How does conveyancing in Market Bosworth differ for new build properties?
Most buyers of new build premises in Market Bosworth approach us having been asked by the builder to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the property is ready to move into. This is because builders in Market Bosworth 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 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 accustomed to new build conveyancing in Market Bosworth or who has acted in the same development.
Over the last few months I have been searching for a flat up to £235,500 and identified one close by in Market Bosworth I like with a park and station nearby, the downside is that it only has 49 remaining years left on the lease. There is not much else in Market Bosworth in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error purchasing a short lease?
Should you need a mortgage the shortness of the lease may be problematic. Reduce the price by the anticipated lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the existing proprietor has owned the premises for at least 2 years you could ask them to start the process of the extension and then assign it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the current lease term with a zero ground rent applied. You should speak to your conveyancing lawyer about this matter.

My husband and I are novice buyers - had an offer accepted, but the estate agent has warned us that the vendor will only go ahead if we use the agent's chosen lawyers as they want a ‘quick sale’. My instinct tells me that we should use a family conveyancer accustomed to conveyancing in Market Bosworth
It is improbable the sellers are behind this. Should the seller require ‘a quick sale', turning down a genuine buyer is going to damage their objectives. Avoid the agents and go straight to the sellers and make the point that (a)you are motivated buyers (b)you are ready to go, with finances arranged © you do not need to sell (d) you wish to move quickly (e)but you are going to appoint your preferred Market Bosworth conveyancing firm - not the ones that will provide the negotiator at the agency a kickback or hit his conveyancing targets set by senior management.
What advice can you give us when it comes to choosing a Market Bosworth conveyancing firm to carry out our lease extension conveyancing?
If you are instructing a property lawyer for lease extension works (regardless if they are a Market Bosworth conveyancing firm) it is essential that he or she should be familiar with the legislation and specialises in this area of work.

For most Market Bosworth leaseholds the outlay for major works tend not to be included within service charges, although a few managing agents in Market Bosworth require tenants to contribute towards a sinking fund and this is used to offset against larger works.
