How does conveyancing in Sprowston differ for new build properties?
Most buyers of new build or newly converted property in Sprowston approach us having been asked by the developer to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the premises is built. This is because builders in Sprowston 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 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 accustomed to new build conveyancing in Sprowston or who has acted in the same development.
Over the last few months I have been searching for a ground for flat up to £195,000 and identified one near me in Sprowston I like with open areas and railway links 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 Sprowston suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake purchasing a short lease?
If you need a mortgage the shortness of the lease may be an issue. Discount the price by the anticipated lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the existing owner has owned the premises for at least twenty four months you may request that they start the process of the extension and pass it to you. You can add 90 years to the existing lease with a zero ground rent applied. You should consult your conveyancing lawyer about this.
