How does conveyancing in Romiley differ for newly converted properties?
Most buyers of new build or newly converted property in Romiley approach us having been asked by the developer to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the property is ready to move into. This is because developers in Romiley usually buy 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 used to new build conveyancing in Romiley or who has acted in the same development.

I have just appointed agents to market my 2 bed apartment in Romiley.Conveyancing is yet to be initiated however I have recently received a half-yearly service charge demand – should I leave it to the buyer to sort out?
It best that you pay the service charge as normal given that all rents and maintenance charges should be allottedas part of the financial calculations for completion monies, so you will be reimbursed by the purchaser for the period running from after the completion date to the next payment date. Most managing agents will not acknowledge the buyer unless the service charges have been paid and are up to date so it is important for both buyer and seller for the seller to show that they are up to date. Having a clear account will assist your cause and will leave you no worse off financially
