych you are welcome to come in to sign documents. However, the lender approved solicitors we recommend supply a national conveyancing service and give as equally comprehensive and professional a job for you when dealing with you digitally. The executing of the sale agreement is not the important part. Signing on the dotted line is necessary for the conveyancer to officially exchange when the time is right, which will usually be very shortly after signing. The procedure is nowadays normally dealt with by telephone and can be very rapid, although where a lengthy "chain" is in play, since the process requires the relevant party's solicitor (not necessarily a conveyancing solicitor in Crymych)to be in the office at the appropriate time.
My Conveyancer in Crymych is not listed on the TSB Approved Panel. Can I still retain my prefered solicitor notwithstanding that they are not on the TSB approved list?
Your options are as follows:
- Complete the purchase with your preferred Crymych solicitors but TSB will need to instruct a lawyer on their panel. This will inevitably rack up the total conveyancing charges and result in frustration.
- Get a new lawyer to act in the purchase, not forgetting to check they are on the TSB panel

Our conveyancer has advised that he intends to complete and exchange simultaneously on our sale of a £400,000 flat in Crymych next Thursday. The management company has quoted £384 for Landlord’s certificate, building insurance schedule and previous years statements of service charge. Is it legal for a freeholder to charge an administration fee for a leasehold conveyance in Crymych?
Crymych conveyancing on leasehold flats usually involves the buyer’s conveyancer sending questions for the landlord to answer. Although the landlord is under no legal obligation to answer these enquiries the majority will be content to do so. They may levy a reasonable administration fee for answering enquiries or supplying documentation. There is no upper cap for such fees. The average costs for the information that you are referring to is £350, in some situations it is in excess of £800. The management information fee required by the landlord must be accompanied by a summary of rights and obligations in respect of administration fees, otherwise the charge is technically not due. In reality one has little choice but to pay whatever is requested of you should you wish to exchange contracts with the buyer.
I purchased a 1st floor flat in Crymych, conveyancing having been completed 7 years ago. Can you let me have an estimated range of the fair premium for a lease extension? Equivalent flats in Crymych with over 90 years remaining are worth £180,000. The ground rent is £65 yearly. The lease terminates on 21st October 2084
You have 59 years unexpired we estimate the premium for your lease extension to be between £20,900 and £24,200 plus legals.
The suggested premium range above a general guide to costs for renewing a lease, but we cannot give you a more accurate figure without more comprehensive due diligence. You should not use the figures in a Notice of Claim or as an informal offer. There may be additional issues that need to be taken into account and clearly you should be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. Neither should you move forward based on this information without first getting professional advice.
