How does conveyancing in Baguley differ for new build properties?

Most buyers of new build residence in Baguley contact us having been asked by the builder to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the residence is completed. This is because house builders in Baguley tend to acquire 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 conveyancers 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 Baguley or who has acted in the same development.

There is not much else in Baguley suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error buying a short lease?

Should you require a home loan that many years will be problematic. Reduce the price by the anticipated lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the existing proprietor has owned the property for a minimum of twenty four months you may ask them to start the process of the extension and pass it to you. You can add 90 years to the current lease term with a zero ground rent applied. You should speak to your conveyancing solicitor regarding this matter.

Sometimes these conveyancers might be known to one of the organisations as experts in their field, but occasionally there is an underlying commercial relationship behind the recommendation.
