My partner and I are in the throws of viewing apartments in Crewe and I am about to put in an offer. Is it too early to have a solicitor in place? I am planning to take a mortgage with Clydesdale.

You should start obtaining conveyancing estimates from solicitors ASAP. Once you decide who you want to use and once your offer is accepted you can instruct them to work for you and forward their details on to the estate agent. As you are taking out a mortgage with Clydesdale, ask your prospective lawyers if they are on the Clydesdale conveyancing panel otherwise they can't do the mortgage legal work.

I can not work out if my mortgage offer requires a lease extension. I have called into my local Crewe building society branch on numerous occasions and was told it wasn't a problem and they would lend. My Crewe conveyancing solicitor - who is on the lender conveyancing panel- telephoned to say that they will not lend based on their specific requirements. Who do I believe?

As long as the solicitor is on the bank approved list, they must follow the CML Handbook requirements for the lender. Unless your lawyer obtains specific confirmation in writing that the bank will go ahead, your lawyer has no choice but to refrain from exchanging contract and committing you to the purchase. We would suggest that you ask the bank to contact your lawyer in writing confirming that they will accept the number of years remaining.

Most buyers of new build property in Crewe contact us having been asked by the developer to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the house is finished. This is because developers in Crewe usually buy the site, 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 Crewe or who has acted in the same development.
