How does conveyancing in Edgware differ for new build properties?
Most buyers of new build property in Edgware contact us having been asked by the seller to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the residence is completed. This is because builders in Edgware usually buy 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.
