It has been 4 months following my purchase conveyancing in Grahame Park completed. I have checked the Land Registry site which shows that I paid £200,000 when infact I paid £180,000. Why the discrepancy?
The price paid figure is taken from the application to register the purchase. It is the figure included in the Transfer (the legal deed which transfers the premises from one person to the other) and referred to as the 'consideration' or purchase price. You can report an error in the price paid figure using the LR online form. In most cases errors result from typos so at first glance the figure. Do report it so they can double check and advise.
How does conveyancing in Grahame Park differ for new build properties?
Most buyers of new build property in Grahame Park contact us having been asked by the seller to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the residence is constructed. This is because house builders in Grahame Park usually acquire the land, 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 accustomed to new build conveyancing in Grahame Park or who has acted in the same development.
Over the last few months I have been searching for a leasehold apartment up to £195,000 and found one round the corner in Grahame Park I like with a park and transport links nearby, however it's only got 51 remaining years left on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Grahame Park for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake purchasing a short lease?
If you require a mortgage that many years may be a potential deal breaker. Discount the price by the expected lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the existing owner has owned the premises for at least 2 years you can 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 speak to your conveyancing solicitor about this matter.
