This is because developers in Ettington usually purchase 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.

My husband and I are novice buyers - agreed a price, but the estate agent told us that the vendor will only proceed if we use their preferred lawyers as they are insisting on an ‘expedited deal’.

We suspect that the owner is unaware of this demand. Should the vendor want ‘a quick sale', turning down a serious buyer is not the way to achieve this. Bypass the agents and go straight to the sellers and explain that (a)you are keen to buy (b)you are excited to move forward, with mortgage lined up © you are unencumbered (d) you wish to move quickly (e)but you are going to use your preferred Ettington conveyancing firm - rather thanthe ones that will give their estate agent a introducer fee or achieve conveyancing targets pre-set by HQ.

Sometimes it is difficulties arise selling premises with a short lease as mortgage companies may be reluctant to lend money on such properties. Lease extension can be a protracted process. We recommend you get professional help from a conveyancer and surveyor with experience in this field.
