How does conveyancing in March differ for new build properties?

Most buyers of new build premises in March come to us having been asked by the seller to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the residence is finished. This is because developers in March typically buy 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 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 March or who has acted in the same development.

The solicitors carrying out our conveyancing in March has forwarded papers to review that reveal that the land is unregistered with epitome documents. How can it be that the property not yet recorded at HM Land Regsitry?

Whilst the vast majorities of properties in March are now registered with HM Land Registry there are still a few that are unregistered. Any property in March that has been remortgaged since the late 1980’s will have been registered at the HM Land Registry under the compulsory ‘first registration’ scheme. However, if a March property has not changed hands in that time then it’s likely the old fashioned title deeds will be the only evidence of ownership.Many March conveyancing solicitors should be familiar with such matters but where uncertainty exists the prevailing proposition nowadays is for the current owners to deal with the registration formalities first and then sell - this will predictably result in a significant delay.
