How does conveyancing in St Annes differ for newly converted properties?

Most buyers of new build residence in St Annes contact us having been asked by the builder to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the property is completed. This is because house builders in St Annes tend to 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 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 accustomed to new build conveyancing in St Annes or who has acted in the same development.

The lawyers conducting our conveyancing in St Annes has forwarded papers to review that state the property is unregistered with epitome documents. Why is the property not registred at HM Land Regsitry?

Although most properties in St Annes are now registered with the Land Registry there are still some that remain unregistered. Any property in St Annes that has been transferred since the late 1980’s will have been registered at the HMLR under the compulsory ‘first registration’ scheme. However, if a St Annes property has not changed hands in that time then it’s likely the old fashioned title deeds will be the only evidence of ownership.Plenty of St Annes conveyancing lawyers should be able to handle this type of conveyancing but in the event that uncertainty prevails the usual proposition presently is for the seller to register the title first and then deal with the sale conveyance - this no doubt cause a drawn-out home move.
