Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Hornsey

Why would I instruct a Hornsey conveyancing firm when online conveyancers are more affordable?

Its a good idea to get 2 or 3 like-for-like quotes for conveyancing costs in Hornsey and you should seek a reasonable estimate but don’t waste your energy hunting for the lowest priced Hornsey conveyancer.

Emails can't replace a phone call and are no substitute for a face to face appointment.

How does conveyancing in Hornsey differ for new build properties?

Most buyers of new build premises in Hornsey come to us having been asked by the developer to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the premises is finished. This is because builders in Hornsey 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 accustomed to new build conveyancing in Hornsey or who has acted in the same development.

I am looking for a flat up to £305k and found one close by in Hornsey I like with open areas and railway links nearby, the downside is that it's only got 49 years on the lease. There is not much else in Hornsey for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error purchasing a lease with such few years left?

Should you need a home loan the shortness of the lease will likely be problematic. Reduce the offer by the expected lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the existing proprietor has owned the premises for a minimum of twenty four months you could ask them to start the process of the extension and pass it to you. You can add 90 years to the current lease with a zero ground rent applied. You should speak to your conveyancing solicitor about this.
