We are aiming to move house in June. Should my conveyancing solicitor update the removal company on the completion day. Incidentally, can you suggest a removal company in Reynoldston. Conveyancing solicitor was chosen before I stumbled across this page.

On the day of completion you can pick up the house keys from the selling agent however this should only happen when the sellers solicitors inform the agent that the monies to complete are in and the keys can be released. Subsequently you should inform the removal company that they can start moving you in. As a matter of policy we do not recommend a specific removal organisation but can help you find a conveyancing in Reynoldston or a firm that specialises in conveyancing in Reynoldston.

I am the only recipient of my late mum's estate and I have everything in my name alone, including the house in Reynoldston. The Reynoldston property was put into my name in March. I plan to dispose of the property. I do know about the CML 6 month 'rule', meaning my property ownership could be considered the same way as though I had purchased the house in March. Is the property unsalable for six months?

The CML handbook obliges conveyancers to: "report to us immediately if the owner or registered proprietor has been registered for less than six months." Technically you may be caught by that. How sensible a view banks take of it, depend on the bank as this requirement is chiefly there to identify the purchase and immediately sell or the flipping of property.

At last I have had an offer on an apartment in Reynoldston accepted, but there is a chain. The vendors have offered on on an apartment, however it’s not yet agreed to, and have viewings of other flats in the pipeline. I have selected a bricks and mortar conveyancing solicitor in Reynoldston. What do I do now? At what stage should I apply for the mortgage with HSBC?

It is understandable to have concerns where there is a chain as you are unlikely to want to incur costs prematurely (mortgage application is in the region of one thousand pounds, then survey, Reynoldston conveyancing search fees, etc). The first thing to do is ensure that your property lawyer is on the HSBC approved list. Concerning the next stages this very much depends on the circumstances of your case, motivation for this property and on the state of the market. In a rising market many buyers would apply for the mortgage with HSBC and pay for the valuation and only if it was satisfactory would they pay their conveyancing practitioner to proceed with the conveyancing in Reynoldston.

I acquired my house on 5 March and my personal details are still not registered. Should I be concerned? My conveyancing solicitor in Reynoldston said it should be recorded in less than a month. Are transfers in Reynoldston uniquely lengthy to register?

There is nothing unique about conveyancing in Reynoldston registration formalities. Rather than based on location, timescales can adjust depending on the party submitting the application, whether it is in order and whether the Land registry must send notices to any interested parties. At present in the region of 80% of submission are fully dealt with in less than three weeks but occasionally there can be protracted hold-ups. Historically registration occurs once the purchaser has moved in to the premises so 'speed' is not usually top priority but where it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your lawyers should contact the land registry and explain the circumstances.

I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold element on a property I have offered on last month in what was supposed to be a simple, chain free conveyancing. Reynoldston is the location of the property. Can you shed any light on this issue?

Flying freeholds in Reynoldston are unusual but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Reynoldston you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds very carefully. Your mortgage company may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Reynoldston may determine that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold property.

When it comes to my conveyancing in Reynoldston should I be charged VAT on the following: (1) Land reg fee on purchase (2) Pre - completion search fee (3) SDLT E submission on purchase (4) Bank TT fee

(1) Land reg fee on purchase - No (2) Pre - completion search fees -No, (such conveyancing searches are HMLR ones and means £4 and possibly £2 bankruptcy per name on your mortgage) (3) SDLT E submission on your purchase - There is no VAT on Stamp Duty. However if the firm is charging a stamp duty e-submission fee as part of their services - some Reynoldston conveyancers do - that will incur VAT(4) Bank transfer fee - Yes it is for the property lawyer's time in submitting the funds this way.
