How does conveyancing in Bamburgh differ for newly converted properties?

Most buyers of new build residence in Bamburgh contact us having been asked by the seller to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the property is constructed. This is because new home sellers in Bamburgh 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 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 Bamburgh or who has acted in the same development.

I am looking for a leasehold apartment up to £195,000 and found one round the corner in Bamburgh I like with open areas and transport links in the vicinity, the downside is that it only has 49 years on the lease. There is not much else in Bamburgh suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake acquiring a short lease?

If you need a home loan that many years will be a potential deal breaker. Discount the offer 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 2 years you may request that they start the process of the extension and pass it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the current lease term and have £0 ground rent by law. You should speak to your conveyancing solicitor about this matter.
