I have recentlybecome aware that Arc property Solicitors have closed. They conducted my conveyancing in Ashington for a purchase of a leasehold apartment 12 months ago. How can I be sure that the property is registered correctly in the name of the previous owner?
The quickest method to see if the property is registered to you, you can carry out a search of the land registry (£3.00). You can either do this yourself or ask a law firm to do this for you. If you are not registered you can seek help from one of a number of Ashington conveyancing specialists.
How does conveyancing in Ashington differ for newly converted properties?
Most buyers of new build premises in Ashington approach us having been asked by the developer to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the property is constructed. This is because builders in Ashington typically buy the site, 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 used to new build conveyancing in Ashington or who has acted in the same development.
