Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Williton

The owners have rather pushy vendors who has suggested a exclusivity contract with a non-refundable deposit 6,000. Is it wise to enter into such agreements?

This kind of contract is not the norm in Williton, conveyancers are not keen on them as they detract from focusing on the main conveyancing focus and if you end up losing your deposit then the lawyer is left exposed. Secondly, there is no assurance that just because the owner has entered into an exclusivity contract they will complete the sale with you. They may be inclined to break the agreement if they receive a large enough incentive to do so because a wronged claimant with the benefit of a lockoutcontract will still be duty bound to establish consequential losses from the breach and this may not compare to the financial upside that your vendor may gain by breaking the contract, no matter how morally reprehensible that may be.

How does conveyancing in Williton differ for new build properties?

Most buyers of new build or newly converted property in Williton approach us having been asked by the builder to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the premises is finished. This is because new home sellers in Williton usually buy 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 accustomed to new build conveyancing in Williton or who has acted in the same development.
