Me and my partner are about to exchange on the purchase of a house in Newcastle Emlyn but as a consequence of damage from the recent storms I have managed to agree reparation from the owner of £2k taking the form of a reduction in the price. I had intended this to be dealt with as part of amending the contract however Yorkshire BS will not permit this. Why were they notified?
Any lawyer that is on the Yorkshire BS approved list is obliged to advise Yorkshire BS of any variations to the sale price. If you were to refuse your lawyer to notify the price change to Yorkshire BS then they would have to discontinue acting for you. In addition, Yorkshire BS and you would have to appoint a new lawyer for your conveyancing in Newcastle Emlyn.

Yesterday I discovered that there is a flying freehold issue on a property I have offered on last month in what should have been a simple, chain free conveyancing. Newcastle Emlyn is the location of the property. What do you suggest?
Flying freeholds in Newcastle Emlyn are unusual but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even though you don't necessarily need a conveyancing solicitor in Newcastle Emlyn you would need to get your solicitor to go through the deeds thoroughly. Your mortgage company may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Newcastle Emlyn 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 residence.
