We are planning on selling our house in Esher and according to the buyers it appears that there is a possibility that the property was built on contaminated land. A local lawyer would know that there is no such problem. For the life of me I don't know why the purchasers used a web based conveyancing outfit as opposed to a conveyancing solicitor in Esher. Having lived in Esher for many years we know of no issue. Should we contact our local Authority to get confirmation need.
It sounds as though you may have a conveyancing solicitor already. Are they able to advise? You should check with your lawyer before you do anything. It is very possible that once the local authority has been informed of a potential issue it cannot be insured against (a bit like being diagnosed with a serious illness and then taking out life insurance to cover that same sickness)
How does conveyancing in Esher differ for newly converted properties?
Most buyers of new build premises in Esher approach us having been asked by the seller to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the house is constructed. This is because developers in Esher typically acquire 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 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 Esher or who has acted in the same development.
