As far as conveyancing in Liss registration is no quicker or slower than anywhere else in the country.

At present in the region of 80% of submission are fully dealt with in less than three weeks but some can be subject to extensive delays. Historically registration occurs after the purchaser has moved in to the property thus an expedited registration is not typically an essential issue but if it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your conveyancer must communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for the application to be prioritised.

How does conveyancing in Liss differ for new build properties?

Most buyers of new build premises in Liss approach us having been asked by the seller to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the house is constructed. This is because builders in Liss usually acquire the site, 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 conveyancers 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 Liss or who has acted in the same development.
