How does conveyancing in Uttoxeter differ for new build properties?

Most buyers of new build property in Uttoxeter contact us having been asked by the developer to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the house is constructed. This is because house builders in Uttoxeter typically 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 used to new build conveyancing in Uttoxeter or who has acted in the same development.

Over the last few months I have been searching for a ground for flat up to £235,500 and identified one close by in Uttoxeter I like with a park and station nearby, the downside is that it only has 61 years unexpired on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Uttoxeter suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error acquiring a short lease?

If you need a home loan the shortness of the lease will be an issue. Discount the price by the expected lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the current proprietor has owned the property for at least twenty four months you may request that they commence the lease extension formalities and pass it to you. You can add 90 years to the current lease with a zero ground rent applied. You should consult your conveyancing lawyer about this matter.

My 20yr old son is embarking on her first house purchase, the home loan was agreed last week in principle. After the seller agreed the offer on the flat we telephoned the mortgage institution to progress the mortgage application. I was disappointed to learn that mortgage lenders do not accept all conveyancer, they need to be on their approved list, is this legal?

Banks ordinarily restrict either the type or the number of conveyancing practices on their approved list of lawyers. Typical examples of such restriction(s) being that a firm must have two or more partners. In addition to restricting the type of firm, some have decided to limit the number of firms they use to represent them. You should note that lenders have no responsibility for the quality of advice provided by any Uttoxeter solicitor on their panel. Mortgage fraud was a key driver in the rationalisation of conveyancing panels a few years ago and whilst there are differing views about the extent of solicitor involvement in some of that fraud. Statistics from the Land Registry reveal that thousands of law firms only carry out one or two conveyances a year. Those supporting conveyancing panel cuts ask why law firms should have the right to be on a Lender panel when clearly, conveyancing is not their speciality. To put it another way; would you want a conveyancing solicitor to represent you if you were charged with a crime? Presumably not.
