What does a Rhyl property lawyer do?

A conveyancer or solicitor steers the buyer through the legal aspects of buying a home.

Your lawyer will perform due diligence on the property, including local authority searches (e.g. from Denbighshire Council), raising questions about how the seller has used the property and completing the registration of your ownership with HM Land Registry.

In addition to standard searches, Rhyl conveyancing solicitors may also undertake flood risk checks and mining searches.

Are you purchasing a property with a mortgage?

During the house buying process, your solicitor must also complete the legal work on behalf of the bank. Panel approval will mean your solicitor can act for your lender.

Our chosen panel solicitors have established relationships with the majority of lenders, facilitating a quicker completion of your transaction.

Selling a house or flat in Rhyl

As part of the property selling process in Rhyl, your lawyer will compile key documents, including ID forms and the contract of sale.

The duties of a seller's solicitor includes responding to enquiries from the buyer's solicitor and dealing with complications like a flying freehold.

In order to facilitate a faster completion, your conveyancer will work with both sides, such as estate agents, landlords and lenders.

Could the sale of a leasehold property be delayed?

Yes. The legal work for selling leasehold properties can be seriously delayed.

The solicitor acting for the buyer will need to review these documents, including a copy of the freehold property's buildings insurance. The time it takes your solicitor to gather this paperwork is the common cause of such delays.

It can take a long time to gather these details if it is difficult to contact the managing agent or landlord, so the solicitor should get this underway even before you have found a buyer.

What are typical Rhyl conveyancing fees?

On a conveyancing quote, the various costs or charges can be split into two types:

Solicitors' fees

These fees are what your conveyancer charges you for the tasks they complete during your property transaction. Your solicitor's quote will set out the legal fees (inc. VAT) to be paid when the conveyancing transaction completes.

Disbursements

Disbursements are third-party costs paid by your solicitor on your behalf. Examples of disbursements include Stamp Duty and property searches.

Check what's included in your quote

Some firms set out additional charges in the small print. This can lead to an inflated final bill. If you are comparing quotes, watch out for undisclosed fees missing from the original quote.
