How does conveyancing in Wooler differ for new build properties?

Most buyers of new build premises in Wooler contact us having been asked by the builder to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the residence is constructed. This is because new home sellers in Wooler usually 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 Wooler or who has acted in the same development.

I am looking for a ground for flat up to £305k and found one round the corner in Wooler I like with amenity areas and transport links in the vicinity, however it only has 61 years on the lease. There is not much else in Wooler in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error buying a short lease?

If you need a home loan the remaining unexpired lease term will likely be an issue. Reduce the offer by the amount the lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the current proprietor has owned the premises for a minimum of twenty four months you may request that they start the process of the extension and then assign it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the current lease term with a zero ground rent applied. You should consult your conveyancing solicitor about this.
