How does conveyancing in Oxted differ for new build properties?
Most buyers of new build residence in Oxted approach us having been asked by the builder to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the property is constructed. This is because developers in Oxted typically buy 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 conveyancing solicitors 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 Oxted or who has acted in the same development.
Over the last few months I have been searching for a ground for flat up to £305k and identified one near me in Oxted I like with a park and transport links nearby, however it only has 49 years unexpired on the lease. There is not much else in Oxted suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error buying a short lease?
Should you need a home loan the remaining unexpired lease term will likely be problematic. Reduce the price by the expected lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the current proprietor has owned the premises for at least 2 years you may ask them to start the process of the extension and then assign it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the current lease term with a zero ground rent applied. You should speak to your conveyancing lawyer about this.

Is there a difference between surveying and conveyancing in Oxted?
Conveyancing - in Oxted or anywhere in England and Wales - is the process of legally transferring legal title of property from one person to another. It involves the investigation of the title. Whether buying or selling, you should be aware of anything affecting the property such as proposals by government departments, illegal buildings, or outstanding rates. The conveyancer should conduct the appropriate searches and inquiries on the property. Surveying relates to the structure of a property itself. A surveyor will look at a house, flat and any outbuildings you are buying and will help you discover the condition of the building and, if there are problems, give you a powerful reason for reducing the price down or asking the seller to fix the defects before you complete your move.
