For instance, the seller, estate agent and even potentially the mortgage company. Selecting a solicitor for your conveyancing in Corbridge should not be taken lightly as your conveyancer is your adviser, and is the SOLE person in the legal process whose responsibility is to look after your legal interests and to keep you safe.

How does conveyancing in Corbridge differ for newly converted properties?

Most buyers of new build or newly converted property in Corbridge come to us having been asked by the housebuilder to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the property is finished. This is because developers in Corbridge usually purchase 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 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 Corbridge or who has acted in the same development.

Estate agents have just been given the go-ahead to market my ground floor apartment in Corbridge. Conveyancing is yet to be initiated, but I have recently received a yearly maintenance charge demand – Do I pay up?

The sensible thing to do is pay the invoice as usual as all ground rent and maintenance payments should be allotted on completion, so you will be reimbursed by the buyer for the period running from after the completion date to the next payment date. Most management companies will not acknowledge the buyer until the service charges have been paid and are up to date, so it is important for both buyer and seller for the seller to show that they are up to date. Having a clear account will assist your cause and will leave you no worse off financially.
