About to purchase a new build flat in Abergavenny. Conveyancing is a frightening process at the best of times but I have never purchased a new build flat before. What sort of enquires would be asked in new build conveyancing.

Here is a sample of a selection of leasehold new build enquiries that you should expect your new-build leasehold conveyancing in Abergavenny

Forfeiture - bankruptcy or liquidation must not apply under this provision. Has the Lease plan been approved by the Land Registry and if not when will they be lodged for this purpose? Will the freehold then be transferred for a nominal consideration (not exceeding £100) to the Management Company? The Vendor must covenant to keep unsold units in good repair until long leases are granted therefore.

We're first time buyers - had an offer accepted, yet the agent informed us that the vendor will only move forward if we instruct the agent's preferred solicitors as they need a ‘quick sale’. We would rather use a high street solicitor accustomed to conveyancing in Abergavenny

We suspect that the owner is unaware of this ultimatum. Should the seller desire ‘a quick sale', alienating a genuine purchaser is going to damage their objectives. Speak to the owners direct and explain that (a)you are genuine purchasers (b)you are excited to move forward, with finances arranged © you are unencumbered (d) you intend to proceed fast (e)however you will continue to use your own,trusted Abergavenny conveyancing lawyers - not the ones that will provide their estate agent a kickback or achieve conveyancing thresholds pre-set by corporate headquarters.
