I plan on purchasing a flat in Wrexham. My property lawyer is not listed on the mortgage company solicitor list. Am I still permitted to use my Wrexham conveyancing solicitor notwithstanding that they are not on the bank panel of approved conveyancing solicitors?

You must have a conveyancer to deal with the legal work required if you require a loan to buy your home. They will carry out all the necessary due diligence on the property, ensuring that you’re properly registered as the owner and ensure that all the required mortgage documentation is in order. One could instruct a Wrexham conveyancer of your choice. However, where the solicitor selected is not a member of the mortgage company approved list further fees will arise as separate legal representation will be required by them. Lender panel applications may be submitted, so where your conveyancer has not previously sought membership they should do so.

I am purchasing a 4 bedroom semi-detached house in Wrexham. The intention is to carry out an extension to the side at the house.Will the conveyancing process involve checks to see if these works are prohibited?

Your property lawyer will review the deeds as conveyancing in Wrexham will on occasion reveal restrictions in the title deeds which restrict certain works or require the permission of another owner.

Some areas are designated conservation areas and special planning restrictions apply which frequently prevent or affect extensions. You should check these things with a surveyor before you commit yourself to a purchase.

I am due to exchange contracts on my house. I had a double glazing fitted in May 2010, but did not receive a FENSA certificate or Building Regulation Certificate. My purchaser’s lender, TSB are being a right pain. The Wrexham solicitor who is on the TSB conveyancing panel is saying indemnity insurance will be fine but TSB are requiring a building regulation certificate. Why do TSB have a conveyancing panel if they don't accept advice from them?

It is probably the case that TSB have referred the matter to their valuer. The reason why TSB may not want to accept indemnity insurance is because it does not give them any reassurance that the double glazing was correctly and safely installed. The indemnity insurance merely protects against enforcement action which is very unlikely anyway.

Have purchased a a detached house in Wrexham , how long should it take for the Land Registry to register my title? My Wrexham conveyancing solicitor has been very slow, so I want to be certain that my ownership is recorded.

As far as conveyancing in Wrexham registration is no faster or slower than the rest of the country.

Historically registration takes place once the new owner is living at the premises thus an expedited registration is not usually an essential issue yet where it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your conveyancer could speak with the land registry and explain the circumstances.
