How does conveyancing in Colne differ for newly converted properties?

Most buyers of new build residence in Colne approach us having been asked by the housebuilder to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the house is completed. This is because house builders in Colne tend to 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 conveyancers 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 Colne or who has acted in the same development.

We're new on the property ladder - had an offer accepted, yet the property agent advised that the vendor will only issue a contract if we appoint their preferred lawyers as they need a ‘quick sale’. Our preferred option is to instruct a high street conveyancer who is accustomed to conveyancing in Colne

We suspect that the seller is unaware of this demand. Should the owner want ‘a quick sale', alienating a serious purchaser is likely to cause more damage than good. Contact the vendors directly and explain that (a)you are keen to buy (b)you are ready to go, with mortgage lined up © you have nothing to sell (d) you intend to proceed fast (e)but you intend to use your preferred Colne conveyancing firm - not the ones that will earn their estate agent a introducer fee or meet his conveyancing figures set by corporate headquarters.

I have been searching for Colne online conveyancing estimates. Can I be assured that all the Colne firms that are identified on your site are on the lender conveyancing panel?

The law firms listed on our site have assured us via an online form that they are on the bank panel and agreed to advise us to take down their listing in the event of removal off of the mortgage company panel. To date we have not been informed by either a mortgage company or a member of the public that the data about a specific Colne conveyancing solicitor being on the bank conveyancing panel is not accurate.
