How does conveyancing in Buckhurst Hill differ for newly converted properties?

Most buyers of new build premises in Buckhurst Hill contact us having been asked by the housebuilder to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the property is completed. This is because house builders in Buckhurst Hill tend to acquire 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 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 Buckhurst Hill or who has acted in the same development.

We expect to complete our sale of a £225,000 maisonette in Buckhurst Hill in six days. The landlords agents has quoted £324 for Certificate of Compliance, insurance certificate and previous years statements of service charge. Is the landlord entitled to charge such fees for a flat conveyance in Buckhurst Hill?

Buckhurst Hill conveyancing on leasehold maisonettes more often than not involves the purchaser’s conveyancer sending questions for the landlord to answer. Although the landlord is under no legal obligation to address such questions the majority will be content to assist. They are at liberty to invoice a reasonable charge for responding to questions or supplying documentation. There is no upper cap for such fees. The average fee for the paperwork that you are referring to is over three hundred pounds, in some transactions it exceeds £800. The administration charge required by the landlord must be sent together with a synopsis of rights and obligations in respect of administration fees, otherwise the invoice is technically not due. In reality you have little option but to pay whatever is demanded should you wish to sell the property.
