I am considering applying for a Santander mortgage for purchase of a newly converted (under development) in East Cowes with 70% loan to value. Is it compulsory to choose a solicitor on the conveyancing panel for Santander ?
In theory, you could use a solicitor that is not on the Santander conveyancing panel, but Santander would require one of their panel solicitors to be instructed to act in their interests, and you'd have to pay for this - so most people instruct a panel solicitor. It's also easier, as otherwise you'd have to deal with two solicitors for the same transaction.
How does conveyancing in East Cowes differ for new build properties?
Most buyers of new build property in East Cowes come to us having been asked by the developer to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the residence is built. This is because new home sellers in East Cowes usually acquire 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 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 East Cowes or who has acted in the same development.
I have been on the look out for a flat up to £195,000 and identified one near me in East Cowes I like with a park and railway links nearby, the downside is that it only has 61 years on the lease. I can't really find anything else in East Cowes suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error purchasing a short lease?
Should you need a mortgage that many years may be an issue. Discount the price by the anticipated lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the current proprietor has owned the premises for at least 2 years you may ask them to commence the lease extension formalities and then assign it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the existing lease with a zero ground rent applied. You should speak to your conveyancing lawyer about this.
