How does conveyancing in Thornaby on Tees differ for new build properties?

Most buyers of new build residence in Thornaby on Tees approach us having been asked by the seller to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the premises is constructed. This is because builders in Thornaby on Tees usually buy the real estate, 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 Thornaby on Tees or who has acted in the same development.

I decided to have a survey completed on a property in Thornaby on Tees prior to retaining solicitors. I have been told that there is a flying freehold element to the property. My surveyor has said that some banks may refuse to grant a mortgage on a flying freehold premises.

If you lender is happy to lend one our lawyers can assist as they are used to dealing with flying freeholds in Thornaby on Tees.
