How does conveyancing in Broughton Astley differ for newly converted properties?
Most buyers of new build or newly converted property in Broughton Astley come to us having been asked by the builder to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the house is ready to move into. This is because house builders in Broughton Astley tend to buy the real estate, 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 Broughton Astley or who has acted in the same development.
My fiance and I are planning to purchase a four room ground floor flatin Broughton Astley with a residential mortgage from a bank. We like our solicitor in Broughton Astley yet our lender advise he's not on their "panel". We have to appoint from the our bank panel firms or keep our Broughton Astley solicitor and pay for one of their panel ones to represent them. This seems very unfair; Can we not simply insist that our mortgage company use our Broughton Astley lawyer?
No, not really. The mortgage company mortgage offered to you is subject to conditions, one of which will be that lawyers will on the bank's conveyancing panel. Until recently, most mortgage companies had open panels, including most conveyancing solicitors in Broughton Astley : a borrower could choose one for themselves, as long as it was on the lender's panel. The lender would then simply instruct the borrower's lawyers to act for the lender, too. You can use your lender's panel lawyers or you could borrow from another lender which does not restrict your choice. Another option that might be available is for your lawyer to apply to be on the conveyancing panel for your bank.
