HSBC will need an independent valuation of the property. Your lawyer will not arrange this. Usually HSBC will appoint their own surveyor to do this, and you will have to pay for it. Remember that this is a valuation for mortgage purposes and not a survey. Your conveyancing practitioner will not organise the survey but they may be able to put you in touch with a local one that they recommend. RICS offers a find a surveyor service (just google it) where you can search for a qualified surveyor by your Jarrow postcode. As you are getting a mortgage with HSBC, you could contact them to see if they have a list of approved surveyors in Jarrow.

Once carried out (assuming no problems) it takes on average a fortnight for the mortgage offer to be issued. HSBC will issue the offer to you and your property lawyers. The transaction will then take it’s course according the nature and complexity of the conveyancing in Jarrow.

How does conveyancing in Jarrow differ for new build properties?

Most buyers of new build property in Jarrow contact us having been asked by the seller to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the premises is ready to move into. This is because new home sellers in Jarrow typically 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 Jarrow or who has acted in the same development.
