About to purchase a new build apartment in Edgwarebury. Conveyancing is daunting at the best of times but I have never purchased a new build flat before. What sort of enquires would be asked in new build legal work.

Please confirm the Lease plans are surveyor prepared. Has the Lease plan been approved by the Land Registry and if not when will they be lodged for this purpose? The Landlord must covenant to assume the management if the Management Company goes into liquidation or otherwise defaults in running the management scheme. If there are lifts in the building, please confirm that the owners of flats on the ground and basement floors will not be required to contribute towards the cost of maintenance and renewal. Will control of the Management Company (if any) be handed over to purchasers on completion of the last sale or earlier?
I am looking for a leasehold apartment up to £235,500 and identified one close by in Edgwarebury I like with amenity areas and station in the vicinity, however it's only got 51 remaining years left on the lease. There is not much else in Edgwarebury suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake buying a short lease?
Should you need a home loan the shortness of the lease will likely be a potential deal breaker. Discount the price by the amount the lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the current owner has owned the property for a minimum of 2 years you can ask them to commence the lease extension formalities and then assign it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the current lease with a zero ground rent applied. You should consult your conveyancing lawyer about this matter.
We're novice buyers - agreed a price, yet the selling agent informed us that the seller will only move forward if we appoint their recommended conveyancers as they need a ‘quick sale’. My instinct tells me that we should use a family conveyancer who is accustomed to conveyancing in Edgwarebury
We suspect that the owner is unaware of this request. If they desire ‘a quick sale', alienating a serious purchaser is is going to put the whole deal at risk. Speak to the vendors direct and explain that (a)you are genuine buyers (b)you are ready to go, with mortgage lined up © you have nothing to sell (d) you intend to proceed fast (e)but you intend to appoint your own,trusted Edgwarebury conveyancing solicitors - rather thanthose that will give the negotiator at the agency a commission or achieve conveyancing targets pre-set by head office.
