I am planning on selling our property in Bethnal Green and the buyers lawyers are claiming that there is a possibility that the property was built land that was not decontaminated. A high street Bethnal Green conveyancer would know that there is no such problem. It does beg the question why the purchasers instructed a factory type conveyancing practice rather than a conveyancing solicitor in Bethnal Green. Having lived in Bethnal Green for many years we know of no issue. Is it a good idea to get in touch with our local Authority to seek confirmation that the buyers are looking for.

How does conveyancing in Bethnal Green differ for newly converted properties?
Most buyers of new build premises in Bethnal Green approach us having been asked by the builder to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the premises is built. This is because house builders in Bethnal Green usually purchase the land, 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 used to new build conveyancing in Bethnal Green or who has acted in the same development.
