We were just about to sign contracts for a semi detached house in Allendale. We encountered a stumbling block. The loan offer with HSBC Bank expires on 20/7/2026 but the sellers are putting forward a completion date of 22/7/2026. Can one prolong the mortgage offer?

How does conveyancing in Allendale differ for newly converted properties?

Most buyers of new build property in Allendale approach us having been asked by the seller to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the residence is finished. This is because builders in Allendale tend to acquire the land, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct property lawyers as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are accustomed to new build conveyancing in Allendale or who has acted in the same development.
