I have given 8 weeks notice to my existing landlord and have to vacate my let out apartment in Brixham by 6/1/2025. Conveyancing for my house purchase is progressing. Is it possible to complete in 4 weeks as I wish to avoid having to find temporary accommodation?
It is unwise to give notice on a rental unless exchange of contracts has taken place. Assuming that you have not already done so, notify to your solicitor and request that they seek the assistance the owners side, try to get a realistic time scale from them that all parties will look towards

How does conveyancing in Brixham differ for new build properties?
Most buyers of new build property in Brixham approach us having been asked by the developer to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the property is constructed. This is because house builders in Brixham 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 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 Brixham or who has acted in the same development.
