How does conveyancing in Barton le Willows differ for newly converted properties?
Most buyers of new build property in Barton le Willows approach us having been asked by the developer to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the house is ready to move into. This is because builders in Barton le Willows typically purchase 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 accustomed to new build conveyancing in Barton le Willows or who has acted in the same development.
I am looking for a ground for flat up to £245,000 and found one near me in Barton le Willows I like with a park and station nearby, the downside is that it's only got 61 remaining years left on the lease. There is not much else in Barton le Willows for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error purchasing a lease with such few years left?
If you require a mortgage the shortness of the lease will be problematic. Discount the price by the anticipated lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the existing proprietor has owned the premises for at least twenty four months you may request that they start the process of the extension and then assign it to you. You can add 90 years to the existing lease term and have £0 ground rent by law. You should consult your conveyancing lawyer concerning this matter.

Is there a reason that Barton le Willows conveyancing fees differ for leasehold and freehold properties?
Inevitably there is increased work required in leasehold conveyancing. Barton le Willows has many leasehold properties. There is more paperwork involved in the purchase: for example, the lease and leasehold information (including current service charge, ground rent and buildings insurance details) obtained from the freeholder or managing agents. There are strict criteria that the lease must meet in order to be acceptable to a mortgage company. If it does not meet these requirements, the lease must be amended, which can involve additional expense for the seller.
