I am under pressure from the mortgagee in possession of a property in Belton to exchange within four weeks. What can be done to hasten the buying process?
Where the seller is applying pressure to exchange it is highly recommended that your lawyer is familiar with the location as they will make use of local connections and insight. It is even conceivable that they would have handled previoushomes in the same street. Therefore consider using a Belton conveyancing firm. Second, be sure that the lawyer is on the lender panel. It is believed that just under twenty per cent of Belton conveyancing deals are held up or derailed after finding out that a purchaser’s solicitor was not on their banks member panel. In many cases this discovery resulted in the home move being delayed by as much as three weeks. It is understood that this issue affects in the region of 100,000 home moves annually. Almost all Belton conveyancing firms can not act for certain mortgage companies so do check at the outset.
How does conveyancing in Belton differ for newly converted properties?
Most buyers of new build property in Belton contact us having been asked by the seller to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the property is constructed. This is because house builders in Belton usually purchase 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 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 used to new build conveyancing in Belton or who has acted in the same development.
I am looking for a leasehold apartment up to £245,000 and found one round the corner in Belton I like with a park and transport links in the vicinity, however it's only got 61 years on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Belton for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error purchasing a lease with such few years left?
If you need a home loan the shortness of the lease may be a potential deal breaker. Discount the price by the amount the lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the existing proprietor has owned the property for a minimum of 2 years you can ask them to start the process of the extension and then assign it to you. You can add 90 years to the current lease term and have £0 ground rent by law. You should speak to your conveyancing lawyer about this.
