Conveyancers in Cardiff

If you are looking to buy or sell property in Cardiff, conveyancers will be able to ensure that the process is undertaken correctly. Conveyancers are licensed by the Council of Licensed Conveyancers and must undertake various courses and examinations in order to become licensed. Once licensed, conveyancers are able to undertake all aspects of conveyancing from the pre-contract searches to completion of the sale and registration of the new owners of the property with the Land Registry. Solicitors are also able to undertake conveyancing work – as long as this comes within their remit of knowledge, naturally. Property solicitors will be strong in this area.

House prices in Cardiff vary depending on the area; however, the average house price in Cardiff is £145,000 with house prices currently rising again. This average price is much lower than the national average which currently stands at £225,000. When buying in Cardiff, conveyancers who have offices near to you are preferable, as you can attend their offices quickly if necessary. This is sometimes the case when both sides become ready to exchange contracts and you need to attend the offices to sign paperwork.

In Cardiff, conveyancers will be alert to problems that are common amongst properties in Cardiff. Conveyancers will check, for example, for mine shafts in the area where your property is and will ask the Coal Mining Board to undertake a search of the area and provide written results to the conveyancers. Cardiff is situated on an area of the South Wales coalfield where high-quality anthracite coal is found, so conveyancers will also check if anyone holds rights to mine beneath your property as this could affect your future use of the property.
