How does conveyancing in Hampden Pk differ for newly converted properties?
Most buyers of new build premises in Hampden Pk approach us having been asked by the housebuilder to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the premises is ready to move into. This is because house builders in Hampden Pk usually buy 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 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 Hampden Pk or who has acted in the same development.
I am looking for a leasehold apartment up to £245,000 and found one close by in Hampden Pk I like with open areas and railway links in the vicinity, the downside is that it only has 52 remaining years left on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Hampden Pk for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error buying a short lease?
If you need a home loan the shortness of the lease will likely be a potential deal breaker. Discount the price by the expected lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the current proprietor has owned the property for at least twenty four months you can request that they start the process of the extension and then assign it to you. You can add 90 years to the existing lease and have £0 ground rent by law. You should consult your conveyancing lawyer regarding this.
