How does conveyancing in Filey differ for newly converted properties?

Most buyers of new build residence in Filey contact us having been asked by the developer to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the property is ready to move into. This is because house builders in Filey usually acquire 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 conveyancers 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 used to new build conveyancing in Filey or who has acted in the same development.

I am looking for a leasehold apartment up to £245,000 and identified one close by in Filey I like with open areas and railway links in the vicinity, however it only has 52 years unexpired on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Filey suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error buying a lease with such few years left?

If you require a mortgage that many years will likely be problematic. Discount the price by the amount the lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the current owner has owned the premises for at least twenty four months you could ask them to commence the lease extension formalities and then assign it to you. You can add 90 years to the existing lease with a zero ground rent applied. You should consult your conveyancing solicitor about this matter.

As co-executor for the estate of my aunt I am selling a residence in Monmouth but live in Filey. My conveyancer (who is 300 miles awayrequires that I execute a statutory declaration before the transaction finalising. Could you suggest a conveyancing practitioner in Filey to witness this legal document for me?

Technically speaking you are unlikely to need to have the documents witnessed by a conveyancing solicitor. Ordinarily or notary public or solicitor will do regardless of whether they are located in Filey
