How does conveyancing in Shenley differ for newly converted properties?

Most buyers of new build or newly converted property in Shenley come to us having been asked by the seller to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the residence is constructed. This is because builders in Shenley tend to buy the land, 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 property lawyers 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 Shenley or who has acted in the same development.

This is something that we recommend - it is our preference to talk to you we do not take any clients on without you speaking to the conveyancer who will be conducting your conveyancing in Shenley.There is no ‘factory style conveyancing’ - each client is an important person, not a case reference. The solicitors that we put you in touch with believe that the fees you are quoted for your conveyancing in Shenley should be the amount on the final invoice that you are charged.
