How does conveyancing in Chafford Hundred differ for new build properties?

Most buyers of new build or newly converted property in Chafford Hundred contact us having been asked by the housebuilder to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the premises is finished. This is because builders in Chafford Hundred typically 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 accustomed to new build conveyancing in Chafford Hundred or who has acted in the same development.

I happened to discover a web site which looks to be the perfect answer If there is a chance to get all this stuff completed via email that would be ideal. Should I be concerned? What are the potential pitfalls?

As usual with these online conveyancers you need to read ALL the small print - did you notice the extra charge for dealing with the mortgage?

Why can't I complete my conveyancing in Chafford Hundred on May bank holiday?

This is due to the fact that on completion the sale price needs to pass between the banks of the purchaser and owner’s conveyancing practitioner and at present this can only occur on a working day. So you can't complete on a saturday or sunday either.
