One can find hundreds of conveyancing outfits marketing theoretically looks to be very low prices.

About to purchase a new build flat in Thornbury. Conveyancing is daunting at the best of times but I have never purchased a new build flat before. Can you give me some examples of some of the questions asked in new build legal work.

Here is a sample of a few leasehold new build enquiries that you can expect your new-build leasehold conveyancing in Thornbury

    The Landlord must covenant to assume the management if the Management Company goes into liquidation or otherwise defaults in running the management scheme. The Vendor must covenant to keep unsold units in good repair until long leases are granted therefore.

I have been on the look out for a ground for flat up to £305k and identified one round the corner in Thornbury I like with open areas and railway links in the vicinity, however it only has 52 years unexpired on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Thornbury for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake buying a short lease?

Should you need a home loan the shortness of the lease will likely be an issue. Discount the price by the amount the lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the current owner has owned the property for at least twenty four months you may ask them to start the process of the extension and then assign it to you. You can add 90 years to the existing lease term and have £0 ground rent by law. You should consult your conveyancing lawyer about this.

I was advised by a number of property agents in Thornbury to choose a property lawyer using your seach tool. What’s the financial upside for Estate Agents to market your lawyers over and above alternative conveyancing organisations?

We don’t give any referral fee for pointing buyers and sellers to this site. We found it would be just too difficult to pay a commission as members of the public would think, ‘Why is the agent getting a kickback? Why am I not getting any benefit too?’ We would prefer to grow our business on genuine recommendations.

What happens where there is a problem with the searches carried out as part of our conveyancing in Thornbury?

Ordinarily, most problems revealed in Thornbury conveyancing search results can be dealt with before completion or title insurance may be put on cover. You should remember that although you intend on purchasing the premises and might be content to accept the search results, your building society or bank may not, and ultimately the decision rests with them.
