How does conveyancing in Penrith differ for new build properties?

Most buyers of new build residence in Penrith come to us having been asked by the developer to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the property is built. This is because developers in Penrith tend to buy the real estate, 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 Penrith or who has acted in the same development.

Yesterday I discovered that there is a flying freehold element on a house I have offered on last month in what was supposed to be a quick, no chain conveyancing. Penrith is where the house is located. What do you suggest?

Flying freeholds in Penrith are unusual but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even though you don't necessarily need a conveyancing solicitor in Penrith you would need to get your solicitor to go through the deeds thoroughly. Your bank may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Penrith may decide that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold property.

Me and my husband are selling a Penrith apartment left to us 5 years ago in 2012. I have over 12 years conveyancing experience and, although retired, wish to conduct the conveyancing. The purchaser's conveyancer has informed me that their mortgage company will not allow us to do our own conveyancing requiring the funds to be passed via a solicitor's bank account.

Mortgage instructions to property lawyers from all CML members specify that If the vendor is not legally represented the buyer’s lawyers should check whether the bank needs to be notified so that a decision can be made as to whether or not they are prepared to move forward.
