My husband and I are buying a newly constructed flat in Holloway and my solicitor is informing me that she has to the mortgage company to disclose incentives from the builder. I am on a tight deadline to sign contracts and I have no desire to prolong the conveyancing. Is my lawyer right?
You should not exchange unless you have been advised to do so by your property lawyer. A precondition to being on a lender panel is to comply with the UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook specifications. The CML Conveyancing Handbook requires that your lawyer have the appropriate Disclosure of Incentive form completed by the developer and accepted by your lender.
How does conveyancing in Holloway differ for new build properties?
Most buyers of new build property in Holloway contact us having been asked by the developer to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the property is completed. This is because house builders in Holloway typically 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. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct conveyancing solicitors 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 Holloway or who has acted in the same development.
