How does conveyancing in Walsingham differ for new build properties?
Most buyers of new build premises in Walsingham 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 Walsingham usually buy 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 accustomed to new build conveyancing in Walsingham or who has acted in the same development.
My husband and I are first time buyers - agreed a price, but the estate agent told us that the vendor will only proceed if we use the agent's chosen solicitors as they need a ‘quick sale’. We would rather use a family conveyancer who is familiar with conveyancing in Walsingham
It is unlikely the sellers are driving this. If they want ‘a quick sale', taking such a hostile approach to a motivated purchaser is likely to cause more damage than good. Avoid the agents and go straight to the owners and make sure they comprehend that (a)you are genuine buyers (b)you are excited to move forward, with finances arranged © you do not need to sell (d) you wish to move quickly (e)however you are going to appoint your preferred Walsingham conveyancing solicitors - as opposed tothe ones that will provide their negotiator at the agency a kickback or hit his conveyancing targets pre-set by HQ.
