How does conveyancing in Ampthill differ for new build properties?

Most buyers of new build or newly converted property in Ampthill come to us having been asked by the developer to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the premises is ready to move into. This is because builders in Ampthill typically buy 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. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct conveyancing solicitors 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 Ampthill or who has acted in the same development.

Over the last few months I have been searching for a leasehold apartment up to £305k and identified one close by in Ampthill I like with a park and railway links nearby, however it's only got 52 remaining years left on the lease. There is not much else in Ampthill in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake purchasing a short lease?

Should you require a mortgage the remaining unexpired lease term will be problematic. Reduce the price by the anticipated lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the existing proprietor has owned the premises for a minimum of twenty four months you could ask them to start the process of the extension and pass it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the existing lease with a zero ground rent applied. You should speak to your conveyancing lawyer concerning this matter.
