How does conveyancing in Chaddesley Corbett differ for new build properties?
Most buyers of new build premises in Chaddesley Corbett come to us having been asked by the developer to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the residence is completed. This is because developers in Chaddesley Corbett typically 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 conveyancing solicitors 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 Chaddesley Corbett or who has acted in the same development.

Do you have any advice for leasehold conveyancing in Chaddesley Corbett with the aim of saving time on the sale process?
- Much of the frustration in leasehold conveyancing in Chaddesley Corbett can be avoided if you get in touch lawyers the minute your agents start marketing the property and ask them to put together the leasehold information which will be required by the purchasers’ conveyancers. You may think that you are aware of the number of years left on your lease but it would be wise to verify this via your solicitors. A buyer’s conveyancer will be unlikely to recommend their client to to exchange contracts if the remaining number of years is less than 75 years. It is therefore important at an early stage that you identify whether the lease term requires a lease extension. If it does, contact your solicitors before you put your property on the market for sale. In the event that you altered the property did you need the Landlord’s permission? In particular have you installed wooden flooring? Chaddesley Corbett leases often stipulate that internal structural changes or addition of wooden flooring require a licence issued by the Landlord acquiescing to such changes. Where you fail to have the approvals to hand you should not communicate with the landlord without contacting your conveyancer before hand. If you are supposed to have a share in the freehold, you should ensure that you hold the original share certificate. Obtaining a re-issued share certificate is often a lengthy formality and delays many a Chaddesley Corbett home move. If a reissued share certificate is needed, do contact the company officers or managing agents (if relevant) for this as soon as possible. A minority of Chaddesley Corbett leases require Landlord’s consent to the sale and approval of the buyers. If this is the case, it would be prudent to notify your estate agents to make sure that the purchasers obtain bank and professional references. The bank reference will need to confirm that the buyers are able to meet the annual service charge and the actual amount of the service charge should be quoted in the bank’s letter. You will therefore need to provide your estate agents with the actual amount of the service charge so that they can pass this information on to the purchasers or their solicitors.

I am an executor of my recently deceased mother’s Will, with a property in Chaddesley Corbett which is to be sold. The bungalow has never been registered at the Land Registry and I'm told that some purchasers will insist that it is completed before they'll move forward. What's the mechanism for this?
In the circumstances that you have set out it seems prudent to apply to register in the names of the personal representative(s) as named in the probate and in their capacity as PRs. The Land Registry’s online guidance explains how to register for the first time and what is required re the deeds and forms. You would need to include and certified copy of the probate as well and complete the form FR1 to refer to the PRs as the applicant.
