Ordinarily, even if your lawyer is not on the Nationwide conveyancing panel they can still act for you on your sale.

How does conveyancing in Milnrow differ for new build properties?

Most buyers of new build residence in Milnrow contact us having been asked by the developer to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the property is constructed. This is because new home sellers in Milnrow usually purchase 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 Milnrow or who has acted in the same development.

Due to the advice of my in-laws I had a survey completed on a house in Milnrow in advance of instructing solicitors. I have been told that there is a flying freehold element to the house. Our surveyor advised that some banks will refuse to issue a loan on this type of premises.

It varies from the lender to lender. Lloyds has different requirements from Birmingham Midshires. If you call us we can investigate further with the appropriate mortgage company. If you lender is happy to lend one our lawyers can assist as they are accustomed to dealing with flying freeholds in Milnrow. Conveyancing can be more complicated and therefore you should check with your conveyancing solicitor in Milnrow to see if the conveyancing will be more expensive.

My partner and I about to exchange on the purchase a house in Milnrow but as a consequence of wreckage from the recent storms I have agreed compensation from the vendor of four thousand pounds in the form of a deduction in the price. This was going to be addressed as part of the conveyancing process yet my bank will not agree to this. Why were they involved?

Any solicitor that is on a mortgage company approved list is obliged to disclose to the lender of any variations to the sale figure. If you did not allow your solicitor to disclose the price change to your bank then they would have no choice but to discontinue acting for you and the bank.
