How does conveyancing in Cheetham differ for new build properties?
Most buyers of new build premises in Cheetham come to us having been asked by the builder to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the residence is completed. This is because new home sellers in Cheetham typically purchase 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 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 Cheetham or who has acted in the same development.
I am looking for a flat up to £195,000 and found one near me in Cheetham I like with a park and railway links nearby, the downside is that it only has 49 remaining years left on the lease. There is not much else in Cheetham suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake buying a short lease?
If you need a home loan the shortness of the lease may be an issue. Discount the price by the anticipated lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the existing owner has owned the property for a minimum of 2 years you could ask them to start the process of the extension and pass it to you. You can add 90 years to the existing lease term with a zero ground rent applied. You should speak to your conveyancing lawyer regarding this.

I am in need of some leasehold conveyancing in Cheetham. Before I set the wheels in motion I require certainty as to the unexpired term of the lease.
Assuming the lease is recorded at the land registry - and 99.9% are in Cheetham - then the leasehold title will always include the basic details of the lease, namely the date; the term; and the original parties. From a conveyancing perspective such details then enable any prospective buyer and lender to confirm that any lease they are looking at is the one relevant to that title. For any other purpose, such as confirming how long the term was granted for and calculating what is left, then the register should be sufficient on it's own.
