I am only a couple days away from an exchange on a property in Knutsford and my parents have sent the ten percent deposit to my solicitor. I am now advised that as the deposit has not come from me my conveyancing practitioner needs to disclose this to my lender. Apparently, in also acting for the bank he must advise them that the balance of the purchase price is coming from anyone other than me. I informed the lender about my parents' contribution when I applied for the mortgage, so is it really appropriate for this now to delay the deal?

How does conveyancing in Knutsford differ for newly converted properties?

Most buyers of new build residence in Knutsford approach us having been asked by the builder to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the house is finished. This is because house builders in Knutsford 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 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 Knutsford or who has acted in the same development.
