We are close to exchanging contracts on the sale of our home in North Baddesley and according to the buyers it appears that there is a risk of it being constructed land that was not decontaminated.

It sounds as though you may have a conveyancing firm currently acting for you. What do they say? You need to check with your lawyer before you do anything.

It has been 2 months following my purchase conveyancing in North Baddesley completed. I have checked the Land Registry website which shows that I paid £200,000 when infact I paid £180,000. Why the discrepancy?

How does conveyancing in North Baddesley differ for newly converted properties?
Most buyers of new build premises in North Baddesley come to us having been asked by the developer to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the residence is constructed. This is because house builders in North Baddesley 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 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. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are used to new build conveyancing in North Baddesley or who has acted in the same development.
