I am the only recipient of my late grandmother’s will with all property in now in my sole name, including the house in Anlaby. The Anlaby property was put into my name in June. I now wish to sell up.

This is because new home sellers in Anlaby tend to buy the land, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties.

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 used to new build conveyancing in Anlaby or who has acted in the same development.
