I have been told that property searches are the main cause of delay in Uttoxeter house deals. Is that correct?

The Council of Property Search Organisations (CoPSO) released findings of a review by MoveWithUs that conveyancing searches do not figure within the top 10 causes of hindrances during the legal transfer of property.

Restrictive covenants can be picked up when reviewing land registry title as part of the legal transfer of property in Uttoxeter. An 1874 stipulation that was seen was ‘The houses to be erected on the estate are each to be of a uniform elevation in accordance with the drawings to be prepared or approved by the vendor’s surveyor…’

How does conveyancing in Uttoxeter differ for newly converted properties?

Most buyers of new build premises in Uttoxeter come to us having been asked by the seller to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the house is built. This is because builders in Uttoxeter tend to acquire 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 used to new build conveyancing in Uttoxeter or who has acted in the same development.

My partner has urged me to appoint his conveyancing solicitors in Uttoxeter. Should I use them?
