How does conveyancing in Pattingham differ for newly converted properties?

Most buyers of new build property in Pattingham contact us having been asked by the developer to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the premises is ready to move into. This is because builders in Pattingham typically acquire 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 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 Pattingham or who has acted in the same development.

Am I best advised to use a Pattingham conveyancing lawyer based in the vicinity that I am buying? I have an old university friend who can conduct the legal work however her office is a couple of hundredmiles drive away.

Having local Pattingham know how is a plus. That being said nothing is more important than finding someone that will pull out all the stops for you. If you know people who instructed your friend and in the main were impressed that must outweigh using an unknown Pattingham conveyancing lawyer solely due to them being round the corner.
