How does conveyancing in Stony Stratford differ for new build properties?
Most buyers of new build or newly converted property in Stony Stratford approach us having been asked by the builder to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the house is finished. This is because developers in Stony Stratford usually acquire 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 used to new build conveyancing in Stony Stratford or who has acted in the same development.

A lease is a legal document that entitles you to use the property for a period of time.

Sometimes it is difficulties arise selling premises with a short lease as mortgage lenders may be unwilling to lend money on properties of this type. Lease enfranchisement can be a difficult process. We advise that you get professional help from a conveyancer and surveyor with experience in this area.
