How does conveyancing in Winsford differ for new build properties?

Most buyers of new build or newly converted property in Winsford come to us having been asked by the developer to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the property is completed. This is because builders in Winsford typically acquire 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 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 Winsford or who has acted in the same development.

We're novice buyers - had an offer accepted, yet the property agent informed us that the owners will only move forward if we use the agent's chosen conveyancers as they need an ‘expedited deal’. We would rather use a high street conveyancer with experience of conveyancing in Winsford

It is highly unlikely the vendors are driving this. If they require ‘a quick sale', taking such a hostile approach to a genuine buyer is is going to put the whole deal at risk. Avoid the agents and go straight to the owners and explain that (a)you are keen to buy (b)you are excited to move forward, with mortgage lined up © you have nothing to sell (d) you wish to move quickly (e)but you intend to appoint your own,trusted Winsford conveyancing lawyers - not the ones that will provide the negotiator at the agency a referral fee or hit his conveyancing thresholds pre-set by senior management.
