How does conveyancing in Broadclyst differ for newly converted properties?
Most buyers of new build or newly converted property in Broadclyst approach us having been asked by the housebuilder to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the house is built. This is because house builders in Broadclyst tend to buy 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 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 Broadclyst or who has acted in the same development.

My husband and I plan to purchase our first house in Broadclyst. Conveyancing solicitor has been selected. The financial consultant advised that a survey is not appropriate as the house is only 20 yrs old.
At the very least you should have a Home Buyer's Report. As the residence is over 10 years old the property will not come with a warranty, so you would be well advised not to take a risk. For a property that age with no signs of problems a Home Buyer's report may be enough. The report should highlight any apparent problems and recommend further investigation if relevant. Where there are any indications of material issues obtain a full structural survey.
