I am about to complete on the purchase of a property in Ledbury but as a result of damage from the recent storms I have was able negotiate recompense from the current proprietors in the sum of £3k taking the form of a deduction in the price.

How does conveyancing in Ledbury differ for newly converted properties?
Most buyers of new build or newly converted property in Ledbury come to us having been asked by the housebuilder to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the residence is constructed. This is because house builders in Ledbury tend to acquire the land, 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 Ledbury or who has acted in the same development.
