How does conveyancing in Shenley Brook End differ for new build properties?
Most buyers of new build property in Shenley Brook End come to us having been asked by the seller to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the premises is constructed. This is because house builders in Shenley Brook End typically buy 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 Shenley Brook End or who has acted in the same development.
I am looking for a flat up to £195,000 and found one near me in Shenley Brook End I like with open areas and station nearby, the downside is that it only has 49 remaining years left on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Shenley Brook End for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error purchasing a short lease?
If you require a mortgage the shortness of the lease may be an issue. 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 a minimum of twenty four months 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 term and have £0 ground rent by law. You should speak to your conveyancing solicitor about this.

My 20yr old son is just in the process of moving house, he had his mortgage in principle. One the seller agreed the offer on the house we contacted the bank to issue the formal offer. I was shocked to learn that banks do not accept all conveyancer, they need to be on their approved list, is this legal?
Banks ordinarily restrict either the type or the number of conveyancing solicitors on their panel. A common example of such restriction(s) being that a firm must have two or more partners. In addition to restricting the type of firm, some have decided to limit the number of firms they use to represent them. You should note that banks have no responsibility for the quality of advice provided by any Shenley Brook End solicitor on their panel. Mortgage fraud was a key driver in the rationalisation of conveyancing panels a few years ago and whilst there are differing views about the extent of solicitor involvement in some of that fraud. Statistics from the Land Registry reveal that thousands of law firms only carry out one or two conveyances a year. Those supporting conveyancing panel cuts ask why law firms should have the right to be on a Lender panel when clearly, conveyancing is not their speciality. To put it another way; would you want a conveyancing solicitor to represent you if you were charged with a crime? Unlikely.
