The role of solicitors specialising in conveyancing in North Wales is varied.
One of the first tasks they complete when employed by a buyer is to open a purchase file. The information contained in this includes copies of passports and birth certificates, evidence of national insurance numbers and all contact information such as phone numbers and email addresses of purchaser or purchasers. It is also important for the buyer to provide other details for the file such as confirmation of mortgage and deposit.
Searches are another vital part of the purchasing process and legal experts will start these and handle the payment needed. These will include an environmental, water and drainage searches and local authority searches. A solicitor will also maintain communications with the seller’s legal team and deal with issues such as delays due to chains and deal with the memorandum of sale.
Solicitors in North Wales will also deal with all other paperwork like Property Information forms and Fittings and Contents forms. Final purchase documents should be handled by legal advisors who will also ensure that signatures and dates are valid and legal. Contract exchange and completion are also part of the legal process, and the change of ownership of the property with land registry is also a task of the solicitor.
