How does conveyancing in Haverfordwest differ for newly converted properties?
Most buyers of new build or newly converted property in Haverfordwest approach us having been asked by the seller to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the property is completed. This is because developers in Haverfordwest typically acquire 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 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 Haverfordwest or who has acted in the same development.
I have been on the look out for a ground for flat up to £235,500 and found one close by in Haverfordwest I like with a park and railway links nearby, the downside is that it's only got 51 remaining years left on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Haverfordwest for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error purchasing a short lease?
Should you require a home loan the remaining unexpired lease term will likely be problematic. Discount the price by the amount the lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the current proprietor has owned the premises for a minimum of twenty four months you can ask them to commence the lease extension formalities and then assign it to you. You can add 90 years to the existing lease term with a zero ground rent applied. You should speak to your conveyancing lawyer regarding this matter.
