How does conveyancing in Dunchurch differ for new build properties?
Most buyers of new build or newly converted property in Dunchurch contact us having been asked by the housebuilder to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the property is ready to move into. This is because new home sellers in Dunchurch usually 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 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 used to new build conveyancing in Dunchurch or who has acted in the same development.
I am looking for a leasehold apartment up to £305k and identified one near me in Dunchurch I like with amenity areas and transport links nearby, the downside is that it only has 49 years unexpired on the lease. There is not much else in Dunchurch for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake purchasing a lease with such few years left?
If you need a home loan that many years may be problematic. Discount the offer by the amount the lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the current proprietor has owned the premises for a minimum of twenty four months you could request that they start the process of the extension and pass it to you. You can add 90 years to the current lease with a zero ground rent applied. You should consult your conveyancing solicitor about this matter.
