How does conveyancing in Woodside differ for new build properties?
Most buyers of new build residence in Woodside approach us having been asked by the builder to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the premises is ready to move into. This is because house builders in Woodside 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 Woodside or who has acted in the same development.
Over the last few months I have been searching for a leasehold apartment up to £235,500 and found one round the corner in Woodside I like with open areas and railway links nearby, however it only has 52 remaining years left on the lease. There is not much else in Woodside for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error acquiring a short lease?
Should you require a home loan that many years will likely be an issue. Reduce the offer by the expected lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the existing owner has owned the property for a minimum of 2 years you can request that they start the process of the extension and then assign it to you. You can add 90 years to the current lease with a zero ground rent applied. You should consult your conveyancing solicitor regarding this matter.
I'm refinancing my current property to a buy to let loan with Britannia and I will use the rest of the raised equity as a down payment on another house. The area we are talking about is Woodside. Will your conveyancers be able to act for both sets of mortgage companies and link together the two deals?
Do use our comparison tool on this site to be sure that the solicitors are approved by both mortgage companies. On the basis that they are your solicitor should be able to simultaneously deal with the two transactions but you should have a chat with you solicitor and specify your desired outcome and requirements.
