How does conveyancing in Palmers Green differ for newly converted properties?
Most buyers of new build residence in Palmers Green approach us having been asked by the seller to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the property is built. This is because developers in Palmers Green usually acquire the real estate, 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 Palmers Green or who has acted in the same development.

I am short of a 10% deposit on my flat purchase in Palmers Green , but I am keen proceed. Do I have options?
One option is to try and agree a smaller deposit. Many property owners will accept a lesser deposit or even no deposit for a first time buyer or 100% mortgage. Be aware though that if you fail to complete you will still need to hand over a minimum of 10% of the purchase price regardless of how much deposit was agreed.
You can also agree a simultaneous exchange and completion as no deposit is required for this however neither party will be tied in until completion actually takes place and it can be risky if sellers change their mind at the last minute
