Most buyers of new build or newly converted property in Henley On Thames contact us having been asked by the developer to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the property is constructed. This is because developers in Henley On Thames tend to acquire the real estate, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties.

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.
