It is possible to perform a search at the Land Registry, identify your house and obtain up to date copies of the property title for a small fee. If the property is Leasehold then the Land Registry will usually retain a file copy of the Registered Lease and again, a copy can be retrieved for £20 inclusive of VAT.
How does conveyancing in Mile End differ for new build properties?
Most buyers of new build premises in Mile End approach us having been asked by the builder to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the property is built. This is because builders in Mile End usually 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 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 used to new build conveyancing in Mile End or who has acted in the same development.
