How does conveyancing in Market Bosworth differ for new build properties?

Most buyers of new build residence in Market Bosworth contact us having been asked by the builder to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the house is completed. This is because builders in Market Bosworth 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. 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 Market Bosworth or who has acted in the same development.

I am looking for a ground for flat up to £305k and found one close by in Market Bosworth I like with amenity areas and station in the vicinity, the downside is that it only has 52 remaining years left on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Market Bosworth for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error buying a short lease?

Should you need a mortgage the remaining unexpired lease term will likely be problematic. Reduce the offer by the amount the lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the current owner has owned the premises for at least twenty four months you could request that they 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 and have £0 ground rent by law. You should consult your conveyancing solicitor regarding this.

I am attracted to a couple of apartments in Market Bosworth both have in the region of 50 years remaining on the lease term. Will this present a problem?

There are no two ways about it. A leasehold apartment in Market Bosworth is a deteriorating asset as a result of the reducing lease term. The closer the lease gets to its expiry date, the more it adversely affects the value of the property. For most buyers and mortgage companies, leases with less than eighty years become less and less attractive. On a more positive note, leaseholders can extend their leases by serving a Section 42 Notice. One stipulation is that they must have owned the premises for two years (unlike a Section 13 notice for purchasing the freehold, when leaseholders can participate from day one of ownership). When successful, they will have the right to an extension of 90 years to the current term and ground rent is effectively reduced to zero. Before moving forward with a purchase of premises with a short lease term remaining you should talk to a solicitor specialising in lease extensions and leasehold enfranchisement. We are are happy to put you in touch with Market Bosworth conveyancing experts who will explain the options available to you during an initial telephone conversation free of charge. A more straightforward and quicker method of extending would be to contact your landlord directly and sound him out on the prospect of extending the lease. You may find he or she is happy to negotiate informally and willing to consider your offer straight off, without having to involve anyone else. This will save you time and money and it could help you reach a lower price on the lease. You need to ensure that the agreed terms represent good long-term value compared with the standard benefits of the Section 42 Notice and that onerous clauses are not inserted into any redrafting of the lease.

My husband and I are purchasing a three bedroom ground floor flatin Market Bosworth with a home loan from a lender. We have selected a solicitor in Market Bosworth yet our mortgage company says she’s not on their "panel". It seems we have little choice but to instruct one of the our lender panel firms or stay with our Market Bosworth solicitor and incur the extra fees for one of their panel ones to represent our bank. This seems very unfair; is there anything we can do?

Unfortunately,no. The bank mortgage offered to you is subject to conditions, one of which will be that solicitors will on the lender's conveyancing panel. in the past, most lenders had open panels, including most conveyancing solicitors in Market Bosworth : a borrower could choose one for themselves, as long as it was on the lender's panel. The lender would then simply instruct the borrower's lawyers to act for the lender, too. You can use your lender's panel lawyers or you could borrow from another lender which does not restrict your choice. A further alternative is for your solicitors to apply to be on the conveyancing panel for your lender.
