How does conveyancing in Saltdean differ for newly converted properties?
Most buyers of new build premises in Saltdean approach us having been asked by the seller to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the residence is built. This is because developers in Saltdean tend to purchase 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 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 Saltdean or who has acted in the same development.
Over the last few months I have been searching for a flat up to £195,000 and found one close by in Saltdean I like with a park and station in the vicinity, however it's only got 52 remaining years left on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Saltdean suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error acquiring a lease with such few years left?
If you require a home loan the shortness of the lease may be problematic. Reduce the price by the amount the lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the existing owner has owned the premises for at least 2 years you may ask them to commence the lease extension formalities and pass it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the current lease with a zero ground rent applied. You should speak to your conveyancing lawyer concerning this matter.

I have been told by numerous friends to expect up to two months for Saltdean conveyancing to complete.This was a month ago. The property information was only forwarded from the vendors solicitor last week so does the clock start running now?
Don't bank on counting down any 6-8 week suggested period. Giving assurances as to precisely how how many weeks Saltdean conveyancing will take is an impossible task. Every Saltdean conveyancing transaction has it’s own unique set of issues. As a result your property lawyer will find it difficult to give representations as to how long it will take to conclude conveyancing in Saltdean.
