How does conveyancing in Wroxham differ for new build properties?
Most buyers of new build property in Wroxham contact us having been asked by the developer to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the house is finished. This is because new home sellers in Wroxham typically 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.
