How does conveyancing in Trimdon differ for new build properties?
Most buyers of new build or newly converted property in Trimdon contact us having been asked by the developer to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the premises is constructed. This is because developers in Trimdon typically 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 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 Trimdon or who has acted in the same development.

Should one remove a deceased person's name from the title register for a property in Trimdon?
If a Trimdon property is jointly owned and one of the proprietors dies, the name will not automatically be removed from the Land Registry title. You are not required to amend the title as in the event of a sale you would just be asked to evidence as to the reason the other proprietor is not included in the transfer, such as a grant of probate.
With a view to making things simpler in the future you may arrange to have the deceased party erased from the title register by submitting an application to the land registry with proof of the death. There is no fee from the Registry for this service.
