As someone unfamiliar with conveyancing in Rowen what is your top tip you can give me concerning the home moving process in Rowen

Not many law firms shout this from the rooftops but conveyancing in Rowen and elsewhere in Conwy is often a confrontational experience. In other words, when it comes to conveyancing there exists plenty of room for confrontation between you and other parties involved in the home moving process. For instance, the seller, selling agent and sometimes a bank. Appointing a law firm for your conveyancing in Rowen is a critical decision as your conveyancer is your adviser, and is the SOLE person in the transaction whose role it is to protect your legal interests and to keep you safe.

We are witnessing a definite increase in the "blame" culture- someone must be at fault for the process taking so long. You should always trust your solicitor above all other players in the home moving process.

My brother-in-law has suggested I instruct a conveyancing solicitor in Rowen. I I am struggling to find out whether they are on the Santander approved list of lawyers. Can you assist?

The first thing to do is call the conveyancer and enquire whether they can act for the lender. Alternatively you should get in touch with Santander who may be able to assist.

My wife and I are downsizing from our house in Rowen and according to the buyers it appears that there is a possibility that the property was constructed on contaminated land. A high street Rowen conveyancer would know this is not the case. For the life of me I don't know why the purchasers are using a nationwide conveyancing outfit rather than a conveyancing solicitor in Rowen. Having lived in Rowen for 4 years we know of no issue. Is it a good idea to get in touch with our local Authority to obtain clarification need.

It would appear that you have a conveyancing firm currently acting for you. What do they say? You need to check with your lawyer before you do anything. It is very possible that once the local authority has been informed of a potential issue it cannot be insured against (a bit like being diagnosed with a serious illness and then taking out health insurance to cover that same ailment)

Yesterday I discovered that there is a flying freehold element on a property I put an offer in a fortnight ago in what was supposed to be a quick, chain free conveyancing. Rowen is where the house is located. Is there any advice you can give?

Flying freeholds in Rowen are rare but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even though you don't necessarily need a conveyancing solicitor in Rowen you would need to get your solicitor to go through the deeds very carefully. Your bank may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Rowen may ascertain 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 premises.

As co-executor for the will of my grandfather I am selling a house in Neath but I am based in Rowen. My conveyancer (approximately 250 miles from meneeds me to sign a statutory declaration prior to completion. Can you recommend a conveyancing practitioner in Rowen who can attest this legal document for me?

strictly speaking you are not likely to be required to have the documents attested by a conveyancing solicitor. Ordinarily or notary public or solicitor will do regardless of whether they are Rowen based
