I am need of leasehold conveyancing for a flat in a relatively new development (seven years built) in Roath Park. 95% of the appartments have already been disposed of. Do I need carry out the local searches for my conveyancing in Roath Park?
If you are purchasing a property with the assistance of a mortgage, your bank will need some (many) of the searches so you'll have no choice. If not, then Roath Park conveyancing searches are optional. No doubt your conveyancer, will ’encourage’, perhaps in the strongest possible terms, that you should not go ahead without searches, but he or she is duty bound in this regard. One thing to bear in mind; if you are likely to sell the house one day, it may be of interest to your future buyer what the searches contain. Sometimes houses with no practical issues can still throw up adverse search results. But if you demand that your lawyer to proceed without searches then your lawyer will have to follow your instructions or ask you to appoint a different lawyer for your conveyancing in Roath Park.

Searches are unlikely to be the root cause of delay in conveyancing in Roath Park.
It has been four months following my purchase conveyancing in Roath Park concluded. I have checked the Land Registry site which shows that I paid £200,000 when infact I paid £160,000. 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 property 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.

My plan is to acquire a ground floor apartment in Roath Park. Conveyancing lawyer is waiting for, from the owner, building insurance paperwork. This afternoon I was informed that the vendor needs to send the insurance schedule for the flat above in addition. Why does my conveyancer need to review the insurance for the other flat? Is it really necessary? We have been waiting for the last fortnight…
It is not unheard of in leasehold conveyancing in Roath Park to discover Conveyancing in Roath Park in a minority of cases reveals that the lease provides for the leasehold owners to insure their individual flats rather than the freeholder insuring the complete property - which is clearly better. Do double check with your property lawyer but it would appear that your lawyer is looking to establish that the entire building is insured. Insuring a ground floor flat is no help when it comes to rebuilding after a fire if the 1st floor cannot be reinstated for lack of insurance.
