How does conveyancing in Emersons Green differ for newly converted properties?

Most buyers of new build residence in Emersons Green contact us having been asked by the housebuilder to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the property is built. This is because builders in Emersons Green tend to buy 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 Emersons Green or who has acted in the same development.

I am intending to rent out my leasehold flat in Emersons Green. Conveyancing solicitor who did the purchase is retired - so can't ask her. Is permission from the freeholder required?

The lease dictates the relationship between the freeholder and you the leaseholder; specifically, it will set out if subletting is prohibited, or permitted but only subject to certain conditions. The rule is that if the lease contains no expres ban or restriction, subletting is allowed. Most leases in Emersons Green do not contain an absolute prevention of subletting – such a provision would undoubtedly devalue the property. In most cases there is a basic requirement that the owner notifies the freeholder, possibly sending a copy of the sublease.

Emersons Green Conveyancing for Leasehold Flats - Sample of Queries before Purchasing

    Are there any major works on the horizon that will likely increase the service costs? How is the lease structured? Who manages the block?

Developers have put forward a conveyancer and I've received an estimate from them. They are almost two hundred pounds less expensive than my local Emersons Green conveyancing practitioner. What's the catch?

Builders frequently have lists of lawyers who expedite matters and who know the builder's contract and conveyancer. As many developers offer an inducement to select a preferred solicitor for this reason, any increased fees can be avoided and a developer will not recommend a conveyancing warehouse and run the risk of having the transaction delayed when they need an exchange inside a month. The argument for not agreeing to use the suggested conveyancing practitioner is that they may prove reluctant to fight for your interests for fear of upsetting the developer. If you worry that this may be the situation you should remain with your high street Emersons Green conveyancer.
