How does conveyancing in Hemel Hempstead differ for newly converted properties?

Most buyers of new build property in Hemel Hempstead approach us having been asked by the developer to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the premises is ready to move into. This is because house builders in Hemel Hempstead usually buy 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 property lawyers 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 Hemel Hempstead or who has acted in the same development.

Due to the guidance of my in-laws I had a survey completed on a property in Hemel Hempstead ahead of appointing lawyers. I have been told that there is a flying freehold overhang to the property. Our surveyor advised that some banks will not give a mortgage on this type of house.

It depends who your proposed lender is. Lloyds has different instructions from Birmingham Midshires. Should you wish to call us we can look into this further with the appropriate mortgage company. If you lender is happy to lend one our lawyers can help as they are used to dealing with flying freeholds in Hemel Hempstead. Conveyancing can be more complicated and therefore you should check with your conveyancing solicitor in Hemel Hempstead to see if the conveyancing will be more expensive.
