How does conveyancing in Hope Valley differ for new build properties?

Most buyers of new build or newly converted property in Hope Valley approach us having been asked by the developer to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the house is finished. This is because house builders in Hope Valley 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. 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 used to new build conveyancing in Hope Valley or who has acted in the same development.

I have just appointed agents to market my ground floor apartment in Hope Valley. Conveyancing has not commenced, but I have recently had a half-yearly service charge demand – Do I pay up?

It best that you discharge the invoice as you normally would given that all rents and service invoices will be apportioned on completion, so you should recover the relevant percentage by the purchaser for the period running from after the completion date to the subsequent invoice date. Most management companies will not acknowledge the buyer unless the service charges have been paid and are up to date, so it is important for both buyer and seller for the seller to show that they are up to date. Having a clear account will assist your cause and will leave you no worse off financially.
