How does conveyancing in Navenby differ for newly converted properties?

Most buyers of new build residence in Navenby contact us having been asked by the seller to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the house is ready to move into. This is because developers in Navenby typically 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 used to new build conveyancing in Navenby or who has acted in the same development.

I have been pointed in your direction by numerous selling agents in Navenby to select a solicitor using your seach tool. Is there a financial upside for Estate Agents to offer your services ahead of another?

We refuse to make any referral fee for sending work our way. We found it would be just too difficult a fee because home movers will think, ‘Why is the agent getting a kickback? Why aren’t I getting any benefit too?’ So we decided to step away from that.

I am tempted by the attractive purchase price for a two apartments in Navenby both have about 50 years remaining on the lease term. Should I regard a short lease as a deal breaker?

There are plenty of short leases in Navenby. The lease is a legal document that entitles you to use the premises for a period of time. As a lease gets shorter the value of the lease decreases and results in it becoming more costly to extend the lease. This is why it is advisable to extend the lease term. More often than not it is difficult to sell a property with a short lease as mortgage companies may be reluctant to lend money on properties of this type. Lease extension can be a difficult process. We advise that you seek professional assistance from a solicitor and surveyor with experience in this arena.
