How does conveyancing in Dalton in Furness differ for newly converted properties?

Most buyers of new build residence in Dalton in Furness come to us having been asked by the seller to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the property is ready to move into. This is because developers in Dalton in Furness tend to purchase the site, 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 Dalton in Furness or who has acted in the same development.

I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold issue on a house I put an offer in a fortnight ago in what should have been a quick, no chain conveyancing. Dalton in Furness is the location of the property. What do you suggest?

Flying freeholds in Dalton in Furness are unusual but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses.

Your bank may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy.

If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold property.

Why can I not complete our conveyancing in Dalton in Furness on May bank holiday?

This is due to the fact that on completion the money will be transferred electronically between the banks of the purchaser and seller's solicitor and currently this can only happen on a business day. So you can't complete on a weekend either.
