How does conveyancing in Stoke Poges differ for new build properties?

Most buyers of new build premises in Stoke Poges contact us having been asked by the housebuilder to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the property is built. This is because builders in Stoke Poges 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 used to new build conveyancing in Stoke Poges or who has acted in the same development.

We're new to the buying process - agreed a price, yet the selling agent has warned us that the vendor will only move forward if we appoint their preferred conveyancers as they want a ‘quick sale’. My instinct tells me that we should use a high street conveyancer accustomed to conveyancing in Stoke Poges

It is unlikely the sellers are driving this. If they want ‘a quick sale', alienating a genuine purchaser is likely to cause more damage than good. Contact the sellers directly and make the point that (a)you are keen to buy (b)you are excited to move forward, with finances in place © you have nothing to sell (d) you wish to move quickly (e)however you intend to use your preferred Stoke Poges conveyancing solicitors - rather thanthe ones that will give their negotiator at the agency a referral fee or hit his conveyancing targets pre-set by HQ.
